Daddy: What?
Alex: You’re Stephanie, right?
Daddy: I’m Stephanie?
Alex: Yeah. ‘Cause Mommy’s, um…


Alex (on the couch with Daddy): I wanna lie like this and watch football with you.


(nap time)
Alex (to Daddy): Tell me something.


(after nap)

Alex: Look at him. Look at him. Look at my bear.

Alex: Oh - I don't have a bib.
Daddy: That's okay, you were very clean.
Alex: Yeah, I'm very clean.
Alex (to himself): Can't take my bib off without a bib.

Alex: I want you to make me fly again.

Alex: Yay! This wil be fun. It'll be fun.


Alex: Daddy, can you go rest? Claire doesn't want you to bother her.


(Alex is crying because Daddy went downstairs and didn’t take Alex with him.)
Daddy: Why don't you tell Daddy why you’re sad?
Alex: Because… You forgot – forgot somebody.
Daddy: Who did I forget?
Alex: You forget me.


Alex (to Mommy): Daddy forgot me.

Alex (To Mommy): Tell me things.

(Alex is in bed, and Daddy is leaving the room.)
Alex: I want you to be careful and not kick anything.
Daddy: Okay thanks, I'll be careful.
Alex: Don't kick any boxes.
Daddy: Okay, I won't kick any boxes.


(From his bed, Alex narrates the activity in the hallway.)
Alex: Then it was on, then he turned it off, then he was done doing that. Then he went downstairs.
