I don't like it

Xavier is getting to be quite a toddler. He is now able to express himself more and more. Just this week, I noticed that he has a favorite phrase to use: "I don't like... (followed by whatever it is we are doing)."
I was changing him this morning and he said, "I don't like Desitin Mommy." Then as i was putting his pamper he said, "I don't like the pamper mommy." and then again when I was putting his t-shirt and shorts on he said, "I don't like the shirt mommy. I don't like the pants."
So I said, "I think you just like using that sentence because it's new. What do you want me to do? Let you roam around the house naked?" Sometimes I forget that he might not really understand me the way I talk to him.
Then this afternoon, he was trying to carry our overnight luggage and it fell. He cried and I gave him a hug and said "I am sorry Xavier, I am so sorry." So he calmed down and wiped his tears and said, "Time out mommy." and he pointed to his timeout corner.
