Obsessed Much???

I'm sure we all remember when we were little. The specific things that we were into. It could have been Cabbage Patch Kids, Barbies, GI Joe or Star Wars. Growing up in this generation is FAR different from what I remember. No...this is NOT going to be a blog bashing THIS generation vs. THAT generation. Maybe it's just MY boys that dance to the beat of a different drummer (that drummer is Weenie, by the way). I'm convinced that the weirdness level is genetic...because I don't remember being obsessed over weird stuff.

Weird obsession number 1:

GODZILLA














I don't know HOW this started, but I'm POSITIVE Weenie was the one that introduced it. Now...I can't get away from it. There are Godzilla toys everywhere. Little Godzilla figurines lined up and ready to do battle. When I hear squealing from Toblerone, I can pretty much count on a fight between him and Triscuit over a STUPID Godzilla toy. Seriously...do you all REMEMBER seeing these movies? I remember my Dad watching a Godzilla movie when I was young. I walked into the room sat down to watch it with him and couldn't handle it. It was cheesy back THEN....and I was 9! What IS funny, is how Toblerone asks to watch Godzilla. The kid understands almost EVERYTHING you say, yet he still refuses to talk. When he wants to watch Godzilla he will come over to me, grab my finger, pull me over to where the DVD's are and say "ROAR". We have 4 different Godzilla movies...and he knows which one he wants to watch by LOOKING at the DVD cover. If I choose the wrong one...OH MY....you better watch out because a FIT will ensue shortly after he realizes the AWFUL mistake Mum has made! Obsessed much???

Weird Obsession number 2:

BATMAN



















No...I'm not talking about the "cool" Batman. You know...the ones that have been released within the last 20 years? I'm talking about THIS Batman:
















HOLY RETARDED SERIES, BATMAN! YES...the ever so LAME series from the 1960's. Weenie wanted all of us to sit down as a family and watch the DVD. My answer was..."Uh......NO." Do you blame me?

Weird Obsession number 3:

STITCH



















This one, I don't mind so much. Usually, the Disney movies are pretty good....but when you watch them OVER and OVER and OVER again, they lose their "cuteness". This seems to be one of Toblerone's favorites right now. It's either OTCH (Stitch) or ROAR. Again...he knows which one he wants just by LOOKING at the cover and a colossal fit will be thrown if Mum doesn't get it right. Oh...and I know this is a little off topic, but tell me something. Do you think this cat looks like it's one of Jumba's twisted experiments?




















It's cute....in a creepy sort of way.

Weird Obsession number 4:

NEMO

Again, Disney. Yes, it's a cute movie.....if watched once in a blue moon. But there is no such thing as variety to a two year old. It's also VERY difficult to differentiate between Elmo and Nemo. They are both "Melmo". Let me tell you....you show him Elmo when he wants Nemo? OH MAN!

Weird Obsession number 5:

MOMMY

Yes...that would be me....and no I'm not posting another picture of me on this blog. I did it once...if you want to see it again, go down a few posts. Toblerone is definitely a Mama's boy. He loves Weenie, don't get me wrong, but NO ONE can do ANYTHING to him/with him except MOMMY. Weenie can't put him to bed, he can't brush his teeth....he can't even sit with him. Toblerone just cries like his heart is being ripped out if Weenie attempts the above. He will rough house with Weenie and play with Weenie...but he will NOT let Weenie love on him. In Toblerone's eyes...I'm HIS...and NO ONE ELSE CAN TOUCH ME (Triscuit included). This has caused further tension between the boys. Triscuit is a snuggle bug and likes to sit with me. Toblerone gets SO mad if Triscuit sits next to me. When I tell Toblerone to "go see Daddy"....OH LORDY! The tears start flowing and he starts finding things to throw. He will also sit on the floor and kick his feet. That doesn't work with me...I just ignore him (which makes him MORE angry). He also gets VERY upset when he sees Weenie kissing me or hugging me. If he can reach us, he will step RIGHT in between. Please don't think Weenie is an ogre...cause he's not. Weenie is a VERY loving father and only disciplines when it is ABSOLUTELY necessary, so I don't see WHAT the problem is. Maybe it's the fact that I'm at home ALL the time with him. I keep expecting him to let go of the apron strings the older he gets...but that's NOT the case. He's getting WORSE. I actually DON'T know what to do to ease his anxiety.














Imagine a two year old the size of a 4 year old CLINGING on to you??? He's cute, yes, but I'm getting numerous bruises from his inability to let go (no...that's NOT a metaphor. I'm literally getting BRUISES from him).

Any suggestions???
