Top 5

Yesterday Greg [lovingly] called to me by my 2nd name: "WOMAN!" when I accidentally unplugged our satellite connection when I had vacuumed earlier. Anyway, Tyson and I were in another room, and all of the sudden he began yelling, "Wooman! Wooman!" and laughing. This got me thinking about all of my favorite sayings of his, and who they originated from...

Here are my Top 5 Favorite Tyson Sayings to date:

1. "Shoot, baby!" -- He usually says this when he falls down. Sometimes I hear him say it when he is playing and his trucks/airplanes crash, or when something else in his make believe world goes wrong. I will have to say I am guilty of teaching him this one. Whenever he'd fall as a youngster I would say, "Oh! Shoot Baby, are you okay??" I guess he was listening, and/or he fell a lot.

2. "Oh dang it!" -- This phrase most often is said when he is frustrated and can't accomplish whatever he is trying to. This is our warning that tears are on the way. Both Greg and I say "Dang it" so we'll give a point (or a strike) to both of us.

3. "What you think 'bout that!" -- This was my favorite for a while. Tyson says this when he has the "nerve" or is really hyper/trying to get us to laugh. I said this once to him when we were baking cookies, I decided to roll the dough in sugar and when I finished I said, "What do ya think about that, huh?" and he repeated it. I laughed so hard that I believe I may have encouraged him.

4. "Whoa, baby!" -- This is clearly my fault. Can you hear Greg saying that (the correct answer is no, he is not a cowboy). When Tyson does something tricky or dangerous I say, "Whoa, Baby!"--still do.. It's cute when he says it on his own. I guess the real cute part is the face he makes--like I just escaped my death. Aren't I cool?

5. "NO-WELL, MOM!" -- This is my fav right now. Once when I was vacuuming Tyson kept wanting me to watch him do things and I told him I would watch in a minute. He went to the top of the stairs (I was half way down vacuuming them) and yelled (twice), "No-Well Mom!" as loud as he could. Once I figured out what he was saying, I almost fell down the stairs. That one is all Aunt Faith's fault. Once we got separated in the Gap and she had Tyson. She told him to say, "Noel, where are you?" to find me--I guess he remembered my name. It was so funny to hear him call me Noel...

6. "No help, Mommy" -- I remembered this one when I was trying to find the video clip I knew I had of #3. This one is kind of funny, kind of sad. And he says it for almost everything now. I guess he is rapidly approaching the ripe-old age of 2. I am pretty sure he came up with this one on his own... Dang it!
