Funny things our kids have said

[yeswe'rebothD]

I just needed to share these with someone before I forget. Our 4yo has been getting quite smart lately, in more ways than one. A couple of recent conversations:

Mercy is sitting at the table finishing her cereal and dad comments that she is getting milk all over the table. She replies, "I sure am!"

Then tonight, we had pizza for dinner, and I fixed some tater tots too, since we have a friend over to spend the night w/Grace. Turns out neither Grace nor Mercy wanted any, and so I ask, "then just what did I make these for?" Mercy answers, "Nothing!" as she is walking back to the family room.

Cracks me up coming out of a 4yo!

[yeswe'rebothD]

am I just far too amused with my own kid? I know she's not the only one making her parent laugh!

;)

[Treysmom]

There is hardley a day that goes by that Trey does'nt make me laugh. He is very funny naturally. He is beyond his years with his sense of humor.

It really helps on the bad D days..:D

[Mama Belle]

How cute. I remember when my daughter was little and would says stuff like that. She still makes me laugh quite a bit, but when they get older you kinda expect it from them, whereas you don't really see it coming with a 4 year old.

DD came crying to me saying Evan hit her in the stomach. Evan countered that Lohra hit him first. When I asked her, she said "No, I didn't hit him. I bit him." As if that's any better.

Any Wiggles fans out there? Evan told us one night at dinner that he was going to change his name to "Admiral Goodblow" (instead of Goodbloke). I spit my food out on that one.

Keep a diary of the funny things they say. It's great reading material when they're older.

My 10 yo says funny things all the time but I can't think of anything right now.

But I do child care and have some great stories:

3 yo girl has the hiccups. She comes over me to show me. I say "BOO!" I do this all the time. It never works. Well it did this time! Hiccups are gone! I'm proud of myself until I hear this cry and 'but I wanted to keeeep them!'

Almost 5 yo boy is asking me about a party we are going to have for all the child care families. My child care is on the lower level of my trilevel home and the kids rarely get to go up to my living room/kitchen level. He wants to know where we will eat for our party. And I tell him we'll eat upstairs. We'll take the kids' table up there and they will sit there. 'Where will the parents eat?" "at my dining room table' 'Where's that?" "Up there next to the living room." "Oh, you mean the table with all the crap on it?" "The what?" "I mean the table with the bananas and the mail and stuff." LOL

Here's a D funny....

This morning I was fixing some sugar syrup for the hummingbirds. Joel says " I bet there's no such thing as a diabetic hummingbird!"

Joel's 4yo brother (who is language delayed) comes to watch Joel check his bg often. He always says, "What's wrong with Joel?" Joel will say, "I've got the diabetes." Timothy walks off saying "Joel's got the 'beeties."

[3js]

I have heard people on here talking about their NON-D toddlers saying: "I low" in hopes of a sweet. It always cracks me up!

[zeb'smom]

Zeb likes to sing...LOUD. Today he was out with his little mower 'mowing' the lawn, singing at the top of his lungs. Later he was showering off after helping daddy build the deck and again singing at the top of his lungs...jingle bells! Cracked me up.

We have been having an early heat wave with highs in the 90's...quite hot for this early in the summer for us. I keep finding Zeb naked and every time I ask him 'where'd your clothes go?' and he says 'I took them off, they was making my bum sweat'. I can hardly keep underpants on the child, just keeps taking them off (and leaving them where they land). It's gonna be a long summer, but as DH says theres not a lot of time in a person life when they can get away with walking around naked so let him enjoy it while he can.

Tyler is ALWAYS saying things that make us laugh (secretly or he would get cross with us!)

One time in particular sticks in my mind and I quite often think about it.
He was about 3 at the time. I was lounging on the couch one evening and he came and joined me. As he cuddled into me, he looked up at me and said "I love cuddling you, mummy. You are soft and comfy - just like a whale!"
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

Last weekend when we were in Missouri, my 18 month old kept playing in the dog's water, and dumping it out. So I told him to get some more water so we can give it to Jack. He gets in the cooler, gets out a bottle of water and puts the bgottle on the ground in front of the dog, and tries to get him to "drink" the bottle. It was so cute. I guess I should have clarified it. :)

Smetimes when I test Seth at night...He yells JAKE! like his brother is torturing him LOL:p

My kids still say many funny things - but my two personal favorites -

At 4 my oldest kept talking about God and Kevin and if she would see God and Kevin when she died, and Who was God and Kevin - this went on for about two weeks - until it hit me -there is no Kevin - she was talking about God in Heaven.

