Kirk is all about Superman right now. Mr. b got the idea into his head that he’d enjoy the original 1978 Superman. Which he most definitely did. So we’ve been slowly Netflixing them all, and some Justice Leagues thrown in for good measure, just watching Superman III this weekend. Kirk is dead set on being Superman for Halloween and has already scoped out the costumes at Target. But I won’t even consider buying one until it’s at least October. Which means that everyday Kirk has asked, “Is it still September? Is next day October? Then I’m gonna get my Superman costume!” (Complete with fist pump into the air.) Yeah, like I’m running down there on the First to buy it for him.
Mr. b, being the genius/sucker that he is, figured we could buy some time if we got Kirk some Superman pajamas. Obviously Kirk was totally down with that idea. And honestly, he needs new jammies anyways. While we were picking them out last night we also checked the DVD aisle. Because Daddy remembered seeing a special DVD set of all 4 movies for a mere $9.99 and sure enough, we went ahead and bought that, too. Supergirl is coming next from Netflix.
Clearly some Superman had to be watched before bed, while wearing brand new pjs. Kirk wanted to see “baby Superman, his hair is so funny” so the first movie it was. During which time he announced to us that “Jor-El is a really great name for a daddy. When I’m a daddy I’m gonna name my son Jor-El.” I don’t really have a problem with that. I mean, my son is named Kirk.

I have a Superman doll at my desk right now, so I'm totally feeling the good Captain on this.
I'm sure he's very jealous of your Superman action figure. Heh.
Honestly, it's been fun to delve into that mythology again. I always focus on Wonder Woman and Green Lantern when dealing with the DC universe. Chris and I were nerding out on Kryptonian physiology nitpicks during lunch today. Good times.
I am delighted Kirkie is learning about the Superman of all men. I am taken back to the good ole days of UndeRoos.

Those are AWESOME!!! I had Wonder Woman underoos and my best cousin had Superman underoos and we'd play outside at Grandma's house in them. Good times.
I too had Wonder Woman. We rule!
Your son is so cute, bel. :D
I did not have UnderRoos when I was a kid, so I bought some adult version ones (WW, of course!) when I saw them online a few years ago.
Adult underoos? Do tell!
