"Peter Hoondyke"

So Cameron has taken on an alter-ego, He has become Peter Thorndyke.

What was that?, you don't know Peter?

Go to your local Library and rent the original Herbie the Love BUG.

The character Peter Thorndyke is Herbie's nemesis in the movie and is always grouchy (aka gouchy)

So now that you might have an idea who this movie character is (he is the same guy that plays "Mr. Banks" in Mary Poppins) let me share a story about my little Peer Hoondyke. This actually happened last week and I have been horrible about blogging lately, I blame it on the 3 little people that have all been sick for the past 2 weeks. anywho back to the story, So last Monday I had to take Hayden to the DR for a follow up after taking him to the ER over the weekend, when we a walked into the office Cameron announced with eye brows knitted up, that he was "Peer Hoondyke, I'm gouchy", then when the nurse calls us back he tells nurse Jamie "I'm gouchy Peer Hoondyke". He states this fact again when Dr Meyers comes into the room. "Peer" is not doing to bad, until Dr. Meyer and I start to discuss this nasty bug that Hayden has that has been going through the whole town, while we are discussing this "Peer Hoondyke" walks up to Dr. Meyers and tromps on her foot. All while declaring to be "Hoondyke" I wanted to pull my lip over my head and swallow! After as stern of a scolding as one child can get in front of the Dr. He was firmly placed in the chair and was told to apologize to the good Dr. He complied and we left as soon as possible.

Grouchy Peter Throndike!

That is so funny! How is he doing and what the heck was making him run such a high fever? I hope you guys are all getting better. Maybe once you have gotten this bug your family wont get it again.

When I went to Pre-K screening I told my parents I was going to tell them that my name was Gary Gnu and that I was seven.
