New Cars

J got some new cars in Disney world. I asked him if he wanted to bring them over to the twins house to show them. He responded:

"No mommy! They wanna share."

Oh no, my baby!

J was eating sweet potato fries. He put a small one in his mouth and swallowed. Next, he picks up a really long fry. And pretends that the fry can talk....

"Oh no, where that baby go? Oh no, my baby all gone. In my mouth. I need to go get it."

Shoving the large fry in his mouth, the ruthless killing of the fry family commences.

Hitting hurts!

J has been pushing his limits lately. Just a few minutes ago he pretended he was going to hit me.

Me: J, hitting hurts.

J: (preemptively trying to get out of trouble) I love you....I hit you.

Meanwhile gives me a kiss and runs off.

Feelings

J fell down today. He started to fake cry. I asked him what was wrong.

"Mommy, I fallin' down. I hurt my feelings."

Shy

While walking into the OB's office today, J hits me with this one:

"Mommy, hold my hand. I'm gonna be shy."

Happy Heart

We had a cardiology appointment today to check baby brother's heart. We told J that it looked really healthy. His response?

"Yay! Baby brother got a heart. We so happy baby brother got a heart!"

I guess we are so happy baby brother has a heart.

Taking Turns

J was picking a snack the other day. He asked for chocolate. I said no. So he picked strawberries instead. Then he said "Mickey pick chocolate. Oh, that's a good pick Mickey!" Nice try buddy. I'm not giving your toy Mickey chocolate just so you can eat it.

Dancing

J, while shaking his body and waving his arms: "shake yer boom-boom, shake yer boom-boom".

Can honestly claim I have NO idea where he got that from.

Sharing

J and Daddy are eating toast for breakfast. J says "daddy, need more toast. Bunnies outside are hungry. They wake up and need eat bre'fast. I put toast outside."

Too big...

This morning J asked to play outside. When I said yes, he asked if he could ride Lightning (his powerwheel). Our driveway is very steep, and we're not comfortable letting him ride it down the hill. So, usually Matt carries it down for him. I've told him numerous times that mommy can't carry it down the hill, only daddy can. I reminded him of that today.

He looked crestfallen, but got over it.

On the way upstairs for nap, he says "after nap, go outside and play. But no ride lightning. Mommy too big to get him!"

Guess he thinks I'm huge.
