I have to share with you a conversation I had with my grandson on the phone the other day. He is 5 soon to be 6 in December. Now he has been an only child for 5 years and seems to like it or at least has gotten used to it. His parents, my older son and daughter in law are expecting in November, the 28th to be exact. At first my grandson was very happy about having a baby until he found out it was a girl, then all bets were off. lol This past summer they kept my daughter's little girl while she went though cancer treatment and he really loved having her there. So his attitude came as a surprise to us. Anyhow I was talking to him on the phone and asked him if he was excited about the baby and he had a very distinctive NO. I asked him why he changed his mind he he said "because it's a stoopid girl baby" I spell stupid like that because he drags it out like that. So I said "awe aren't you happy about having a little sister?" He said "NO I'm gonna break off her arm and throw her in the dumpster" So I told him that I loved having a big brother and he'll be that big brother to his sister and he said, "that stoopid girl baby isn't touching or playing with any of my toys." Now between me laughing so hard because deep down inside I know he doesn't mean it, and him saying "Grandma are you crying about the stoopid girl baby too?" I said no grandma is excited about the girl baby, a pretty little sister for you and grandma can buy her pretty dresses to wear, and I'll buy you something too of course." He said "I'll take those stoopid dresses and throw them in the stoopid dumpster with that stoopid girl baby." The conversation was actually very funny.
Then we got to talking about what he would name her if he let her come home and he said "poophead dragon" I think this is where I spit soda on my screen as I was sitting by my computer. So I said to him "don't you want to give her a pretty little girls name?" He said "nope she's a stoopid girl and she can lay in the dumpster and her name is poophead dragon." Needless to say I tried to change the subject after that. So we talked about school, but he doesn't like that because he's bored............Out of the mouths of babes.

OMG that is too funny and so cute. Gotta love the mind of a 5 year old.
Awwww. I'm sure his attitude will change. My son didn't have have the best reaction when he got his little sister just before he turned 6 but it all worked out, now they love each other like only a brother and sister can with a little cat/dog fighting in between.
"poophead dragon"
a classic! LOL

lol He'll come around when he sees that precious baby. At least I hope so! What a funny kid.
Oh dear, I am not sure what to say. Hopefully he will come around when the baby is here.
He'll get used to it! lol They all do through that stage when a new baby comes on the scene.