My youngest, at 3, my earthy child, made it her life's mission to see what 'boy parts' look like. She followed every boy around for weeks, Daddy, cousins, Friends, etc. I come home from school one night and she is jumping up and down telling me that Daddy has tail! (She snuck up on him in the bathroom!)

[Illinifan]

Zach is our performer. He had his first role in a play when he was 4 which included singing a song solo and he joined his first performing arts group at 6. Not long after that he came home one day from rehearsal really mad. I asked him what was wrong and he said "I hear about this guy my whole life and how great a performer he is and then I find out he's DEAD!" I said "Who are you talking about?" and he says "ELVIS!" :)

[aidensmom23]

Aiden is always saying funny things but of course now I forget them all. But today he was waiting for a friend to come over. I told him the clock needed to say 1 1 5. After checking it for the 5th time he said, "Why can't we just make the thing go faster?". Trying to explain why you can't make time speed up to a 4 year old is easier said than done.

That's the second time you made me laugh or smile today:D Thanks:D

[kiwimum]

These are all funny and giving me a much needed laugh today.

The one about finding dads 'tail' reminded me of something that our oldest son did when he was about 2 and a half.

He was running round the house in just a nappy (diaper) and both Carl and I noticed something hanging out the top at the back.
When we caught him to look, it was a tampon string. He had unwrapped one and stuck it between his butt cheeks. He turned to us and said "Just like mummy"!
Obviously at some stage he had seen what you do with them. (You all know what it's like when they are that age - can't even go to the bathroom without them being in there talking to you!) Apart from laughing, I was thinking how you explain to hospital staff if he had needed it surgically removed!

I have actually written all the funny things they have said and did in a book for each of them to have when they are 21. It also has letters to each of them written every 6 months or so just letting them know how much we love them etc.

A couple of weeks ago, we had put Emma to bed, and we could hear her talking to herself through the baby monitor. She was quiet for a moment and then yells "It's my money, and I need it now!"

OMG! I'm dying over here! Many of the quotes are funny but these really had me rolling!

The God one reminded me of a conversation my son had with a friend. She had just started going to a Catholic preschool. It was longer than this but the main point was
C: "God is in our hearts."
N: "So, what is he, like this big?" and held up his hands to show that maybe God is about 2 inches tall.

Elizabeth always sneaks up on me after she goes to bed (she's a restless sleeper) and so last night when she did that, I said, "Elizabeth you scared me!"

"Mommy, I'm not scary, I'm just a little girl who is a princess and very cute."

She also tells me, "you make me nervous" and she's only 5.

When I need to check her ketones, she always says, "Mommy, are you ready to check my taquitos?" That's a Mexican food she likes.

[Mama2H]

So funny :D My girls say things often, for some reason the only thing I can think of right now is Bella's "Froggy" Bella has an imaginary friend and, as you probably guessed, he is a frog. It seems that any time anyone does something they are not suppose to or they are going to get into trouble for "Froggy" did it or made her do it. So one day I told her that I was going to flush froggy down the toilet, I proceeded to "pick up" froggy and march into the bathroom with him. Now this whole time Bella is just laughing so I think hmmm, she doesn't think I am going to "flush" froggy. So I "toss" froggy in the toilet and flush it and Bella runs out of the room laughing. Of coarse I follow her thinking that she should be crying, she heads outside and proceeds to turn on the hose (?huh?), she runs to the end of the hose and says "see mommy, here he comes" and "grabs" him out of the stream of water coming out. Then she says to me "Froggy wants to go again, he says the water slide is fun" :eek:

Still cannot figure out why she thinks when you flush the toilet the water comes out of the hose outside?????

It makes sense - that is way to cute of a story.

Uh oh, hide your credit cards when she's a teenager!!:p

[saxmaniac]

AJ: "Dad, I don't want to eat dinner. I feel sick."
Me: "I'm not sure I believe you. I bet if I brought out the ice cream, you suddenly would feel better."
AJ: (earnestly nodding) "Yes! It would make me feel better!"

