(snack time)

Alex: I’m gonna have juice and cookies.

Daddy: Are you excited?
Alex: Yeah.
Daddy: Are you dismayed?
Alex: Yeah.
Daddy: Alex, are you flabbergasted?
Alex: No.

Alex: Cookies!


Alex: It was my birthday yesterday. It’s my – best thing. It’s not Claire’s birthday yet.


Alex: I like my feet. I had fun outside.
Daddy: You had fun?
Alex: Yeah. The trucks were trying to figure out where they go and they had a birthday party today. The birthday party’s next time.


(At dinner, Alex is playing with his bread.)

Bread: I’m the king! I’m an airship, num num num, num num num, I’m a baby bird.

Bread: I'm a truck! I’m a dog! And you put, on your head!

(Alex continues to play with his bread.)
Alex: No it’s the other train. No it’s the other train. No it’s the other train.
Alex: Choo choo. Choo choo.
Alex: It’s on my hand.
Alex: I have a hand. Hm.
(Alex crumples the bread into a ball.)
Alex: I made a sandwich.


(Alex is helping Daddy put away the clean linens.)
Alex: I can't reach. I'm too big. I'm gonna grow bigger!
Daddy: Yeah.
Alex: When I grow bigger, I'm gonna be a daddy!
Daddy: Yeah!
Alex: We'll be two daddies!
Daddy: That’s right!
Alex: There'll be two daddies here!
Daddy: That’s right!


(Alex reads Big Red Barn to Claire.)
Daddy: Good job, Alex. I liked that. Claire liked that too. When you’re a daddy, you can read stories to your little boy.
Alex: We're daddies together!
Daddy: Yeah!
Alex: (marching around enthusiastically): We’re daddies! We’re daddies! I’m a daddy! I’m a daddy! I’m a daddy!
