Mass Media Got Our Son

David has built a solid repertoire of words and songs over his first two years. If he had normal parents, he'd sing "Mary had a little lamb", or "Row, row, row your boat". But David doesn't have normal parents - he has us. And he picks up very quickly on the things we say.

This is a compilation Pam put together of different songs / phrases he has picked up.



For those of you without children, the Elmo song is:
La la la la, la la la la, elmo's world
Elmo loves his goldfish
His crayon too
That's Elmo's world

The other bit is a Chappelle show bit, where he plays Samuel Jackson selling Samuel Jackson Beer. Here's the clip. He heard us saying "It's my beer" and started copying it. We didn't really want him saying "It'll get you drunk", but since he was eating a fiber-one bar at the time (which causes nasty gastric cramping and other colonic fun-ness), we changed it to "It'll make you poop". He picked that up pretty quick.

Matt Damon is from TeamAmerica (the south park guys). They have a retarded Matt Damon that basically interacts by saying his name over and over again. And "chicken pot pie" is from Just Shoot Me. We'll teach him the line "My pants are tight" next.

yeah you guys are far from normal... but he is so darn cute, you have to love him. I love all his little songs and sayings. I love taking my little man to the store and he yells out it will make you poop.

Hehe!! Well just to rewind back in time. I believe you were in a rocking chair when you were singing "She'll be coming around the moutain, drinking daddy's beer"!! Teach him that one!! Love you!
