This week's recall

As we drove to the school for the Brown/Coakley election...
Mommy I want to see the boat!
Well Owen, here's the place where we vote.
[We depart building after voting]
[Tantruming]  Mommy, go back, I want to go back and see that boat with that man in Massachusetts in that boat!!!

After playing with the hand lotion bottle...
Mommy!  My pants are all lotionedy.  [pause]  Yes indeed!

While making waffles for breakfast...
[I pour buttermilk into measuring cup]
[Tantruming] Nooooo!  I want to pour dat buttery milk!  Nooooo!  Dat's Owen's job!  Give me dat buttery milk!

Anytime, any day...
Mommy, I want Asher to go and be in dat different family
Mommy, can Asher go live in dat other house?
Mommy, Asher can go to dat garage.
Mommy, Daddy will take Asher to Daddy's work.
Mommy, I don't like Asher.

While repeatedly (and I mean repeatedly...perhaps obsessively-compulsively, I'm not sure) taking his new skiing goggles and helmet on and off, on and off, on and off...
Mommy, why do I have to wear dis helmet?
Well, you might fall down and I don't want you to hit your head and get hurt.
NOOOO Mommy, don't say dat!
Mommy, why do I have to wear dis helmet?
[silence from me]
Mommy, why do I have to wear dis helmet?
I don't want to have to take you to the hospital in the middle of our ski trip
NOOOO Mommy, stop talking like dat!
Mommy, why do I have to wear dis helmet?
[silence again]
Mommy, why do I have to wear dis helmet?
OWEN, YOU JUST TOLD ME NOT TO ANSWER YOU!  WHAT ON EARTH DO YOU WANT ME TO SAY????
Mommy, say, 'Owen, that helmet is to pwetect your head if you fall down!'
...At this moment it dawns on me that he is reciting lines from the Caillou episode in which Caillou learns to ski on a ski trip with his family.  I just didn't know my part.

After getting an unusual snack of apple jacks and chocolate milk (not mixed together by the way)...
Mommy, THANK you mommy.  I LOVE dis snack.  Dis snack is GWEAT!  Oh mommy, wow I love dis snack SOOO much.  Wow!  It tastes so YUMMY!  Thank you Mommy for dis tasty, tasty snack!
