Little Genius

Fox is a little genius. He has put away childish things, like goldfish crackers and blocks, in order to have more time to spend pondering the economy, the war, tax policies, and the upcoming election. Today, three times he identified Barack Obama on the tv and in Time magazine. It was amazing. He sort of says "Obamama" but still, that rocks. So now, he can quack, moo, bark, and identify the (knock wood) future president. Below, he is deep in thought about the current political climate.


And here he is pretending to be a witch. I guess he hasn't entirely put away childish things.


But he is working on growing a goatee. Until he can get it to come in a little thicker, this Oreo beard will have to do.

It's definite: Fox recognizes Barack Obama and can say his name. Today at the book store I showed him two different book covers at separate times, and he pointed and said some form of "Bama" (sometimes it sounds like "uuu-BAH-ma" and sometimes "BAH-MA-Ma").

Fox is very good at recognizing things (he can spot animals, cars, balls, and other things from very far away), but he has few words and says fewer names. I'm really surprised he picked up Obama! Glad though.
