Yag quotes

As I was getting ready for church one Sunday, McKay was with me in my room. He looked up and said, "Oooh..... a fancy lady!"

When Evalyn wakes from her nap and cries for me to come get her, McKay races for the stairs and says, "I need to get my Evalyn!" Then, when he gets to her crib side, he climbs up on the bottom rung and peeks over and asks "Are you sad, Evalyn?" Later, once Ev's up and happy he'll ask, "Did you have a good sleep tonight Ev?"

McKay hears some neighborhood kids screaming and playing outside. He runs to the window and exclaims "my friends are coming!"

McKay: "Jesus Christ loves you.. he loves me... all the children. Ya!"

McKay (randomly): "You remember all those people and all those animals?" No clue what he's recalling.

Auntie Mallory to Uncle Kam (her husband): "What kind of cheese do you want on your cheese steak? You want processed cheese?"
McKay, listening at the table: "I need processed cheese!!"

McKay's getting his 2 year molars and when I discovered one poppin through the gums I exclaimed "You're getting more teeth!"
McKay responds with "I'm getting more teeth.. I don't want skinny teeth."

McKay, sitting at the table eating mini marshmallows: "I'll flex my muscles."

Me, two weeks ago: "What do you want for Christmas, McKay?"
McKay: "Snacks.."
I asked the same question yesterday, McKay responded with: "Toys... and treats... I want toys and treats."
Guess I better stop asking, the list is getting longer.

Some more McKay-isms.

-McKay to me: "You remember me?"

-After a nap, I asked McKay if I could change his bum. He said, "Change my bum later.. change my bum on Saturday." That would be disastrous.

-McKay to Daddy while Daddy was showing him church history pictures in the Book of Mormon.
"Oh! My goodness! What's that?!"

-Me: "Do you want ice in your water?"
McKay: "I want apple juice... I want ice in it.. and tooties (aka cookies)."

-McKay watching me make stir-fry: "Oooh vegetables.. that's pretty awesome."

-Sitting at the breakfast table.. enjoying cinnamon toast with Daddy "It's a beautiful day, Daddy."

-Me: "McKay, should we go to BYU today?"
McKay: "Ya! BYU is perfect!"
Later that day:
Me: "Can you throw that (trash) in the garbage? It's by the toilet."
McKay: "Oh! The toilet... the toilet is perfect!"

-McKay: "Thank you for mommys, and daddys, and cockadooledoos... (no response from me)... I'm a silly boy... I'm a happy boy."

-McKay to Daddy while McKay was taking a tub: "Your hair is brutal? You need a haircut!" We do talk a lot about Daddy's brutal hair, and how he needs a haircut desperately.

-McKay looking at a picture of Brenan jumping in a river off a bridge: "Twinkle toes.. tinkerbell... jingle all the way." Quite the thought process.

-McKay will often (at least once a day for 10 min or so) head downstairs to 'go to work' with Dad. At one point while he was down there, Brenan got off his chair to grab something. McKay hopped up on Brenan's work chair at his desk, grabbed his computer mouse and said to Brenan when he walked back over to him: "I wanna work." Then, pointing to his toys on the floor he said, "You go play with toys!"

Conversations

McKay: "See mom? She (Ev) needs her smoother." (smoother aka pacifier, or as us Canadians call it, soother)

Me: "Your shirt is filthy"..(caked-on-guacamole)
McKay: "Huh... my shirt is perfect!"

McKay: "What are you making?"
Me: "Some dinner. What are you making, McKay?"
McKay: "I'm making some tomatoes!"

McKay calls Evalyn's exer-saucer the "applesaucer."

Tonight at dinner, McKay was having a melt down.
Me: "This is what happens when you don't nap during nap time. You need to sleep during nap time."
McKay: "Ya, I'm having a hard day, Mommy."
