Holy Cow!

What happened with my baby?
These quips only TODAY

1. Alec showered in our bathroom and used Sean's liquid soap. He immediately making faces and said: "Mom! The soap stinks!" I tried not to laugh and said: "It's your Daddy's soap. It's a man soap". Still with his funny looking face, Alec said: "So, Daddies soap's stink?"

2. The phone in Alec's bedroom was ringing...
Me: "Your phone is ringing, somebody is looking for you". Alec ran and answered the phone: "Hello? Hellllooooo?" Nobody answered. Alec looked perplexed and put the phone down and said: "Hmm! You cannot talk to me now!"

3. I have been playing with Alec all day today and he started to wearing me off. He kept talking and talking (randomly) about everything he saw, he felt or remembered a while back...who knows. I feel like I'm hooked with endless fire crackers, today. Patience sweet readers, I will tell you what he said, not all of them though. You will not believe me if I wrote everything down here, anyways. So, here ya go...

Alec: "Mom, my teacher said that I'm obedient and I can control my self"

or:
Alec: "I need my shoes, Mom".
Me: "You can get it by your self, can't you"
Alec: "I know, I know. You've been playing with me all day yesterday. And then I slept in your bedroom this morning, and you got me breakfast, and you need to take care of Sammy. I know" and then walked away to get his shoes...

or:
"Those people just cracked me up"

or:
"Learn to drive, buddy".

or:
(This afternoon in the mall...) Alec: "Mom, I'm 4 now. Are you going to buy me a skateboard now?" and staring at skateboards on display.
Me: "I know I have promised, but that skateboard it way too big for you. I think it's even too big for Daddy"
Alec: "Well, that's ok. I still can use it now and when I grow up, I don't have to buy a bigger one, because I already have one".

or:
Alec just realized that he has a tiny mole on his leg. He was so surprised and said: "Look, Mom, I'm like you!" I said: "Hey, you have a mole. Cool" He suddenly pinching the mole and said: "I don't like it Mom. I want it to go away"
Me: "It's under your skin, sweetie. It's just like tattoo" Alec protested and said: "Tattoo has cool picture. This is a DOT"

or:
Alec loves being told that he is growing so fast. For the last 4 weeks he has been wanted us to measure how high he is. EVERY D A Y. He was laying down on my bed with his both feet up.
Alec: "Can we measure our legs?" I laid back next to him and pointed my both legs towards him so it seems like his legs almost the same length with mine.
Alec: "Don't bend your legs, Mom. Keep it straight"
Me: "I can't. It's hurting my legs"
Alec: "Are you old? Are you going to die, Mom?"

or:
I went to the bathroom and Alec kept talking and following me there.
Me: "Can I have some privacy, please?"
Alec: "Are you going to be there for a long time?" I grabbed my computer and said: "I think so. Yes"
Alec: "I just going to talk here, then. I want a guitar, Mom. With the big string, so I can hold it on my shoulder"
Me: "You know Alec, you have been saying "I want" a lot lately. You even haven't said thank you for the skateboard I bought you. You even can't share it with Sam. It's not good, sweetie, it's called greedy. Lot's of people doesn't even have food to eat".
Alec: "Sorry Mom. I NEED a guitar, please".
