While looking at toys online for Christmas:
Joi: Look at these, Theron. Do you like them?
Theron: Ho-we, Mo-we [holy moly :-)]! Those are pretty cool.
When David dropped something:
David: Uh oh, spaghetti O!

When Theron gets in trouble:
Theron: I telling on you! I telling my mom you're not being nice!
Talking about Townes:
Joi: Aw, you love your brother!
Theron: I do, Mommy. He's my best swiend. He's my savorite boy [still can't say our 'f' sound but it's the cutest.] Townsie likes to eat, sleep, and poop, Mommy!
Talking about Townes eating:
Theron: Townsie gon' eat on the other side, Mommy? He eats off your belly like I did when I was wittle. [haha! sure, buddy...my belly!]
xo
When asking to watch a certain commercial:
Theron: Can I watch Medicare, Daddy?
Dave: Sure! What's Medicare for?
Theron: It's for when you go to the doctor!
When talking about Townes:
Theron: He's a monster!
Joi: No he's not. That's not nice.
Theron: Yeah he is, Mommy! He's a bad guy!
When Theron gets in trouble:
Theron: I telling on you!
-or-
Theron: Don't yook at me, Daddy/Mommy!
Talking about Townes:
Joi: Well, sometimes babies cry. You cried a lot when you were little!
Theron: No I didn't, Mommy! I was happy! (Haha, think again, kiddo!)
While watching Price Is Right:
Bob Barker: I'm going to sell you an automobile!
Theron: It's an SUV, Bob!
After throwing up [I know, TMI for most of you, but I want to remember--haha!]:
Joi: You ok, buddy?

When watching a commercial for princess toys:

More of my main little dude's convos...
When talking about a booboo that hurt him while taking a bath:
Theron: Sometimes little boys get hurt.
Joi: Yes, you're right.
Theron: Etan gets hurt, too! [Etan is actually Ethan, one of my best friend's boys who Theron constantly talks about!]
When talking about his hot pizza:
Theron: Mommy, this isn't hot?
Joi: Well, it's a little hot.

After Theron sneezed:
Theron: Bless you, Daddy.
Theron: Thanks, Daddy.
Theron: You're welcome, Daddy.
When any visitor leaves to go home:
Theron: Bye-bye, [insert name].
Theron: Make sure to tall me when you get home!
Randomly chatting in the morning:
Theron: I like trucks!
Theron: Daddy, you like airplanes!
Theron: Daddy, Papa likes food! [David's dad is known to be a foodie and food forcer--even if you're not hungry! Looks like Theron picked up on that!]
When Theron doesn't get his way:
Theron: You're not coming to my birthday party anymore!
-or-
Theron: I'm telling on you! [wonder where he heard that? Haha! The joys of preschool!]

Kinda like TED Talks, haha, even though I don't even know what those are.
A couple years ago I bought this mother's journal and wrote in it occasionally about stuff but then stopped. So typical of me. I want to get back to writing sweet/sentimental/simple/crazy/tiring moments in there on a daily basis but I don't have much hope for myself! It should be easy because it's only intended as a "one line a day" quick recap but I'm still failing.
Anyhoo...David and I have been talking about how much Theron has been talking lately and we don't want to forget any of it. For so long we hoped and prayed to hear his little voice and now he doesn't stop. He also uses so many hand motions and facial expressions that add a definite amount of sass to his convos!
THERON talks:
While at Grandma and Papa's house outside...and pointing at me frantically:
Theron [going inside]: I just be wight back, mommy. You stay here.
While talking about friends:
Theron: We buddies.
Joi: Who?
Theron: Me and Daddy!
Joi: Can I be your buddy?
Theron: No, mommy!
Joi: How come?
Theron: Betause you a girl, mommy. Nobody's your buddy.
While talking about potty problems:
Joi: Theron, why did you potty in your pants at school?
Theron: Betause I tired, mommy.
Again...about potty problems:
Joi: Theron, why did you potty in your pants at school?
Theron: Betause I do, mommy!
When we're going anywhere for the day...
Joi/David: We're going to ________.
Theron: Do they have toys over dere?
Joi/David: Probably.
Theron: Do they have gummies over dere?
Joi/David: Maybe.
Theron: Do they have chippies over dere?
Joi/David: Maybe!
Theron: Do they have loader over dere?
Joi/David: I think so!
When telling Theron not to do something:
David/Joi: Theron, don't hit/throw/whine etc. ...
Theron: Don't tell me to..., mommy/daddy!
When talking about food:
David: Did you drink milk at school today?
Theron: No, Daddy!
David: Did you drink juice, buddy?
Theron: No, Daddy! Juice yucky. I yike water. Water's good [sounding like he's German with the "goot" pronunciation]. Water is yummy in my tummy!
And not necessarily conversations but it's so dang cute when he starts + finishes all of his sentences/requests with mommy&/daddy. For example:
Theron: Mommy, I wanna go swimming, mommy!
Theron: Daddy, I wanna ride my twactor, daddy!
Theron: Mommy, more water, pease, mommy!
When talking about his favorite show, Price is Right:
Theron: Mommy, I watch Drew, mommy!
Joi: Ok! Have you been a good listener?
Theron: Yes, Mommy! I watch house game [a random commercial] & puppy gog [another random commercial], too!
When asking what we do on certain days [we obviously are pretty consistent!]:
Joi: It's Friday, Theron! What's that mean?
Theron: Pizza day!
Joi: Yes! You're right! What do we do tomorrow then?
Theron: We go choo-choo store [It's a actually a toy store in a nearby town]! Den, Seak-n-shake! I eat chicken, sries [can't say his "f"s] and water!
Joi: Ok! We'll go if you're good! What about Sunday?
Theron: Hawdee's day! [David and I have went to Hardee's almost every Sunday for nearly 15 years! haha!]
Joi: Yup! You're right!
I'm sure there are more but that's all I can think of right now. I'm glad I wrote these down because I don't want to forget anything at all! It's like I can hear his little voice saying all of this again!
