Treyisms from April

How did it become May already?
Some of these are long so bare with me.

1. After eating pizza one evening at my brother in law's house we were all still sitting around the table talking. Trey climbs up to the table and stands on a chair. He looks very serious. He raises his arms out as if he's the pope getting ready to speak to the masses. In a loud but calm voice he says "Let us pray". After making sure we all folded our hands and bowed our heads he instructed me to pray. So I blessed the already eaten pizza. But that wasn't good enough. Trey said we needed a longer prayer. So this time we blessed the pizza, the people at the table, pets, other random animals, trees, flowers, cars, etc. until Trey cut me off with a loud AMEN.

2. We were playing after bath time, rough housing. Trey announces in a deep, growling, WWF voice, "I'm gonna put you in a head lock!". It took me by surprise and I laughed. I asked where he'd heard that. I was already guessing his cousin, uncle Cody, or maybe a boy from the babysitters. But Trey accused Grandma. Rex and I exchanged glances neither of us believed this. But a few days later when I told Grandma the story she laughed and laughed. She finally managed to admit that she did teach Trey that phrase in the context of a silly game they were playing. Guess I should trust that Trey knows what he's talkin about.

3. A few days after the head lock incident Trey says to me, "I'm gonna give you a knuckle sandwich!". Of course he followed that statement up with, "and you're gonna eat it all up!". But guess where he learned that one......if you guessed Grandma again, you are right.

4. I was nursing the baby and Trey came over and started pushing on my belly. I asked him what he was doing. His reply: " I helping smush the milk out".

5. At a play date with the girls from Jasper. Trey was cooing at one of the babies, "Oh hi 'Tato head. You so cute 'Tato head". I have no idea why he was calling the baby Potato Head.

6. Poppy and Aunt Ash were babysitting and drew a huge train track with chalk in the driveway. This kept Trey busy for quite some time. Ashley cracked up when Trey chugged backwards towards her. "Let's buffer up!" He said in an English accent as he pushed his butt into her knees.

7. On our way to Indianapolis I was reading some directions I had printed out. Trey must have noticed this. On our way home I was talking to myself about where to turn and Trey pipes up from the back, "You better check your list, Mommy."

8. We were discussing how veggies will make you grow strong. We talked about how a lot of veggies are green, yellow or orange. We were naming off different vegetables. Trey asked in a hopeful voice "is macaroni a edgetable? Its yellow"

Last but not least. My favorite for the month. (my apologies to any men who are reading)
9. I had started my period one night and the next morning I was grumbling to myself as I noticed the spots on my pajamas and my bed sheets. Trey noticed too. He asks "is dat blood?" I answer him hoping there won't be any follow up questions. Instead he makes a face and exclaims, "That is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen!" Typical male.
