When we don't give him what he wants he crosses his arms and says, "I mad you!"
The other day he was repeatedly asking for something (a 'kak") and I couldn't understand what it was. A sock? A cracker? No, not any of those. All of the sudden he clarified, "mommy, a kak, I eat it" As in, duh mom, I want a snack.
Unfortunately he now likes to give us an earful of gibberish, followed by, "you hear me?" Of course, using the same tone of voice I use when barking out orders.
Ethan's new favorite way to drive me crazy is to grab something he's not supposed to have and either throw it or run away with it. I was trying to get something back from him, repeatedly and angrily saying, "Ethan, give it here. NOW." He looked at me very sweetly and said, "Say peeeze mommy!"
Ethan likes socks. Girl's knee socks. And since we are potty training he often is walking around with a bare bottom these days. The other day I caught him wearing knee socks and nothing else but his birthday suit. He was pretending to talk on the phone, pacing around, and saying, "Yeah....uh huh....I naked....uh huh...."

| Ethan and his sock obsession |
NiNi gets an allowance of $1 a week and is starting to understand the value of money (and therefore is always scheming a way to get more) Remembering that I sometimes pull money out of daddy's pants pockets when I do the laundry, she said, "How can we get the washer and dryer to start making dollars again?"
I got Meagan some monogrammed notecards awhile back and I noticed she had not used any of them. When I asked her about it, she said, "Sorry mom, but I don't know THAT many people whose name starts with the letter 'M'"
We invited all of the girls in NiNi's class to a fall party (per the school's rule) When I told NiNi that all of the girls would be invited, she said, "Even my enemies?"
NiNi mispronounced perfume as "ker-fume" Found this bottle laying around that she had labeled:)
