I did one of these a year ago with the intentions of doing a similar post every couple of months. But then...life. Anyway, I'm back with another edition of Toddler Talk: Brantley Said What? I know these might seem minute, or even dumb, to some people, but this age is just so hilarious and I never want to forget the funny little things my kids say!
Brantley age 3 to 3 1/2:
B: Ewwww gross, I smell poop! It sninks! (Stinks)
B: Ewwww gross, I smell poop! It sninks! (Stinks)
Me: I like the gel in your hair.
B: It's spicy.....spikey!
Later that evening...
Me: You looked so handsome today with gel in your hair.
B: It was hikey!
Me: Brantley, please don't stand on your chair. You need to stay on your booty.
B: The police will be mad?
Me: Ummmmmm....no? Just Mommy and Daddy...
B: I want to go to our old house sometime.
Me: Why? What's wrong with our new house?
B: It's creepy!
Me: Do you even know what creepy means?
B: Yeah, liiiiiiike.....monsters.
Me: Brantley, please don't stand on your chair. You need to stay on your booty.

{While driving home from daycare one evening}
Me: Brantley, I can't get the toy you dropped while I'm driving. I have to pay attention to the traffic so I don't run into another car.
B: But the monster trucks do it.
Me: But the monster trucks are big. Mommy's car is little.
B: Daddy's car is big like the monster trucks??
{Upon noticing his bed was wet}
Me: Brantley, why is your bed wet? Did you dump the water from your sippy?
B: No, Mommy! It's sneeze!
{While driving and hearing the un-Velcro of his shoes}
Me: Brantley, please don't take your shoes off. That will make me really sad.
B: I'm just getting the tongue!
(How he knows the tongue of a shoe is beyond me!)

{Singing Frosty the Snowman}
B: Frosty the Snowman, was a jolly happy snow.
{After two separate conversations - one discussing the Rose Bowl and another discussing not living with Mommy and Daddy when he's 20}
B: When I'm 20, I want to go to the Rose Bowl with you, Mommy. And Daddy can watch us on t.v.!
Me: Brantley, you look very handsome.
B: You're not handsome, Mommy. You're beautiful!
(Heart. melted.)
Me: Brantley, you look very handsome.
B: You're not handsome, Mommy. You're beautiful!
(Heart. melted.)
{Recalling anything in the past}
B: We went there last night!
B: Mommy, are there two Iowas?
Me: Huh?
B: Because there's football Iowa and [Grandma and Papa's] house Iowa. That's so crazy!

{While driving to Daddy's office one day}
B: Who works in that building next to Daddy?
Me: I don't know...
B: Maybe it's Donald Duck
(Craig attended a work conference in Orlando in September and brought back a couple of souvenirs from Disney World, or "Mickey Mouse's house" as we told him. This is all we can make sense of the Donald Duck comment!)
B: (Sighing) I tired. Can I go take a nap?
And let's end with the things a 3-year old probably shouldn't say...

B: What the heck?!
B: I said idiot!!
