Being a big brother is hard
Daddy: Sam, I have some questions for you. How do you like having your little brother, Josh?
Sam: It’s good.
Daddy: Has it been easy or has it been hard?
Sam: Hard.
Daddy: What do you like about having a little brother?
Sam: I can play with him!
Daddy: What do you not like?
Sam: Mommy breastfeeding Josh.
Mimi’s all gone
Sam has been playing all week that Mimi is misbehaving. Her punishment is getting put in the bathroom. This time it may have gone too far.
Sam: I put Mimi in the bathroom. And I bit her.
Mommy: You bit her?
Sam: Yeah, I bit her. I yummed her all up. She’s in my belly. She’s all gone. I ate her for breakfast!
Dead silence
Sam: I can’t make too much words, Mommy.
Mommy: You can’t make too many words?
Sam: No. I can’t make too much words because I’m dead.
Mommy: You’re dead?
Sam: I’m a dead honey bee. I can play with cars and trains and toys. But I can’t make too much words. Because I’m dead.
Sweet big brother
Daddy is lying in Sam’s room holding Josh a couple hours after he was born. Sam gets out of bed and comes over carrying his blanket.
Sam: Daddy, I’m just giving Josh my blanket because he might be cold.
Getting ready for bed
Sam (2.5): Is there anything you need?
Mom: I need my water.
Sam: I’ll check to see if it needs filling. Oh it does. (Goes to fill water) Here you go cutie pie.
Side note, this was the night before Josh was born.
Rude monkeys
Sam’s first afternoon with the new quiet time rule. He’s sucking on his monkey binkies sitting in a box on the bed.
Sam (2.5): (crying) The monkey poked me in the eye! And he didn’t say sorry!
Doctor Sam’s Phone Call
Doctor Sam took a phone call while treating Daddy’s sore neck.
Hello? Are you there?…Sorry, bye. I’m working…I hurt—Daddy hurt is neck…Sorry, bye.
Sam (2.5)
It’s pretty cool
While walking back from the dog run
Sam (2.5): My room is messy.
Dad: Oh. Should we clean it up when we get home?
Sam: No.
Dad: No?
Sam: No, it’s pretty cool.
Dad: Oh, pretty cool, huh? Is that what the kids are doing these days?
Sam: Yeah, that’s what the kids are doing. It’s pretty cool.
