So says baby boy

It's time for a baby boy update.

Most days this kid says the darnedest things. His mind is still making sense of the world and how things work around here. His vocabulary increases daily and oh boy am I glad. I'm one of those parents who cannot baby talk. Words are words. There's no unnecessary babbling coming out of my mouth and I think it's because of this that the sweet baby boy is able to clearly express himself. So here are a few gems gathered from the a few weeks prior to his 2nd birthday:

1) Whoooh! Here you go mommy. So heavy! The vacuum. (after I had asked him to bring me the vacuum cleaner)
2) Mommy no! Mine Potty! Out mommy! (he no longer wants me in the bathroom while he does his business)
3) Oh Oh! Potty dropped mommy. (this was said early in the morning while I was busy hand washing some stains off his clothes, turns out he'd pooped on the floor in his room and was kind enough to come get me, he looked traumatized, it was early days in the potty training stage and the whole bowel movement thing took him by surprise)
4) Waters! Come back here! (I asked him to go look for his water bottle in his room)
5) Nice kick daddy (while playing soccer with his dad, he often says encouraging words when playing with others, he's also quick to clap and congratulate)
6) Mommy making the bread, I want to punch too mommy (as I knead the dough)
7) Dinner daddy, come quickly, dinner is cooking daddy (said with great urgency and excitement whenever I ask him to let his dad know that dinner is ready)
8) Thunder is barking mommy (that's his interpretation of what thunder sounds like)
9) Mommy's big gal. I'm big boy. (whenever I ask him to be a big boy and help with a chore)
10) Bye bye potty, see you later potty, I love you potty. (then turns to me) Potty's so sweet mommy. (he sure loves that toilet bowl)

And those are some of the things I here on a daily basis.
