"First we will go to our repointment, then we'll get a treat, then we'll go to the library?"
"Well, first we'll get gas, since Daddy's car is just about out of gas, and then we'll go to the doctor's, and then we'll get a treat, and then the library. I think."
"Why is your car out of gas?"
"Because I drove it a long time, and all the gas got used up."
"Oh, you should turn the GPS on."
"That will help with the gas, you think?"
"No, I just want to watch the picture of the car."
"Sure. I'm turning the GPS on. Tell you what, I'll even put in the address so that it takes us there."
"Okay. The roads are purple on the GPS."
...
"You know James, I thought we needed to take 390 North to get there...I wonder why the GPS thinks we should go 390 South?"
"Are you gonna make a wrong turn, Daddy?"
"I hope not."
"recalculating route"
"Oh, come on now, you can't tell me to go the wrong way and then recalculate as soon as I follow your advice!"
"Did you take a wrong turn, Daddy?"
...
"Are you gonna take the wrong turn this time, Daddy?"
"I hope not. Let's see, now it wants us to use the service road...that's closed for construction."
"recalculating route"
"Did you take the wrong turn, Daddy?"
"...James, I think we're going to turn the GPS off for a bit."
...
"Hey, is this the hospital where we got Owen?"
"This isn't where we GOT Owen, but do you remember coming here with Mommy a few times so that we could look at pictures of Owen while he was still in Mommy's tummy?"
"I do. We took the elevator up."
"That's right. I think we're going to take the elevator down today though."
"If we get a new baby, we would need to take the elevator up."
"James, we aren't having a new baby anytime soon...but do you think that maybe we should sometime?"
"Would we ride the elevator up again if we had another new baby like Owen?"
"Yes, we would need to ride the elevator up to go see Mommy's doctor."
"I like to ride the elevator up."
"Do you think, if we had a new baby some time, that maybe we should have another boy baby or a girl baby."
"Hey, if we have a girl baby we should name it Alexa."
"Maybe. Yeah, we could talk about that."
"Hey, Owen is a boy baby, right?"
"Yes, Owen is a boy."
...
"Hi James, my name is Christine. It's nice to meet you! I'm going to see how tall you are and how much you weigh. Can you follow me? And can you tell me who your friends are?"
"My name is George, and this is Steven Bear."
"James, please talk to Ms. Christine in James' voice, not in George's voice."
"My friends are George and Steven."
"Oh, I see that they must go with you everywhere. They look very well...loved. How long have you had them?"
"James says he doesn't remember."
"He hasn't set the bear down since he was six months old."
"James doesn't like shots."
"Don't worry James, you aren't going to get any shots today."
"Oh, okay. Hey, do you know, we have an Owen at home."
...
"That was it James...do you think we should go get our treat?"
"Yeah, are we going to get a milkshake?"
"Yes, we will go to Wegmans and get a milkshake for you."
"You know, we should use the GPS to get there."
...
"So what do you think of that milkshake?"
"It's pretty good. Hey, can I have some more of your ice cream?"
"Yeah, one more bite. Do you want to look for a pastry brush for Mommy once we're done here?"
"Okay. We should get something nice for Mommy."
"I think that's a great idea. What's something nice that you think Mommy might like?"
"Do you think she might like some Cinnamon Crunch Toast?"
"Ummm...I don't think that's her favorite cereal. Should we get her favorite cereal, though?"
"Yeah, we should get Mommy her favorite cereal that she likes best."
"James, I think that's a great idea."
