Tales from Toddlerhood, Part 3

We went shopping last weekend to find Daddy a few things for his work wardrobe.  I was little nervous at the prospect of dealing with an infant and a toddler both in a crowded clothing store, but it went great… Joshua slept in the sling the whole time and Benjamin thought of no shortage of cute things to say.

"Ooh!  I yike dose!"
"We gettin cose fer Daddy yerk"

and our favorite, pointing to each appropriate rack, in a musing little voice, "We have … shirts!  We have … pants!   We have … sweaters!"

And after hearing Mommy and Daddy quote prices to each other over the racks, he start quoting prices, too.  "Dis eighty dodders" (shockingly, the thing he was pointing to at that moment was the ugliest shirt you've ever seen, priced at … drum roll please … $79.99!  What are the odds?  or is my child just that brilliant?  :)

Unfortunately, the dollars discussion seems to have confused his weather predicting skills, because now anytime we mention the weather he says, "It forty degees-dodders outside!"
