And it fell in the house. They couldn’t believe it.

(Alex is looking at pictures on the calendar.)
Alex: Hey, look, it's Mommy's running stuff! It's Mommy's running stuff!
Mommy: Yeah.
Alex: Why don't you go running any more?


Claire: When Alex eats -- at breakfast time and at dinner time, he plays at the table.


(Claire comes running into the kitchen.)
Claire (excitedly): Daddy!!! Daddy!!! I have a fan in my room!
Daddy: Wow!
Claire: Because my -- because my room is very hot.


Alex: Look, Daddy, Mommy's Blackberry keeps saying [imitating the tones] "dih-guk!" I don't want it to say "dih-guk".


(Alex is playing with the little dollhouse. The following are the voices of the dollhouse residents.)
Alex (as ???): Mom? Is it okay if we live in our cousins' house?
Alex (as "Mom"): Of course! But for one day… you can live, and play, and at night time you can sleep.
Alex (as ???): Okay, can we take our beds?
Alex (as "Mom"): Of course you could.
Alex (as ???): Well, what about baby?
Alex (as "Mom"): Well, okay, of course you can.
Alex (as ???): Thanks, Mom.


(Alex narrates as he plays with the doll house.)
Alex: Let’s sleep up here.
Alex: Uh-oh. But… there was… a storm, at night.
Alex: It knocked down the ladders.
Alex: Got them all slippery.
Alex: And it fell in the house. They couldn’t believe it.
Alex: At night, he was taking a nap.
Alex: Nap, nap, nap, nap.
Alex: And then the chair boomed. And fell over.
Alex: He fell out. He fell through an ice.
Alex (in a sad voice): Oh, I’m cold. I’m outside.
Alex (in a sad voice): Need to climb inside. Upstairs I go.
Alex (in a sad voice): Sit in my chair. Have a nap again.
Alex (in a baby voice): Baby (mumble). Baby crawled out of bed.
Alex: Mom! We’re not sleepy! But how’re we gonna get back over to your house. We’re scared of the storm!
Alex: Don’t worry, I’ll come! In the next morning! At five o’clock.
Alex: Okay?
Alex: Uh-oh.
Alex: The bed shook! The bed shook.
Alex: The rug… flew away. Right into their next house. Where the baby was sleeping.
Alex (in a baby voice): Baby, sleeping?
Claire: That’s mine, can I have that baby?
Alex: But then… woke Grandma – um, woke up. And her, his cousin woke up.
Alex: Whoa! Whoa.
Alex: And then somebody fell out of his chair! And then, the brother said, “Oh. (unintelligible) fell out!”
Alex: It’s slippery. Come on!
Alex: Baby, what’s wrong?
Alex (in a baby voice): I wanna (mumble) something, but I’m scared to get out!
Alex: Um, we’re scared too – come on!
(The saga continues.)

Claire: And, the baby, and the dada, and the –
Alex (shouting): Break the window, please, I need to get to the other side!!

Alex: You wanna come with us? We’re riding on the triceratops.
Claire: I don’t wanna come with – you guys.

Alex: Ohhhh! We’re tired!
Alex: Well then… they’ll find a bed in there, and then you can sleep in it.
Alex: How ‘bout we sleep in here?
Claire: Okay, here’s some logs, guys! I found you some logs!
Alex: Oh thanks, we’ll come back and get it later.
Claire (angrily): No these are their logs!
Claire (angrily): These are their logs.
Alex: Oh.

Alex: Can’t fit! In our room.
Alex: What are you doing?
Alex: Are you sure?!
Alex: Are you crazy?! You can’t fit in our room! We’ll bump our heads!

Alex: Ah. My jacket’s comin’ off. I don’t wanna take my jacket off. So I’ll have to leave.
Alex: You woke up early. Everybody’s still asleep!
Alex: Oh. Okay, I’ll lie with you.
Alex: But when she came, and said: “You guys! You were – there, for – three days, I think. So. Why don’t you come back to our house? This storm.”
Alex: Sorry. But, we just were playing. With just – our friends.
Alex: Oh. Oh. What were you doing?
Alex: I was taking them a ride.
Alex: But. Isn’t it so hard to ride on you?
Alex: Well, they sat on my horns.
Alex: It’s so hard.
Alex: Well they’re not, right now. They’re just soft, because rain fell on them.
Alex: Oh. And, can, can, can you, please, come to our house?

Claire: There’s another storm!
Alex: Uh-oh.
Claire: It’s a storm!

Alex (to Daddy, laughing): He’s sleeping in his nap chair.
(Daddy laughs.)
Alex: At night he sleeps in his nap chair. He calls it his nap chair.
Daddy: Is it a nap chair?
Alex: Yeah, do you know why he calls it a nap chair?
Daddy: Why?
