A smart-ass...already????

Tonight after getting the boys out of the bath tub, I sent them each to go pick out their PJ’s.  Jack got his on but Callen walked naked into the kitchen where I was cooking dinner and held up a pair of khaki pants and a brown shirt.  He said that he wanted to wear them to bed.  The following conversation then took place:
Me:  “Callen, put those away and pick out some pajama’s.  Those are daytime clothes; you need sleep clothes.”
Callen:  “But Mom, my thumb says yes”.  (He’s giving me the thumbs up sign)
Me:  “But Callen, my mouth says no.  Go put those away.”
Callen:  “But my thumb says yes!”  (Again, he’s giving the thumbs up sign and now has a huge smirk on his face)
Me:  “Callen, I’m not going to argue with your thumb.”
Callen:  “I’m not going to argue with your mouth.”
He knew that last comment could get him in trouble, so he said it in a cute, joking sort of way.  What a smart-ass!  He's only 3!!!
