A conversation between brothers

This morning as we were eating breakfast, Reagan put a Lego fireman in to a Lego dump truck.
Cooper says, "Fireman don't drive dump trucks"
Reagan responds, "Why?"
Cooper, "Because fireman drive fire trucks and fire vans."
Reagan, "Why?"
Cooper, "Because they put out fires."
Reagan seemed satisfied with that answer.

Cooper - Ladies' Man?

I was walking Cooper to school earlier this week and ran in to the mom of a girl in his class, she had a story she wanted to tell me.

She and her daughter, Isabella, were talking about marriage, and how you were supposed to marry a boy. Isabella declared that boys were yucky and she definitely did not want to marry a boy. Her mother than started going through each of the boys she knew and Isabella declared them each "too yucky". When she got to Cooper, Isabella stopped and said "I could marry Cooper."

This made me strangely proud. My son is not as yucky as the other boys! ;)

Why? Why? Why? Because. . .

Reagan still has far fewer words than I would expect considering how well he understands us and how well he gets his point across. However, he has picked up his brother's favorite word, "Why?". I have tried to explain to him that most kids learn a few more words before picking up on asking "Why?" all the time, but he simply responded "Why?". ;)
My absolute favorite is when Reagan is asking "Why?" and Cooper answers "Because". I swear I try so very hard to not use that as an answer to Cooper's questions, but it must be slipping in. . .
A video of Reagan's "Why? Why? Why?".

Some of Reagan's other words:
Mommmmeeeee
Daddddeeeee
No
This
Hot
Move (when he wants you to move)
Hide (when he wants to hide under the duvet)
Out
Bee
Owie
Dog
Me
Bubble
Bottle
Ball
Apple
Eyes
Please
Chips
Shoes
My (muslin)
Bus
Taxi
Milk
Juice
More
I am sure I am missing a few. Of course, as a second child, I am not keeping as much track. . . oops!
