diamond kenny prima hits the snooze

Kenny woke up from his nap today and pleaded with me for five more minutes. I believe his exact words were, "Back to sleep. Want to go back to sleep." So I let him. Hey, he may have been coming off of a three and a half hour nap, but I have a great respect for the power of the snooze button. Even if that snooze button is me.

When Kenny re-awoke, about ten minutes later, he was in a slightly better mood. He asked where Mommy was, and I explained that she was downstairs getting his lunch/dinner ready. He was fairly okay with that, but when he heard her coming up the stairs he got a lot more excited. So excited, that when she entered the room, he instructed her to usher me out.

"Bye-bye, Daddy," he said, while shooing me away.

I tried my best not to be offended, and opted to stick around. Then, since my popularity was already at an apparent low, I offered up that we should hit the potty before heading downstairs.

"NO POTTY! NO POTTY! NO POTTY!" came the politely screamed reply.

His cries of "no potty" sounded a bit like "no body," so Overboard and I immediately began to serenade him with a slightly altered version of "I ain't got nobody":

"I ain't got nooooo-pootttttttyyyyy...no potty for me, no potty for me..." and so on.

He was not amused, but we were. Which was enough for us.

Oh yeah, in the end, I flipped him upside down and carried him into the bathroom.

Bop. Boozee, boozee, bop. Zidee bop.
