Belly Monster

We were sitting on the couch last night after dinner, as we do every night, when Jordan stopped playing with his toys. He walked over to Dave, looked up, and started screaming. Not like your normal baby scream; not like the "something's wrong" scream; but a scream like the Jim Carrey's "most annoying sound in the world" scream. We asked him if he wanted water. The screaming continued. We asked him if he was hungry. Screaming still. We asked if he wanted to snuggle, if he wanted to go to bed, if he wanted to play. The most annoying sound in the world was still reverberating through our living room. So Dave stood up. The screaming stopped. Sounds of excitement ensued. "Oooooh... oh ho ho.... oooooooo!" And Jordan ran into the kitchen, glancing back to see that Daddy was following him every couple of steps. When he was sure Daddy was going to continue following him, he ran over to the pantry and pointed up. That's where we keep the stash of Jelly Belly's.
