overheard in my house recently

as the vocabulary of m. explodes, we are deciphering new words and phrases daily. lately he has begun to chant "myme, myme, myme, myme!" i have recently discovered that this means "mine!" and also "give me whatever food/drink that is you have!"

m.: myme, myme, myme, myme!!!
f.: what m.?
m.: myme, myme, myme, myme!!
f.: look m. - i am not your mommy!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

on the way out the door to school one morning. apparantly i can be particularly charming before my coffee!

me: f. you are supposed to have your shoes on, lets go your brothers are waiting for us in the car.
f.: come on, i didnt know i was supposed to have my shoes on
me: well, did you think you were going to school without shoes?
me: lets go, close the door behind you. what do you think you live in a barn?
f: what do you live in a house with the rest of the witches?
