baby talk

the baby is growing up faster than i thought he would. he can talk in straight sentences already. i'm amazed to have a smart son and i know i didn't exactly do much (just my genes of course!)

every saturday, we are obliged or shall i say, required to go to my uncle's house for brunch. ever since we've had kids (my sis and i) we go to his house on saturdays without fail. yesterday was no exception. i didn't want the baby to eat his morning snack because then he won't have much of an appetite for brunch. but around 9 am or so, the ice cream man stopped at the house. the baby wanted to me to buy him a cone but i said no. i told the baby we had ice cream in the freezer, but he didn't want it. so he cried a bit but forgot about ice cream soon enough. after about 20 minutes, the other ice cream man was approaching. apparently, the baby heard him too and this is what he said:

Baby: Mommy, wisten (no L!) it's the ice cream man, he's coming back!
Me: Yes, he is.
Baby: Buy ice cream, Mommy.

naturally, i did. it's not as if i had a choice! = )

the baby's birthday is coming up. the baby and my uncle were playing the bedroom (because it's really cold there!) when my unlce asked:

Uncle: Gwapo, did Mommy buy you a birthday present already?
Baby: Yes!
Uncle: What did she get you?
Baby: Toys!

oops! now that's a natural liar! i laughed when i heard it because i haven't gotten him anything yet. i don't even know if he understands the word present but he gave the right answer though!
