I think my daughter is aspiring to be a comedian.
Yesterday she found a batman symbol t shirt, and became fascinated with it. So pointing at the symbol I ask her, "What is that?"
She says, "It's a monster.." then got this gravelly demonic voice and said, "Iiiii LIKE IT!"
Just now she is playing in the tub and I hear her go "R A V E N", this makes me excited because we are working on her spelling and recognizing her name, which is Raven. So I ask her "What does that spell?" and she yells "BEAR!" face/palm. Never a dull moment.
What have your kids done to make you laugh recently?
Definitely on a roll, her new thing is sitting on the potty for two seconds and then yelling, "Yay! Poopoo potty, get ice cream!" which of course she hasn't. So just now she was sitting there and pretend straining, the looks at me and shrugs, "Bum's broken no poop." :)
We saw a delivery truck pull up at the neighbor's and unload a huge (clothes washer) box. I asked my 3.5 y/o what he thought might be in that box, and without hesitation, he exclaimed, "Beer!!"
We don't drink, and he's home with me all day, so I have no idea where he got that!
It's been a while since she said it, but I still laugh every time I think of it...
P: Mom, I am never going to give in to peter pressure...
M.: WHAT???!!!!
P: Peter pressure...you know, when you're friends are doing something bad and they want you to do it, too.
BWAHAHAHAHAH!!!
Yesterday my son came home from kindergarten and announced, "There's a kid in my class that has diarrhea. He can't eat a lot of sugar, but he has to watch his sugar and sometimes he really needs sugar."
A couple days ago my 3 year old was watching me put some things in a bag to return to the store. After explaining what I was doing he paused and asked, "Mom, did we get Gideon (his baby brother) from the store?" (There's been some sibling jealousy there ;)
Last one...about a week ago my 3 year old went through this...phase (?)...when he would go potty he would look down and say, as if surprised, "Oh! It's working!"
Never mind...one more... :) A little while ago we were getting into the car to go somewhere and I told my daughter, "Hon, your door is ajar."
daughter: "No it's not."
me: "Yah, it is...the little light up here says it's ajar"
daughter: "Mom. It's a door. Even if the light says it's a jar, it's still just a door."
:)
Anyway...they make me laugh on a regular basis...which is good...helps balance out my sanity :)
It's probably because she's my own baby that I think it's hilarious, but my 16 month old says "Beat-a-Boo" and "Pete-a-Boo"...points at messes she's made and says "uh, oh, I nonny" (naughty) and teases her big sister by pretending to hand her something, and then yanking it away. I also turned my back on her for like, 20 seconds the other day and found her standing on TOP of the piano...not the keys, literally, on top. I was like...How? Seriously? while trying not to laugh or scream and scare her into falling.
My little guy (almost 2.5) is asking for a "candy bar" the last couple of days and I don't give them to him! He's so serious when he says, "I want a candy bar" that it makes me laugh : )
Last week was my son's 5 year check up. As we were getting ready to leave he asked me if he could put on long pants (it was about 90 degrees that day) and for a moment I was confused, but then the lightbulb went on and I realized he thought he could avoid getting a shot if his legs were covered!
Recently we were discussing the possibility of getting a family pet and I asked him what kind he might like. He told me he wanted a hippopotamus. He's totally serious and does not understand why we can't get one!
I was just at the store buying some undershirts for my husband this evening. My 12 yo son and 9 (almost) yo daughter were with me. My daughter said, with all of the outrage in her voice that only 9 yo girls have,
"Oh, that is SO disgusting!"
"What is disgusting?! Dad needs some new t-shirts."
"No. THAT! WHY do they have to take pictures of that and put them where everyone can see them?"
"Sweetheart, that is just underwear. Everyone knows about underwear. It's not disgusting to have a picture of it."
"Well, you're just a grown up, so you can't understand." (WTH??)
My daughter was eating lunch today and had finished the bread from her meatball sub, so I reminded her to eat the meatballs too. She picked up the meatball in her hand, holds it at eye-level and says "Hi Meatball, how are you?" *pause* "Oh, that's cool. Be nice now.". And takes a huge bite out of it. She's not even 2.5!
My 2 DD's were gettign ready in the AM and my oldest goes into my bathroom and starts singing to my youngest "You need to come in and go potty, go potty, go potty, you need to go potty and do it right now" my youngest replies...im coming, im coming, im coming, to go potty right now...to the theme of the little people song The More We Get Together...
total glee moment!!! LMAO!!!
The other day I snuck up behind my son (18 mo) while he was playing and put a snack in his hand. He whipped around and immediately said up! I pick him up and he gives me the biggest, wettest kiss! He was so happy!
