rocket man

Garrett is currently obsessed with rocket ships, which he pronounces more like crocket chips.

At dinnertime, when he is being picky and difficult, he requests that we spoon-feed him rocket ship bites. 3-2-1...blastoff!...and into his mouth.

He loves to wear his rocket ship shirt.



His current number one movie request is Wallace and Gromit's A Grand Day Out, which features a big orange crocket chip. (And also his favorite line from the film, "No cheese, Gromit!" which he repeats to himself over and over throughout the day.)




And, as Wallace would say, speaking of which...

Remember Garrett's other obsession with Ratatouille? Well, he's still at it. After my mom watched a video of Garrett playing with his toy food and pretending he had a Remy-like rat helping him, she brought with her to Brooklyn the most perfect addition to his collection of kitchen equipment: a tiny rubber mouse. Sometimes Garrett likes to keep it on the counter among his toy food as he pretends to cook (or helps me cook); other times he stashes it on his head under his "toque."
