a couple more toddlerisms

(we're getting ready for bed a couple of nights ago...Trent is in jammies and I just finished reading him a story from one of his "special big boy books")

Me: we're all done. Let's go say goodnight to daddy and Ryan, and then we've got one more thing to do. do you know what we forgot?

Trent: need coupons!

Me: (hoping that Joel hasn't heard and thinks I'm programming Trent to be a crazy coupon user or something) uh, no. I meant we need to brush your teeth.

Trent: no coupons?

Me: nope. no coupons. just our goodnights and some teeth brushing.

Last night, Trent's bedtime was coming up and he wanted Joel to read to him. He had a book that he knows well enough to "read" to us. Joel asked him to read the book out loud and Trent looked at him and said (in a very very sad voice) "is too big for me to read." Poor little guy!

(and then one from today. Trent was seriously cracking me up with strange comments all day long...but this one was by far the weirdest! We had just grabbed lunch at the mall and were headed to the car)

Trent: Have my water mommy.

Me: yep, you're carrying your water. That was a yummy lunch wasn't it. What did you eat?

Trent: Have water.

Me: Yes, you drank water with lunch. do you remember what you ate?

Trent: had gas for lunch mommy.

Me: gas???
