big sis helping out

This is what Brodie told me while his 8yr old sister latched the straps on his carseat this morning:
"She can do this because she's not a kid anymore."

tomorrow

As he was getting into bed:
"Do we have a big day tomorrow?"

bare hands

"You are a good killer. You are a good sister because you kill bugs with your bare hand. Do you have two bare hands?"

daddy's potty humor

Brodie and I were in the bathroom. His dad calls from the other room, "Don't fall in". Brodie looks up at me with eyes rolled and says:
"He's craaazzzzyyyy."

wishing well

We raced pennies at the mall, like we've done before. This time we pointed out the sign that said it was a wishing well coin race. My friend told the kids to make a wish as they let their penny drop. Brodie threw his arms around my leg, looked up at me and said:
"I wish I will love you forever."

dessert

After discussing what he would have for dessert, he said with a grin:
"Cotton candy ice cream! I'm exploding!"

always

We are sitting on the couch side by side reading a book. He takes my chin and turns my head to be nose to nose with him and whispers sweetly:
"You'll always be mine."

time to pray

Brodie grabbed a cucumber slice right as I placed the dinner plate down in front of him. I asked him to put it down so we could pray to thank God for our food. His response:
"But it has Ranch on it!"

everyday

While getting ready for bed - Brodie hugs me and says softly:
"I should love you everyday. Awwwww, that's sweet."

where are you going?

"Where are you going?"
Shopping.
"You look like you are dressed up to go to LegoLand."

good morning

While shopping, we were greeted with a warm "Good morning" from an employee. I said good morning in response and Brodie chimed in with:
"HELLOOO LADYYYYY!"
She smiled and chuckled.

candy

After going potty:
"Can I have an M&M?"
Yes.
"That's candy you know."

growing

"Am I growing?"
Yes.
"Good. I like to grow. I want to get big."
Why?
"To drive a car!"

what time is it?

While eating lunch at Mickey D's, wearing the watch he just got out of the Happy Meal and sitting in the play area. He points to the new watch and says:
"This says its time to play."

show me

I asked Brodie to put together a puzzle and put it away. He replied:
"I can't. You show me. You show me with love."

huh?

After not really understanding what someone was trying to say to him:
"You're just speaking Spanish!"

in the way

While shopping, Brodie told these ladies to get out of the way. Ugh. I actually don't think they heard him. I told him to ask people nicely to move by saying pardon me. So he then said to them loudly:

"Pardon me, baby."

a toddler inventor

While in his carseat after dropping a toy onto the floor of the car:
"I wish I had magnet shoes so I could pick that up."

apple slices

"Can I have an apple?"
"Yep."
"You're the best Mommy in town!"

ice cream

I told Brodie I would do what he wanted after I was done with my ice cream. He said I could just do what he wanted now because:

"It will turn into soup. You can eat it like soup. Its good like soup."

kisses

My husband gave Brodie and then me a kiss good-bye. After he was gone, Brodie came over and said:
"Let me give you Daddy's kiss."

I asked if he meant the kiss Daddy just gave him and he said yes, smiled big, and gave me the kiss.

potty training

While on our way to meet a family friend:
"Can I show her the car I pooped for?"

some fresh air

While playing with a tube from his TinkerToy set, he asks me:
"Would you like some fresh air in your ear?"

clean hands

After playing outside Brodie went straight to the bathroom to wash his hands by himself. I was proud of him. He came out of the bathroom with his shirt splashed with water. I said, "Oh my goodness." He replied:

"Yeah. Baaaad luuuuuck."

Eat Your Dinner

While eating my dinner at the table next to Brodie, he leans over to look in my bowl. He sees I'm just about done and says:
"You get dessert."

Band-Aid

After stubbing his pinkie toe...
"I really need a Band-Aid. Trust me."
