David Spade may well be the King of No in those Capital One commercials, but Alex could give him a run for his money for that part. He has definitely learned the fine art of saying no. In fact, it is particularly cute because it usually comes in the form of "No, No, ______, Mommy/Daddy, No _____!" With _____ being whatever he doesn't want to hear us say or do at the moment. For example:
We usually count to three together before I pick him up for any reason. Well, a week or so ago he didn't want to get out of the tub. So when I said, "Time to get out of the tub, Alex! Ready? One...." the response was "No, No, Two, Mommy, No Two!"
"Yes, Alex, time to get out. Two...." "No, no three Mommy, No three!" He certainly knows how to count to three!
Other funny turns of phrase include "No, no, Dude, Daddy, No Dude" (in response to Mike's attempts to calm a fit by saying "Duuuuude, relax!") and No, no, Go, Daddy, No Go! (In response to Mike's trying to distract him out of a fit in the car by getting him excited to go through a green light).
Ahh, the power of No!