[twodoor2]

Lately, everytime my son sees something he likes, he says very enthusiastically, "it's boooo-ti-fuwl!!" ("it's beautiful" in adult terminology). He says that from everything to new pajamas to flowers to some rocks he picks up to a new toilet seat. He's a man of very little words.

This just reminded me - last summer, 10 yr. old DD and her 11 yr. old friend were at the beach with me. I was folding clothes and her friend picks up a pair of my 16 yr. old's boxers. She says "Hey Mrs. F, Ryan has a hole in his underwear, what's that for - does he have a tail? HAHAHAHA". DD and friend are laughing their heads off at this - because they are serious... Then I tell them why there is a hole in the FRONT of the boxers - that shut them up for the rest of the day!

OMG that is just too much. I would have died laughing, like I'm about to now!

This weekend, we were in Va for a race, and there were these HUGE horse flies, and one apparently landed on my back, Trevor tells me, "mom, you better hold still cause one of them flying horses is on your back" :p

[CJ's Mom]

This isn't as cute as your little ones, but last weekend CJ and Haley were arguing. I had enough of it, broke them up. Haley was madder that all get out and as we were walking away from CJ she says, "He's such a dummy head!" In my tired and"yeah, whatever" voice i quietly say, "yeah, he's a dummy head." Still angry she popps off with, "Well THANKS for agreeing with me!"

[Emma'sDad]

Emma's been saying alot of funny things throughout the years. Alot of times I turn to DW and quietly whisper: "That's what SHE said!" Always good for a good chuckle. But, sometimes she overhears and says, "Yes, that's what I said!". That just doubles the laughter for us and she's left with a deer in the headlight look wondering why we're acting so silly. Someday, we'll have to let her into our inside joke... When she's 36.

Two stories:

1) I went one Sunday to the supermarket. Full of people, since it's only open until noon on Sundays. So I had to buy a few things, including hygienic pads:o. Ian tells his younger brother Alex 'Look, mommy is getting her diapers!' in the LOUDEST voice ever. The people looked at me and laughed. I wished there would have been a hole I could've crawled into. From this day on, he still refers to them as diapers.:eek:

2) Everytime I had to go to the bathroom, Ian (pre-Alex) would come with me (as you all have experienced with your own kids, I'm sure :rolleyes:). So, his thing was saying 'Bye-Bye' to the...well, you know, what you did in the toilet...so, there we were, side by side, waving 'Bye-bye' to the 'thing'. Now, how about that for bonding-time:D

[hurrayupmom]

A good friend of mine was getting ready to take a shower, her soon to be 4 yr old son came in and gave her in a screwed up look on his face this"OOO, mom, what happened to your body????" She looked at him and said "You did this" his reply. ""OH NO, I did not do that I love you. It was Alley." That is older sister. He makes us LOL all the time. He has a slight speech issue, can not say words that start with s. Replaces all s words with F. Needless to say he loves lollips but calls them by another name.

Last year we were driving in the car and Ciana (4 at the time) pulls out a big green booger our of her nose (sorry folks, this is not pretty!). She points the finger at me and yells, "eeewoooo Mommy, take it!!" Well, I am in the middle of the road driving at full speed limit, so I tell her without turning around that I could NOT take it because I was driving a car and that she would just have to wait till we got to the next traffic light. Next thing I hear is Mia (5 at the time) saying..."oh, just put it back in your nose!". LOLOLOLOL!!!


This weekend we were watching the Euro 2008 soccer championship and after the Switzerland game (which they won...wooohoo!!), they showed the highlights of the another match. The kids took a big interest and asked who was playing, to which I told them it was Turkey against the Czech Republic. Mia enthusiastically yells: "Oh I want the Turkeys to win!". Hahahahahah!!!!

Years ago when Justin was about 8 years old, I had just gotten home from being laid off at work only to find our clothes washer had broke down pouring water all over the floor and as I'm fixing that, I find out our water heater is leaking like crazy too. OK so I'm in a seriously bad mood but Justin, ever willing to help, pops his head in the door and says "is there anything I can do to help you dad?" and I said "Yeah, you can get me a life." Justin had an OH SH.. :eek: look on his face and quietly disappeared.

A bit later Sharon comes home and I can overhear her asking Justin where I was at and he said "dad's in the utility room fixing the washer AND I"M NOT GOING BACK IN THERE". As bad as my day was, I couldn't help but laugh.
