My husband has brainwashed my child. I'm going insane.

The boy is obsessed with baseball, and it?s driving me inside. Every night, we come home from daycare, it goes like this:

PAC: Mommeeee!!

ME: Yes baby?

PAC: Deebee (tv)

ME: Okay, I think Dora?s on.

PAC: Mommeeee!!

ME: Yes?

PAC: No. Mommeee. Baybawl (baseball)

Mind you, I had to DVR 2 baseball games because, well, it?s not on 24/7 but he doesn?t understand that.

After he eats dinner:

PAC: Mommeee!! Pbay (play)

ME: Okay, let?s play trains.

PAC: No. Baybawl. (runs and grabs bat and ball. Gives me ball, and makes me put on very uncomfortable plastic fireman?s hat, because, you know, I?m the pitcher/catcher)

Commence ?pitching.? He gets into batting stance. Makes contact about 30% of the time. ?Runs the bases? 100% of the time. My poor dogs scatter and PAC throws the bat down. PAC runs counterclockwise in circles about 7 times before sliding onto the floor headfirst, yelling ?dafe? (safe).


Repeat.

All. Day. Long.

I never thought I?d miss Noggin. Really.

And I need to get this on video. I promise I will this weekend. Because, well, you won't believe it till you see it. It's insane. He's already learned how to "boo" anyone that's not a Yankee, says "Hip Hip, Jorge" and claps 5 times after you say "Let's go Yankees!"

    That's cute.  My bff's son is into baseball too and when the pitcher throws it he swings his arms like he is hitting the ball.

    It's not as cute as it would seem. I've been clocked more often by bats than i care to admit. and though I'm a baseball fan, I don't need it 24/7. Ugh.

    Last night, we were outside. It was still light out but the moon was out. He kept swinging at the air, trying to hit the moon. For 15 minutes.
