13 days

13 days since NinjaSon stabbed anybody

It always starts with some waiter or waitress uttering the ridiculous sentence: "Look how cute the little NinjaBaby cuts his food!"
Stab
Ouch
NinjaBaby laughter
TIMEOUT!!!!

Turn the kid around in his highchair and start timing his timeout. He usually throws imaginary shuriken at all the restaurant patrons.

They smile thinking he's waving.

Sigh

So here are a list of things that NinjaBaby has been able to seriously stab with:

Any chopstick
spork
ice cream stick
spoon
paper chopstick wrapper
Popeye's Biscuit
Denny's Kids Menu
Gray's Papaya Hot Dog
Any Sandwich toothpick thingy
1 crisp deli pickle
napkin
pepperoni
sweet and low

Yeah, pretty frustrating. Don't Stab! No Stabbing! Time out for Stabbing! Time out! Time out! Time Out! Stab No More!

So I finally found something he can hold and not stab anyone with. Yeah it's a small balloon. Like water balloon size, but filled with only air. And he's happy. He still tried to kill someone with it but all it did was pop in the guys mouth. NinjaSon pulled it out in disbelief. Yeah kid, the guys gonna live. You can't stab with a balloon. That was day 1. It's now day 13 and the kid is still carrying around this little popped balloon. Still trying to figure out how to stab someone with it. I've had 13 days of relative peace. It's nice. But man keep this kid out of Gray's Papaya, seing someone stabbed with a snappy wiener is not a pretty sight.
