Festival weekend and funny phrases

We went to two different festivals last weekend.  The first one was local and okay, but the only things for kids were giant inflatables.  I took Sam into one and thought he would enjoy it - he did not.  He wanted to get out after less than a minute.  He loved the bouncy pillow several weeks ago, but maybe because this was enclosed it didn't seem the same to him.

After the festival bust we went to a local pick-your-own strawberry farm.  Sam was excited to see that he was allowed to eat the strawberry after he picked it.  I helped him eat one and then told him to follow me down the aisle to find more - the area where we were had mostly green berries.  I turned around to catch him plucking a berry off the plant by himself.  He held it up and said "strawberry eat".  I told him he could eat it and then leaned down to pick a berry myself.  When I looked back at him a couple of seconds later I saw the leaves of the berry entering his mouth.  He chomped a couple of times and swallowed.  Oh well.

The second festival was the next day and was a small version of the State Fair.  Sam got to ride a pony for the first time and eat a corn dog and share daddy's turkey leg (which he really liked). He also enjoyed riding the kiddie train which he called the baby choo-choo train.

A couple of days ago I was peeling a banana for Sam.  It was a bigger one that he normally gets and when I got it out of the peel he looked at it and said "WOW" in a very astonished tone.  Later that day we were playing with a blanket on the couch.  At one point I was pretending to be asleep and was using the blanket as a pillow and he tried to take it away from me.  I said "don't steal my blanket" and he giggled.  A few minutes later he grabbed the blanket and said "I steal your blanket".   Sam was in timeout and was moaning/whining (difficult to describe the noise he was making) about being in the chair.  He kept making that noise for a while and finally I said to him "zip it" in an almost sing-songy voice and he immediately replied with "zip it" in an almost snarky voice.  Will and I both busted up laughing and had to walk around the corner.
