Conversations with Dashiell

Little kids say the awesomest things. Here are some of the conversations we’ve had with Dashiell lately…

Dash: I need to go to work.
Me: Where do you work?
Dash: On a bus!
Me: Who rides on your bus?
Dash: Just me.
Me: What color is your bus?
Dash: It’s green!

Chris (pointing to a starfish in a book): What’s this? 
Dash: A fish star!…I want to eat it.

While running down an aisle at Target:
Dash: I TOOTED!

When anyone asks what time is is:
Dash: It’s forty-five.

Me: Is it snowing outside?
Dash: Yes!
Me: Do you know what snowing is?
Dash: It’s sprinkles!

Me: Dash, can you tell me a joke?
Dash: I’m joking!

As I’m laying in bed with Dashiell at bedtime:
Me: Dash, can you tell me a story?
Dash: I too busy, mama.

While running out of the bathroom after having successfully used the toilet:
Dash: I’mmmmmm toilet training!

While Chris and I were talking about jewelry that I wear:
Chris: Dash, what kind of jewelry do you think mama should wear?
Dash: A bra.

Calling me out after we made biscuits together as I’m spreading a biscuit with butter:
Dash: That’s a lot of butter. You loooove butter.

    Haha, there are some real gems here! Reminds me that I should jot down some of the things my son is saying right now too! It is amazing the things they pick up (and understand!) at this age…

      Yes, definitely write things down (or keep notes in your phone). I feel like even though I try to capture a lot I forget so many awesome things he says now that he can say so many things!

    OMG laughing so hard, especially his bra jewelry comment. I like when I ask him a question, usually about something in one of his books, and he replies “…mmmm…not sure.”. Keep these coming!

      I remember reading these posts on Young House Love and loving them and imagining having a child old enough to say funny stuff. I can’t believe it’s here already, it is so fun. Haha, they call it like they see it!
