Reichen: “Mommy?”
Me: “Yes, baby?”
Reichen: “When is Daddy coming home?”
Me: “I don’t know. After work, like usual, I guess. Why?”
Reichen: “Because you are going to be in so much trouble when I tell Daddy you made me sit in time out.”
What my 3 year old said after a stint in time out for biting his brother.
Reichen: “Mommy! Mommy!”
Me: “Yes, baby?”
Reichen: “Can you bring me a magazine? I need to look at it while I’m in here pooping.”
Reichen: “That lady sings lousy.”
What my 3 year old said about the woman singing next to him at church.
It’s 8:30pm, I’ve brushed his teeth, read him books, and Reichen is in my lap snuggling one more minute before bed and I whisper…
Me: “Reichen, you and Latham are the most amazing little boys in the whole world. I love you so much.”
{pause}
{pause}
Me: “What do you say when mommy says she loves you?”
Reichen: “I. Want. To. Go. To. The. Mall.”
Reichen: “Oh. Let’s not talk about that.”
What my 3 year old said after I asked him to tell his dad why he had to sit in time out today.
Reichen: “Mommy, look at that lady! She has HUGE boobies!”
What my 3 year old said after seeing Kim Kardashian on the cover of this month’s Shape Magazine.
By the way, I’m not really sure where Reichen picked up that particular word. It’s certainly not how I refer to that specific part of the female anatomy. But if I had to guess, I bet the guy he heard it from lives in our house and his name starts with a D, ends with a D and has an A-V-I in the middle.
Reichen: “Mommy, I need to get a lot bigger before I get huge.”
Me: “You’re right, buddy. You need to get a lot bigger before you get huge.”
Reichen: “Oh, because I really want to be huge; So, I’m going to work on being really big.”
Me: “Okay, buddy. Sounds good to me.”
Reichen: “Mommy! Mommy! That lady is squeezing my brother! HEY LADY!!! STOP SQUEEZING MY BROTHER!!!”
What my 3 year old screamed at the nurse while she gave Latham his 2 year old immunizations today.
Reichen: “Mommy?”
Me: “Yes, baby?”
Reichen: “Never flush me down the stool.”
Me: “Okay. I’ll never flush you down the stool.”
Reichen: “I would be really scared if you flushed me down the stool.”
Me: “Don’t worry, I’ll never flush you down the stool.”
Reichen: “Promise?”
Me: “Promise.”
Reichen: “Latham, you are an amazing genius. I’m so proud of you.”
What Reichen told Latham after watching him walk down the stairs for the very first time all by his 2 year old self. I melted a little bit inside when I heard it. Okay, I melted a lot of bit.
Latham: “What are those, RyRy?”
Reichen: “Those are your balls.”
Latham: “Where are Daddy’s balls?”
Reichen: “They’re not here. They’re at work with Daddy.”
The comical conversation between my two boys this afternoon while I changed Latham’s diaper.
Reichen: “Where did the bubbles go, Dadda?”
The question my 3 year old asked after his father, my husband, told him it was alright to urinate outside for the first time this afternoon. David explained bubbles are only a perk when you pee in the potty. The perk when you pee outside: writing your name anywhere you want.
Of course, I was not there for that conversation. I only learned about it after Reichen excitedly volunteered all the gory details at dinner.
Sigh.
Reichen: “Can you go to work, Dadda?”
David: “Why do you want me to go to work, buddy?”
Reichen: “Because I need some money to give the lady at the mall so I can ride the carousel.”
The sweet conversation I overheard between Reichen and his Daddy.
Reichen: “The girl in blue hurt me today.”
Me: “She did?”
Reichen: “Yeah.”
Me: “What happened?”
Reichen: “She hit me in the head with a car and then I yelled NAUGHTY GIRL!!! NAUGHTY GIRL!!! And then…”
{pause} {pause} {pause}
Reichen: “I spit in her face.”
What my 3 year old said happened after I dropped him off for an hour at the gym daycare this morning. After I died a little on the inside, we had a very long conversation about how you never spit at anyone. Ever.
Reichen: “What is that, Momma? Is that a little bit of poop?”
What my 3 year old toddler said to me after I spilled taco meat all over myself.
