Nathan's funny

A few weekends ago our AWESOME friends Mark and Jen watched Nathan for us while we did another round of delivering phonebooks (that is a WHOLE other story). Anyways, Mark, Jen, and Liam took Nathan to the zoo with them. Jen called me laughing and told me this story. After looking at many of the animals they decided to go and feed the animals. There are those little "candy" dispensers that have the food in them. Jen asked Nate if he wanted to feed the birds, Nate said "Yes". Jen put the money in the dispenser, turned the dial, retrieved the food in her hand and gave Nate a small amount of the food. Instantly, Nate popped the food into his mouth. HAHAHA. Jen said that it was like watching it happen in slow motion. She saw the food in his hand, him lifting his hand to his mouth and putting the food in his mouth all before she could react. Jen said that she told him to spit it out, which he did, and then didn't really know what to do.... HAHAHA!!!! Oh Nate. I'm thinking that because every once in a while we will get some candy from one of those machines. Nate must have thought that it was candy.

The other night Nathan and Wayne were playing hide and seek. All of a sudden Wayne comes ripping into the kitchen "Jackie, hurry and come see where Nate's hiding." I quickly followed Wayne and there in his tall skinny laundry basket were Nathan's legs hanging out the top. Where was his head? Oh, way down in the bottom of the basket... HAHAHA.... In his rush to find a hiding spot, Nate decided that it was a great idea to hide in the basket. However, Mommy or Daddy usually lifts him into the basket, feet first. Nate I guess decided he could do it himself, so in he jumped (he would have had to jump to get in) head first. HAHAHA!!!! By the time we stopped laughing he was wiggling around trying to get himself out. It seriously was the funniest thing I have ever seen. It was one of those moments when I actually debated grabbing the camera and making him wait, but the good mommy in me pulled him out by his feet..hehe..
