From the Mouths of Babes...

So I'm discovering William is now full of little sayings that he picks up either from us or from his sitter or movies and these little pearls are ones that I just don't want to forget. Coming from a full-fledged adult they might seem innocuous enough, but from a little 2 year old... precious. Below are some of the best things I've heard from him as of late:

"Let's go help the people mommy!" - said as we passed a horrific accident and I explained the ambulance helped people with "owies".

"Don't eat the cheese off, eat it as a sandwich!" - said as he handed me the "sandwich" that he cooked for me in his play kitchen... apparently this instruction is one he often hears in daycare.

"I smell Daddy. Daddy stinky... he tooted." - said in response to my question, "did you know Daddy slept with you last night?"

"I smell mommy, mommy stinky" - said last night as I lay down next to him to hear a bedtime story.

"I need my belly stuff!" - said constantly because he loves the taste of children's Tums.

"No, mommy... don't go downstairs do stuff. Stay longer" - said when I try to leave his room and wish him goodnight.

"Hurry mommy! Drive fast! Go! Faster! Open the garage, fast!" - said last night as we spotted a stray (and not healthy looking) dog walking down the street.

"I need Batman ungella (umbrella)" - said whether or not it's raining.

"Mommy... come upstairs!" - said when it's bedtime and it's Daddy's turn to read to him, he's going through mommy attachment right now.

"Good morning mommy! I sleep well!" - said to me pretty much every morning now.

"It not working!" - said as he attempted to use a napkin to scrub a freckle from my arm.

"Hey moon! Hey moon! Wat you doing up there?" - said to the moon that he spotted as we were leaving daycare just the other day.

"I peeped!" - said when he peed in the big potty recently.

These are the sayings I want to remember. I figure I'd better start a list as other mommies have told me that the sayings will just get better over the next year or so. God I love motherhood!
