Tot-isms

When paging through a toy store magazine and seeing a rather large picture of Barbie: "Barbie poop pants. Pee-pee, too."

When I sing "yodel-ay": "hee-hoooo" (then I die).

When resisting doing something, we ask something like "Are you going to put it away, or is Mommy going to do it?": he replies "Tot DO it." and then it gets done by him. Nice.

When a show ends, he is aware that it is over. He goes to the TV, turns it off and shouts at the TV, "BYE, NEMO!" (or whatever show he is watching).

When counting, he touches each item and says, "Won, won, won, won..." Each individual item is one by itself. He counts in binary.

When we arrive at daycare everyday, he kisses his favorite silky then flings it across the car and says, "Bye Sikah. Mom, I throw Sikah HIGH!"



When he slams his Buzz.Lightyear toy against the door of my car (which he has been asked not to do), "No, Buzz. No kick door!" I appreciate that he is taking care of Buzz's kicking problem. This also slays me.

When Teen leaves, "BYE, TEEN!!!! SEE YA!"

When loving on our dogs (which he generally refers to collectively as NahlaShadie), "I hug NahlaShadie."

When rolling trucks, he intentionally crashes them, then tells on or the other, "Be nice, truck" and makes them kiss and make up..."Kiss. Wake up." (then I die, again).

He is loving and funny and mischevious and energetic and an absolute light in our lives.
