I am getting mighty sick of "No!"

[Jermys]

Freddie is all about no lately.  Even when he actually wants something, he says no first.  It's not my favorite phase ever.

Except the other day when I told him he was cute, and he nodded and said "Yep!"  Little stinker.

[ginap]

C's default has always been No first and then she will say yes.

Now he's singing a song that consists of "Meenah! No!" Which translates to "Penis! No!" Boys are so freaking weird.

[snickers]

lol, I love that he said "yep" to being cute

i just entered the 'what's this?' stage 2 days ago. imma bout ready to jump off of a cliff. i didn't think it got worse than the 'no!' stage. say a prayer for me for the imminent 'why?' stage.

I can't remember who told me, but a good response to the WHY question is "why do you think?"

I'm gonna pull that one out and hopefully it will put a quick stop to the why why why why whyyyys!!!

He's so adorable. But then again I'm not the one being told no repeatedly.

That's a common conversation here. It goes like this:
Rocco: mama, why blahbittyblahblahblah?
me: why do you think blahbittyblahblahblah, Rocco?
rocco: long pause...can you tell me?

my mom still talks about MY why phase. it was epic. apparently if she said "i don't know" i'd launch into "why don't you know?"

I never realized that I say "nonono"....until my goober son started up with nonononono. He is also always good for a shouted NO MO! when he is particularly fed up with me.

Right there with you, sister.

My kid starts all of his sentences with 'but.' Please note that none of these are in response to a question. Also he scrunches up his nose when he does it, which is pretty cute.
Me: N, it's supper time. N: But why are we eating supper?
N: But where are you going? Me: I'm going to the store to buy a mop. N: But are you going to buy a blue one or a purple one?
Me: I'm glad you had fun at DCP's house today. N: But I didn't want to play with Ethan today.

I love that baby.
