Oh my, we were looking at pictures of my daughter (who is now almost three) when she was a new born. She kept flipping back to one particular picture and going EWWWWW. I finally ask her what she is talking about and she says, "There's poop." Huh? So I say "Where?" "There!" and she points. She is talking about her umbilical cord. I just started cracking up. What did your kids do today to make you laugh?
I took my 4 yr old son, 4 yr. old niece and 2 yr. old daughter to the zoo today. The kids sat down at a picnic table to eat and without prompting, clinked sippy cups together and shouted "Cheers!"
Here are a few recent ones (which I wrote on my facebook page so I wouldn't forget!):
Younger child, when I asked if she wanted to do gymnastics: "I don't need to go to gymnastics school. I just need you to stop getting mad at me when I jump off of the furniture."
*****************************************************
A few weeks ago, younger daughter wanted to write to older daughter, who was at summer camp. I told her to write something that would make her smile. Before we sent it off, I read what she wrote: "Dear Kiki, I love you and I miss you, and I've been in your room playing with all your toys." Ah, sisters!
******************************************************
younger daughter: "My autograph is better than yours."
older daughter: "What? I don't sign autographs."
younger daughter: "That's because you don't have any fans."
******************************************************
Older daughter, upon being called out for revealing younger daughter's secret crush, "It's what I live for. If I couldn't do it anymore, life wouldn't be bearable."
My 3 year old ran up to a Volkswagon bug in my gym parking lot and punched it and said, "SLUG BUG....ouch".
He still doesn't get the rules of the game.
My 6yo decided he was so very bored he sat half in and half out of the backyard sliding door that he fell asleep sitting there half curled into a ball (so his head was on his knees. lol.
Had to move him because he didn't have a shirt on and was in the sunshine. And when I picked up him, he was so far asleep that he snuggled into my shoulder like he did when he was tiny... awwwww.
Asked my 4 year old to put on his underwear this morning as he streaked around the house. He just smiled and said "I'm wearing my bottom today, Mommy!" :-)
My children had informed me yesterday that they were going to invent a motor scooter that runs on solar energy.
Our conversation today went like this.
My son: "When is the next time we're going to Home Depot?"
Me: "Why?"
"Because J. and I need to get a motor."
"I don't think they sell just plain motors."
"Well, they sell appliances. Appliances have motors."
"That's true. Are you planning to buy an appliance just to take out the motor?"
"If that's what it takes!"
And a little later........
"Does Home Depot sell solar panels?"
I just love my little environmentalist!
My six year old told me that he would stop getting in trouble if the other kids would just stop telling on him.
It was so hard not to laugh and explain that maybe he shouldn't be doing thing that needed telling on...lol
This was 2 days ago, but hilarious. My 5 year old son drew a stick figure picture and named it Pilcher. He put it in his shirt and said he was going to have a baby. He even slept with it in his shirt. Next day, I found the picture on his chair, and asked him if Pilcher was born. He said, "oh, yes" and then went through his toy box until he pulled out a teeny beanie baby koala and introduced it to me as Pilcher. The mother is another stuffed animal called Mary Mouse. Apparently, they have 3 other children, Baldy a bald eagle, Chippy a Monchichi (80's toy), and Kevin a monkey. He made a house for them out of magnatiles on his night stand.
I told my 3 yr old that our dog was going to probably die and go to doggie heaven. (I had to put him down) "They have a road there?" he asked me and I informed him that no, there was no road to heaven and that the dog would be in heaven with God. "Oh so maybe a spaceship?" (ie - the road won't get us there to visit, but the spaceship will). I had to laugh. Such innocence.
My grand daughter came home for her 4th day of preschool and was so excited to show us something the teacher taught her. She said, "Look grama, when you want to say words, you just go like this",,and slowly put her hand up in the air. And then stared at it like it was some magical thing shed learned..lol
My daughter (9) makes me laugh EVERY day! If I had written it all down, I would have a book by now...
My son (9) told me he didn't want to grow up to be a famous actor because the paparazzi would bother him at home. And yes, he did use the word paparazzi.
My 5 year old was having trouble refolding the sale paper, in frustration she spouted "Oh, for Pete's sake!".
At bath time, she told her father she was "Grody".
