New member of the family

MD has decided that one of his toys is his new sibling (See post below). Fred the dog is never far from MD and gets to go through many of life's lessons right along with MD. Some of our latest experiences have gone as follows:

MD asks his daddy for cheerios. Michael gets up and gets him a bowl but upon placing it in front of MD he realizes that MD is giving him a dirty look-"Chee-ros for doggy!" he says pointing. Michael then notices Fred the dog sitting in the chair next to him.

MD, though still wanting nothing to do with potty training, has no problem coming and sitting on his kiddo toilet. The other day as I was walking past the bathroom I see MD shaking a finger at his pal Fred (Who was sitting on his toilet) and saying very crossly "Doggy-You go PEE PEE! Pee Pee potty!"


And last after MD got in trouble and was sent to do a time out he dragged Fred with him, sat him next to him and folded his arms. Then in the same tone he heard me use he tells Fred "Trouble! you in Time out! No hit! One....Two....mumble mumble.... eight....nine "

I have a feeling that Fred is about to become the Hobbes (From Calvin and Hobbes) in this relationship.
