tuna fish, roly poly and crab

Nate has discovered roly polies or we call them..potato bugs. He can spend endless hours looking for them in our backyard. He also loves hunting for snails. One time he washed the roly poly and told me that it went swimming. Of course, it drowned but Nate said he was asleep. I couldn't break his heart by telling him it died so I told him we should put him outside so that he can go to bed. Luckily he agreed.

Nathan also likes the song "slippery fish". He loves the tuna fish part of the song. So whenever he sees any fish, it's automatically a tuna fish. Auntie Abby bought him a beta fish and we asked him what his name was. At first he named him Juan then he changed his mind and named him Tuna Fish...surprise, surprise.

We've also gone crabbing twice and he loves the crabs. So today I was trying to eat crab for dinner. I started by taking off the claw and Nathan went into hysterics. Apparently, he was attached to the crab. I've never seen him so upset before. I offered him another crab but of course he wanted the one that I broke the claw off. After he settled down, he asked for a bandaid because the crab has a boo-boo.

I also bought him rain boots for the winter and that's all he wants to wear now. So he's typically in a tank top, shorts, and rain boots. Whenever he is out in public...everyone is in hysterics. He just loves them and he knows how to flaunt it!
