Before I forget, here are a few of Scott lines as of late...
Scott: Mom, are you old?
Me: WHAT?! (Feeling a little sensitive about my upcoming 30th birthday!)
Scott: Are you old?
Me: Why do you ask that?
Scott: What are those? (As he pointed to my leg.)
Me: That's called a spider vein. (Thank you, Pregnancy #2.)
Scott: Oh! (GREAT) Grandma Joyce has spider veins on her legs, too.
I don't cook as much as I would like to. One of these days, I'm going to turn into Julia Child, Martha Stewart, Gretchen J. ...someone like that! :) Anyway...as I was pulling the instant mashed potatoes out of the microwave the other night, Scott exclaimed, "Oooh, Mom! You're making a feast!" I guess if you're used to peanut butter sandwiches, a three food meal (chicken, peas, and mashed potatoes!) is considered quite a feast in the mind of a three year old. :)
Scott: Mom, I think we should take a break from hugging. (Said in the middle of a hug.)
Scott ran up to me while I was vacuuming last week to get my attention. I turned the vacuum off and he said, "Mom, I like you. Do you like me?"
Jon and I recently celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary. We were explaining to Scott what the word "anniversary" meant. Scott replied, "I wish I could marry Natalie." We'll have to remind him of this comment when he's older.
Scott was asking me a question the other day while I was in the midst of a project. I was ignoring him for a moment and Scott snapped, "MOM! Be friendly! Talk to people whenever they say something to you!" (Scott been reminded of this several times, so he tried to apply it to this situation, as well.)
Scott: OWW!! I...I...I...(searching hard for the right words)..ate my teeth!
Me: You mean you bit your tongue?
Scott: Yeah.
Scott was helping me mix something on the rug (the spot where we often bake together). He got a little wild with his stirring and spilled some on the rug. In response to his spill he said, "Oops! This is a messy job. We better wear our aprons."
We were pulling out of the driveway on our way to Meijer. Scott exclaimed, "Oh, Mom! I forgot to tell you to bring your grocery list!" I reassured him that I already had it. He often "reminds" me to do things.
The other day I heard much squealing and giggling coming from the other room. I then heard Scott yell, "Mom! Get your camera!" (He didn't have to tell me twice!)
How we love our little stinker!
Isn't it amazing how fast they talk. Scott sounds like he's getting quite a sense of humor too. I love the "I ate my tongue." Poor guy!
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at the spider vein comment...one of mine asked me recently what happened to my legs.
ReplyDeleteLOVED the Scott-isms! It's so funny to hear what these little guys pick up on and repeat back to you! :) Reminds me of something Teri told me the other day...they've been teaching her to hula-hoop and somewhere along the line they must've been telling her to swing her hips...she went up to Teri and said, 'Mom, I hurt my swing." It took Teri a minute to figure out that she was talking about her hips! We must've skipped "hips" when we were teaching her "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes!"
ReplyDeleteOops...meant to say that they've been teaching LILY to hula-hoop...I'm sure you figured that out... :)
