July-August Calebisms

OK OK.... I will be updating soon. I have lots of things to post from summer, but just haven't had time to upload pictures. That will be happening this week. I promise! Until then, enjoy some more anecdotes from my precious 4 year old.

While singing along to one of Caleb's CD's in the car....
Caleb: Your singing is really loud. I can hear it.
Mommy: OK
Caleb: It kinda bugs me.

Caleb was trying to fall backwards, but his reflexes kicked in and his feet would move backward to compensate for the fall. He got really mad and started fussing at his feet.
Caleb: Ugh! Feet, I'm trying to fall backwards!

Caleb: Augusta (invisible friend) and I just got married.
Mommy: You did? I thought you were gonna marry Ilona.
Caleb: I am. When Augusta moves out, then I'll marry Ilona.
Mommy: Honey, that's not how marriage works.
Caleb: But that's what makes marriage fun, Mommy.

Before entering McDonald's for lunch with Gram-Gram...
Mommy: Be sure to play nice with the other kids in the play place.
Caleb: I will. I won't punch them or anything.

Caleb: (Hugging me) I forgot to give you your morning hug! (Kissing me on the cheek) And your morning kiss! (Rubbing noses with me) And your morning noses! (Messing up my hair) And your morning hair mess! (giggles)

After telling Caleb that Danielle was going to have another baby and that Brady would be a big brother:
Caleb: I want to be a big brother.
Mommy: Well, if Mommy and Daddy have a baby someday, you WILL be a big brother.
Caleb: I want a baby sister.
Mommy: Or a baby brother.
Caleb: No, AND a baby brother. I want a baby brother AND a baby sister.
Mommy: Well, I don't think that's going to happen.
Caleb: You could have twins!

Caleb had been in bed for a little while, then came into our room crying. He said he missed me and just wanted more hugs. I was happy to oblige. Then I took him back to his room and tried to tuck him back in. He started crying again and said he didn't want me to leave. I asked what was wrong and he said, "Sometimes when I first go to bed, I just miss all of the people I don't see." :(
