Say What?!

Time for another edition of 'Say What?!': the funny things that Finley says and does.

- While heading to go see Uncle Donovan today Finley declared, "Uncle Donovan, he's so silly. But we still love him". 

- Finley has recently discovered the beauty of showers. After he is done with his bath, he requests to turn on the shower and dances around in the 'rain'. 

- Lately Finley has decided upon a new career. When he grows up he wants to be an Astronaut Dentist. He is willing to clean astronaut's teeth or alien's. 

- One morning David walked into the play room and noticed that Finley's train set was all messed up. When David asked him what happened Finley said that "there was a storm last night and the tracks were washed out"  (a direct quote from his book Puff and Toot). 

- Finley has been the manners police lately. Every time he tells you thank you for something, if you don't respond with 'you're welcome' he reminds you "You are suppose to say you are welcome!".

- Finley was finishing up his lunch down stairs while I was folding laundry today when it got really quiet. I came down to check on him to discover that he had been 'feeding' our recently acquired rubber chicken, noodle soup. The chicken has an open mouth, so the noodle soup had made it's way all the way to down inside to the chicken toes. Not fun to clean up, but at least it wasn't chicken noodle soup right?

- While unpacking our bags today Finley found David's belt, handed it to him, and told him "Here's your seat belt".

- Every time I ask Finley what he wants for breakfast or lunch these days he always lists a few normal items and concludes with 'and a box of cookies'. Then he proceeds to laugh his head off.

- Finley and I enjoyed a $1 movie together today and unfortunately they had some technical difficulties. We were waiting for the staff to get the movie going and Finley was so patient and kept saying 'What's the problem here?' and 'Is the movie still loading?'.

-Finley injured himself doing something I told him not to this morning. When he got hurt I told him "Too bad, soo sad", and his angry reply was "NO! You are sad!".

- Today we started talking about going to the 4th of July parade. Finley's first question was 'Will there be a fire truck?' and his second question was 'Will there be cheerleaders there?'. Not sure how he even knows what cheerleaders are! AHHHH!

- David was out of town for work so Finley and I went for a run together and I had to push the jogging stroller. I was telling Finley how hard it was to run and push him at the same time and he responded with 'Push with all your might!'.
