Where we goin'?

I think all 3-year olds have a question they ask repeatedly... this is N's.  "Where we goin?" is the first thing I hear in the morning, meaning "where are we going today?"  It's the last thing I hear at night, meaning "where are we going tomorrow" and if we are actually going somewhere it is the question I will hear all the way to our destination, even if he clearly knows the answer.  

I think he asks this because we do seem to always be going somewhere... here are some great N conversations!

Last week we were headed to get our passport paperwork done to go to England, then we were going to the beach afterward.  We told N we had to go do some paperwork to get our passports so we could go to England.  He seemed OK with this, but in the waiting room he said rather thoughtfully, "Someone else live in our Florida home now."  I said no, it is still our Florida home, and it took me a while to realize that he thought we were getting our passports and heading straight to England!  (Mind you, he has no idea that is really far away, so it cracked us up.) We told him were going to live in our Florida home for a while and that we were going to the beach after we were done doing paperwork.  After the beach we decided to stop for ice cream (pretty rough, huh?) and we told N so.  He thought for a while and said, "We go to England after ice cream store!"  

A couple of days later we passed the same building where we did our passport paperwork.  N piped up from the back seat, "We get passporps there!"  Ah yes, our passporps, I love a good passporp.

He has lots of other funny phrases that I wanted to get written down.  He uses the words "also" and "maybe" a lot.  Like "maybe we go England 'morrow?"  or "E-i go England also."  Oh good, we wouldn't want to leave him behind.  Better get his passporp.

He likes to build stuff, and one of his favorites to build is a "skyscrape."  

If he his telling you something is his, he says "That's my's."  Like "that's my's place map."  (Place mat.)

He's really into Thomas the Tank Engine, but he doesn't quite have all the names down.  Instead of Henry we have "Henwy" and my favorite, "Bordon" instead of Gordon.  

We are borrowing a friend's truck while we are here, and N refers to it as "big truck."  Like "we take big truck and go beach!"  Yup, this is the life!
