Life with Sterling certainly gets more interesting as he gets older...
Just this morning, he removed all the pillows from the couch and chairs and sat in the largest chair/lounge, putting on his imaginary seatbelt and told me he was taking off in his helicopter. I was only half paying attention when he said something about going to the hospital and "to get another baby."
"Who's getting a baby?" I asked, fully arrested now.
"I am. My tummy is big (which indeed, it was- with his blankets) and I have to go the hospital and see the doctor and get another baby. And I going to be nice to him. His name is Stairs Bump."
"Stairs Bump, huh? That's a nice name."
"Yeah, only he can talk to me and tell me what he wants. And he tells me he wants one treat (holding up one finger)." Struggling slightly to remove all expression from his face he says with enunciation, "and I say 'No.' And I give him a sandwich."
"Hmmm." I say, not at all sure I like how well I've been imitated by my 4-year old.
"Yeah, and I just now in the helicopter and going to the hospital." He nods wisely at me and repeats, "Yeah."
This is not the first time he's talked about getting more babies- in fact he often tells me he wants three babies! ($@%#!) Apparently the novelty of a new baby brother has not worn off yet. I imagine it will begin when Hylton starts taking his toys...

Taking a helicopter to the hospital isn't a bad idea. After all, there could be grid-lock traffic and the hospital has a heli-pad on the roof so you don't even have to look for a parking spot. Now if I just had my own personal helicopter...
Hey! That is so funny. I remember Sterling when he was in Nursery so it's hard for me to think of him as being 4 already! How old is Hylton anyway?
Oh, and I just noticed that you have my Urban Lettering link on your site. Thank you so much! You're awesome :)
How cute is that! What a funny kid. Speaking of babies, Jazlyn asked me if I had a baby sister in my tummy the other day. I'm thinking, gee thanks for pointing out what's left of the baby belly, but there's NO baby in there now.
I give him a sandwich! That's hilarious! I like the helicopter to the hospital idea...little does Sterling know he could probably make a lot of money on that venture! Smart kid!
I think Maisey has been talking about getting a sister when we have our next baby. WHICH, I never confirmed with her. I have to say she's been freaking our non-member families out when she says stuff like that. It is pretty funny though. Maybe she will plan the next one. I think its just something about having babies around that makes these other little ones think about babies all the time. Its liks they think they're toddlers because they can sit and eat rice cereal. I really love a guy with an imagination. He's one funny boy!
cool guy!
