Nico-isms

-  That little yellow bear obsessed with honey?  Pooh Winney.   That is his name.

-  The stuff you spread on a bagel?  "Cram" cheese.  I love the unintentional pun.

- We overheard him talking about "the rocket's trajectory" and nearly fell over because holy correct usage of gigantic technical words!!!  Then we heard him count down, "FOUR-jectory, FIVE-jectory...." and felt safely reassurred that he would have a normal childhood after all.

- We finally convinced Nico to eat vegetables by explaining that they make him grow taller.  It still requires coaxing at each meal.  So after successfully getting Nico to eat several bites of green stuff the other night, Rocco exclaimed, "Yeah!!!!!  We're gonna get so big by eating vegetables!!!!" and held up his hand for a high-five.  Nico joyfully smacked R's palm and yelled, "YEAH!!!  MACHO SLAP!!!!!" which is now my favorite saying of all time, ever, the end.

I believe I will be stealing "Macho Slap" for my own nefarious purposes.

Thank you Nico, you are awesome!
