An Interview with Camden (2.5 years old)

What's your name?
Answer: Tamen.
Translation: Camden.

What's your favorite toy to play with?
Answer: Soop and Lofty!
Translation: Scoop and Lofty, from Bob the Builder (a new obsession, though I don't think it's on the air anymore. Thank goodness for YouTube and DVDs.)

What's your favorite show to watch on TV?
Answer: New Atty Pig!
Translation: New episodes of Busytown Mysteries (on PBS) which stars cats and pigs as the main characters.

What's your favorite book to read?
Answer: Ummm......[insert loooong pause here].....Really big poop one!
Translation: "Everyone Poops". Is anyone really surprised by this answer after my last few entries?

Whose house do you like to play at?
Answer: Wawa's house!
Translation: His cousin Will's house. Camden can clearly say "Will", but still insists on calling him "Wawa". Same with our dog, Maggie. He can say Maggie with no problem, but still calls her "Baby". I have to admit that I kind of love these nicknames and hope they stick around for a while.

Where do you like to go in the car?
Answer: To get pancakes!
Translation: I frequent the McDonald's drive-thru for breakfast more often than I care to admit.

What's your favorite color?
Answer: Yella!
Translation: Yellow!

What's your favorite thing to eat?
Answer: Eat candy! Blue candy!
Translation: I am stumped. I was totally expecting his answer to be cookies or brownies or maybe even yogurt. I have no idea what "blue candy" he's referring to, but he was excited by it.

What's your baby sister's name?
Answer: Matey!
Translation: Macey!

How old are you?
Answer: Six.
Translation: If you ask him how old anyone is turning on his/her birthday, his answer is always one or sixty. Except for him-- apparently, he's six. Who knew.

What---
Answer: You all done, Mommy?
Translation: This interview is over.

How incredibly adorable! I love this idea for a post. It's so funny to ask little kiddos questions because some of the answers are sure to suprise or touch your heart. Super fab! You'll have to do it again. :)

Did you find the questions somewhere or just make up your own? I read one of these a while back and it was a video interview. Pretty sure Gage wouldn't sit for that and would rather see everything I'm recording. I'd love to do this, but don't want to copy you too much, maybe next month. fyi, typo in your post title!

Ok Amy, I give up--where's my typo?! Because I said he's 2.5 instead of 2 yrs, 7 months? I meant 2.5 as two and a half, not 2 yrs, 5 months. If there's something else, tell me because typos drive me crazy.

I made up the questions. Feel free to steal them. I really want to get it on video too!
