"Kids Say the Darndest Things"

I just had to post something really quick that Trevor said when we were riding in the car yesterday.

A little back story first: Trevor has such a hard time with dawdling-he is such a slow poke of a guy-that I am always telling him to "hurry up and get in the car" when we are out because he is at the stage where he wants to "ME DO IT!"-about the only thing he lets me do is buckle him in.

So, we had been at work, Sam's Club and then the bank. We were driving home and he was in the back seat talking about who knows what-he loves to make things up-and apparently he thinks I have gotten pretty bossy because I heard him say: "Mommy say get in car NOW!"

I started laughing so hard because it is so true! I just couldn't believe he had the audacity to talk about me like that when I was in the car with him. :)

He has been saying some pretty funny things lately, but I really have to watch what I say. About 2 weeks ago some guy flew past us on the highway and I said out loud, "Where's the fire, ass?" To which Trevor said "Fire ass" then laughed really loud and repeated it about 4 times including "Mommy say it" just to remind me that I said it first.

He is getting so much better at talking-he says at least a few new things everyday. And he can count to 5 (with the occasional skipping of 4). We have only been working on it for a while so I am very happy.

Good morning, my name is Dave Burpee. I have been researching our name for about 30 years. I have a program that catches new internet items with the name Burpee in it. I have gotten hits on your blog for several years; however, I don't think that I have ever attempted to contact you. Would you be willing to give me your husband and his dad's name ??? I would like to see if I have either of them in my data base..thanks so much...Dave Burpee, Fishkill, New York
