-When Ian was a baby, John made the rule that if they were with company, Sherlock wasn't allowed to hold Ian unless he was holding him for a reason (to take Ian to be changed or something), or if Ian wanted to be held by Sherlock.
-This rule was because if it was up to him, Sherlock would hog Ian and not share him with anyone else. He hated when people touched his son. John felt it was fair for other people to be able to hold him or play with him.
-Sherlock and John aren't religious men, but they still wanted Ian to have a 'godparent' figure, so when Ian was born, they asked Greg to be his Godfather. Greg took his duties seriously by teaching Ian things John and Sherlock wouldn't approve of (like dumb sayings and words).
-Molly was chosen to be Ian's godmother because of everything shed done for John and Sherlock. She fulfilled her duties by offering to babysit all the time.
-They were really good about giving their son sweets. He didn't have anything with too much sugar until his first birthday, and after that it was a slow and steady process for him to actually want anything sweet. And then he turned three and Sherlock decided, "Hey, what the hell? Here son, have a cookie." And then that hell went to hand basket because they kid became as big a sweets monster as the Cookie Monster. Or his Daddy.
-Ian flushed John's cell phone down the toilet once. It was actually revenge because John hurt Sherlock's feelings. The next day, Ian flushed his keys, then his glasses, then his toothbrush all in the same day.
-Ian liked to feed the dog his food because he thought it was funny when John yelled, "No! Stop feeding the dog!"
-Ian once fought with a teacher because his last name very much is Holmes-Watson but on her student roster and in the school system he was recognized as Holmes. He made them take him out of that school and into another.
-Ian broke his first bone when he was nine. He broke his arm falling off the monkey bars at school. Ian still really wanted to play football, but was asked to not play the rest of the season because he 'accidentally' hit the coach's kid in the eye. (It wasn't an accident; the coach's kid was an asshole).
-Ian cut his own hair when he was four. It wasn't a lot, just a bit in the front. But of course John noticed. John had to get it trimmed to even out, as much as it pained him that someone was touching Ian's hair.
-They thought about moving into a newer, bigger flat when Ian was ten. Ian locked himself in his room for six hours until John agreed not to move.
-Ian made John and Sherlock Mother's Day gifts every year in school because of course he wanted to participate with the class. A few kids would make fun of him at this point, but Ian always had a quick and clever retort that shut the kids up.
-John and Sherlock always appreciated the gifts Ian made. They have a box full of them in their closet.
-Ian always made breakfast with one of his dads on the morning of the other dad's birthday. He knew their favorites: Sherlock's chocolate chip pancakes and John's eggs, toast, and bacon.
-Ian always got a cupcake for breakfast on his birthday courtesy of Mrs. Hudson.
