Funny Conversations

I'm just going to admit that I'm paranoid that when Baron comes along I'll be too distracted to remember or write down the funny things Jackson says. I know, it's weird, like my unfounded paranoia that Jackson would have no clothes during my first pregnancy. Anyway, in order to combat that fear I am way overblogging(if that's not a word it should be and therefore I now deem it one) these days. I am aware of it so just feel free to skip our painstakingly detailed blog for the next month because I know I won't be doing this much when I've got two. But for now, I'm logging these memories forever. Hopefully, I'll actually take the time to read them again in the future:)


Me: Jackson do you want to be potty trained?
Jackson: I don't know mommy. Where does that train go?


Me: Jackson you look like a three eyed alien right now! (I am too lazy to explain the context and really. . .it doesn't matter)
Jackson: An alien from mars?
Me: Yeah, that's right. How did you know that aliens come from mars?
Jackson: Mommy goofy goes to mars to see aliens. You need watch mickey mouse clubhouse more!

Jackson: (looking through a catalog) mommy, this car is red?
Me: Yes
Jackson: Mommy, I need this car.
Me: You have to be 16 to drive Jax. You're only 2.
Jackson: Actually (and for some reason I just love it when he uses that word), I am 16 mom. Adrienne say happy birthday to me today. I 16 now.
Me: Ok, Jackson. Where are you going in your red car?
Jackson: Well, I taking Ellie and Emma to meet Santa's mother.

After picking up Jackson from church Sunday, Carrie (one of his teachers) commented on how much Jackson talks and how much he says (a pretty common comment from anyone who spends time with him). She also mentioned that a little girl had gotten hurt and Jackson immediately ran to her and put one hand on her back and held her hand with his other hand. He just kept saying, "it's ok, I've got you. I've got you friend." According to Carrie it was really sweet despite the fact that the little girl was freaked out by Jackson's aggression in helping her:)

A few days ago we were watching Cinderella and talking about the fairy godmother. I then was explaining to Jackson that Adrienne and Carolyn were his godmothers. With wide eyes and a serious look of amazement he said, "Oh my gosh, Adrienne is God's MOTHER?!?!"

Today as Jay and Jackson were leaving for Baytown Jackson gave me several hugs and kisses and said, "mommy, I'm going very far far away for a long time. But I will come right back to you in a few days. And I will call you when it's night night time."

When we put him to bed lately after singing, praying, etc. he always says, "ok mommy and daddy see you when it's light outside (he's not allowed to wake us up unless it's light). Yous two guys can do whatever you want now."

Yesterday we were asking Jackson what he thought about different middle names for Baron. We asked him about Baron Isaiah and told him we were considering it. He immediately said, "no, we NOT thinking about Bearnon Isaiah. My name now Jackson Isaiah and Bearnon can be Bearnon Christian Anams. Isaiah my name, not for him."

And I don't know if I have written about this yet but Jackson has been moving some of his favorite items around so that his brother won't touch them or mess them up when he comes. And really, can you blame him, Jackson is so careful and gentle with things why wouldn't he be worried about an immobile infant:)

Yesterday after our church MOMS Connection meeting Jackson told me that Ellie was coming to over to play.
Me: Really, I didn't know that, when is she coming?
Jackson: Six o' clock mommy.
Me: Jackson, Ellie can't come over today but she will come over soon. Do you miss her?
Jackson: I really miss her and she is coming for a long long time. Adrienne has tummy ache and is going to dr. We are watching Ellie for a long long time! Adrienne cried, she have bad bad bad tummy ache. Dr. will make her feel better.

Ok, enough for now. . .I'm sure I'll think of a few more to add later!
