Hilarious!!!!

So we have had the son for 2 weeks and it has been a blast. he has adjusted so well and has been so much fun to spend time with.  He has really become a Daddy's boy and I know Hubbs is just eating it up!  Don't get me wrong he is a total 4 year old, and we are in a new arguing stage but he really is such a great kid, and I can't even imagine how hard it is for him to be in such a different environment but you would never know it.  He acts like he has lived with us always, he loves his school, and chatters non-stop.  He has been listening to us really well, and goes to bed every night and just passes out.

He is so excited about his little sister and when he gives me kisses and hugs at night he kisses my belly and talks to her, it is so precious.

He finally had his call with PEG the other night and I was worried about him.  Last summer she would give him guilt trips and bring up every friend he had and how she had seen them and how they missed him.  It was like she was trying to make him sad.  Surprisingly she remembered to call which was a new thing, and Hubbs answered the call and handed the phone to the son.  You could tell he was expecting us to put it on speakerphone like his mom always does, but he is old enough and knows how to talk on the phone so there is no need for speakerphone.

I could hear what PEG was asking him, and he was just answering all of her questions, not always with the right answer but it was cute.  She was drilling him for information and it was funny because he kept calling her dad, and then he would correct himself and say mom.  After a few minutes he looked at Hubbs and said, "Daddy I am done talkin, I want to go play."  So Hubbs said well tell your mom you love her and bye bye.  So he said that to PEG and got off the phone.  Hubbs and I just looked at each other in shock.  The son never gets off the phone with his mom.  He does that to us a lot, and usually seems like he is in a bad mood with her but with us he is happy and wanted to get back to playing.

Apparently it shocked PEG as well because she texted something to Hubbs about how good the schools ranked in our area in the Newsweek article and how that really impressed her.  For those who have read this blog, PEG likes to think she is a genius, loves to act like she is very politically involved, she claims on her Facebook she only reads theoritical (Yes that is how she spelled it HA!) books, and you can just tell she thinks she is so smart.  She is one of those people that just tries so hard to appear smart, you know what I am taking about?  She thinks getting an education is the best thing you can do for yourself, and loves to stress how important school is, yet she wanted to hold the son back.  Its like she says one thing, but does something else.  I am all for getting an education, I graduated from a Big 12 college with a business and finance degree, but its what you do with your degree and the level of common sense you have that makes you successful.  I just think its important to be well rounded and if you were really that smart you would use spell check on your emails and not sound like a complete idiot half the time.

Anyway, she has always bashed schools in our area, claiming we have a crappy school system and she would never move here because of that.  Yet where she lives their schools are not even ranked and she moved to the worst school district in her area, again says one thing, but does another.

So I laughed because her text to Hubbs telling him how many of our schools ranked in the top 500 list (Our district was ranked 300 with 97% graduating rate, 95% go to college, and a 16 to 1 student teacher ratio with an average SAT score of 1600, not bad if you ask me!) and how she is actually impressed by that is her way of saying, if the son ever wanted to come live with us (I think that call scared her) she wants to make it seem it is her idea, and I guess she would move here or something.  It just made me laugh, I know what she is thinking and its comical.

Then after that text an hour later she sent one saying, "Send me a picture of peanut when she arrives :) so excited for you guys and the son! He really good with babies."  (Again how she wrote it)

I love when we have the son, PEG doesn't have any power and we don't have to rely on her to communicate with the son, it is such a breath of fresh air and I am so excited the son gets to be here for the birth of peanut.

Well good news is we go in at 7:30am on Friday!!!  I am so excited, I can't wait to meet her, and be a family of four.  :)
