What did you just say?

So from my previous blog you know that my son is now full of fun little sayings that he picks up, hears, makes up, etc. He's had a few more choice ones since the last blog and I really look forward, every day now, to hearing what my 2 1/2 year old might come up with.

The first is not so much a quote as an entire conversation we had:
Mommy - "Did you know you have a baby sister in my belly?
William - "Take her out, I want to see her!"
Mommy - "We can't take her out, she has to get bigger first"
William - "Why?" (he asks this A LOT now)
Mommy - "Because she's not ready until she's bigger"
William - "Why?"
Mommy - "Because if we take her out now, she'll get sick"
William - "What she doing in there? Sleeping?"
Mommy - "Yeah, she sleeps, she moves around, she's learning how to be a baby and how to get bigger"
William - "Does she have a book in there?"
Mommy - (laughing) "uh no, there's no room for a book in there, but she can hear us, so she hears all the stories I read to you. She can hear us talking and singing and everything. If you talk to her, she'll hear you."
William - (leaning close to my belly) "hi baby."

The following are the best quotes since my last post:

"I want my Batsuit" - said every day while we visted my folks for Thanksgiving in Southern California. He wore it at least once EVERY DAY.

"Two hands mommy!" - scolding me to use two hands to hold my glass of chocolate milk as I had just instructed him to do the same about 2 minutes earlier.

"Oh man, basketball all day!? I'm not taking a nap!" - said at my parents house upon hearing a television ad about basketball all day.

"Thank you for coming!" - said to my twin's father-in-law as we were all saying goodbye at Thanksgiving.

"Wanna watch this movie, mommy... it's really cool!" - said about any movie he's trying to talk me into letting him watch.

"I have boogers!" - said at full volume... in Target. Yay.

"I BatWill!" - William correcting me when I called him William one morning and he was already wearing his Batsuit.

"I not BatWill, I'm Batman!" - said just 5 minutes later when I called him BatWill as previously instructed.

"I Santa Will" - said as he put a Santa hat on his head while we were decorating for Christmas.

"I stinky?" - asked any time I tell him it's time to change his diaper.

"I not babe, I WILLIAM!" - said one night at the dinner table as I said "here's your dinner babe" while setting down his plate.

"you all done?" - asked of everyone sitting at the table during a meal because we have instructed him that he is to sit at the table until everyone is done eating so we can learn to "eat as a family".

"HELLLLOOOOOO.... OPEN THE DOOR!" - we hear this shout via the baby monitor often when he wakes in the morning on weekends or from a nap.

"Noooo... I not really tired" - said anytime bed or naptime is mentioned.

"Noooo... I not really hungry" - said before or even while eating a meal because he'd rather be playing.

"No, no thank you. I don't want a time-out" - said recently in response to my telling him to take a time-out for hitting me.

It just gets better and better folks. I can't believe what an insane adventure parenthood is turning out to be. I want to walk around with a video or audio recorder at all times because there are too many looks and sayings that you just want back the moment they are gone.

Happy Holidays!
