After work today, Corey and I went over to our friends the Vigues’s house for dinner and some fun.  We hadn’t seen the Vigues in almost a month because they’ve been in New Jersey for the past three weeks.

While Ali was making dinner, as usual not letting me help with anything :roll: , I played with Jack in his toy room.  He’s entered the “why” stage, which made for some fun conversation. Here’s part of the conversation we had in his toy room:

Jack: “Spongebob had to go away.” (He’s referring to our Spongebob movie I let him watch once for about 15 minutes when he wasn’t even two years old yet.)
Me: “Yep, Spongebob did go away.”
Jack: “Why?”
Me: (Thinking, “How do I explain to an almost four year old that it’s because Spongbob’s a bad influence?  Hmmm, I don’t.  Just make something up.”) “Because my friend wanted Spongebob, so I gave it to her.”
Jack: “Why?”
Me: “Because I wanted to give it to her.”
Jack: “Who’s your friend?”
Me: “Her name is Megan.”
Jack: “Is Aunt Meagan your friend?”
Me: “Yes, Aunt Meagan is my friend, but Aunt Meagan isn’t the same Megan I gave Spongebob to.  I gave Spongebob to my other friend Megan.  Actually, Megan’s my niece.”
Jack: “I have a niece.”
Me: “You do?”
Jack: “Nieces are like aunts and you’re my aunt.”
Me: “I am your aunt.”
Jack: “And, you’re my friend.”
Me: “I am your friend.”
Jack: “And, you can come over for my birthday and have some cake.”
Me: “I’d love to come over for your birthday and have some cake.”

After Jack and Sheridan went to bed, Ali and Tyler proceeded to tell Corey and me that the other day Jack said something along the lines of: “I need to hang out with Uncle Corey and Aunt Jenni by myself.” :lol: This is just so funny because while I was talking to him on the phone yesterday, he told me, “Well, maybe someday we can hang out.”

What a cute kid! :D You really got to love him!  I can’t wait until Sheridan starts saying stuff like that too.
