Fear the T-Rex!

Jamie is very much in the dinosaur phase right now and the particular fascination with the T-Rex is in full force. He was given a dinosaur book a while back and was already enthralled, primarily by the ones that had "shark teeth" as he used to put it. But there was also some fear there. Then for a while he would tell us that he and his friends had been hunting T-Rexes on the playground at school. Well, things have certainly shifted now as hunted has become hunter. Jamie now likes for all of us to stomp around the house pretending to be T-Rexes looking for food (woobies are not to be thought of as prey, however). Even Connor tries to do this, picking his right leg up a little higher and jerkily bringing it down. Car stories on the way to school have reflected this shift as well as they are now to be about a family of T-Rexes. In particular, lately they have been hunting Triceratops. Sounds like someone is getting a little more comfortable with the idea of the food chain, as long as he's on top!
