Gender Differences

After 30 months of blissful ignorance, Wyatt now notices gender differences, specifically the main anatomical differences between men and women. He now takes great pains to point them out whenever possible, e.g., at the grocery store, he tells people behind us in line, "Dada have a penis. Mama have no penis."  He will also observe, apropos of nothing, "Uncle John have no penis." He is aware, though, that everyone has a butt, and points out that Mama has a butt, Dada has a butt, he has a butt, and the cat has a butt.

 

Another favorite pastime is listening to Dada Mukit, which is not an experimental band, but rather his dad's rock band. He listened to this disc once, liked it, and now demands to hear it every time he is in the car or at home. This CD was once an object of pride for both parents, but is now as boring and familiar as any Dora or Backyardigans show. Above, you can see Wyatt rockin' out and dancing to one of his favorite tracks on the disc. 

Potty training is going OK, but slowly, and I don't think we'll be diaper-free any time in the near future.
