Quirks

(I wrote this post about a month ago but never shared it)

Sure, we all have quirks - strange things that we do or like that make us who we are. Some of us have more than others, and some are more annoying than others, but I think Bo may win the prize for this having the most. Here is a list of things that are all Bo, some endearing, some annoying and some just down right weird . . .

- ketchup makes anything taste better, even blueberries
- likes to sit in his poop (because it's soft and he wants to hug it)
- itches from mosquito bites and dinosaur bites
- favorite dinosaur is the T-Rex because it is "bad"
- puts up a fight to do almost anything, nothing is ever easy (brush teeth, change diaper, etc)
- loves airplanes except ones with propellers
- hates to talk on the phone (will hide his head in shyness)
- likes blueberry muffins without the blueberries
- will eat bananas whole but not cut up
- hates red garbage trucks, likes green ones
- can't sleep if his pillow is hot (has to turn it over to the cool side)
