Funny Things Kids Say...

The kids say THE funniest things on a daily basis.  I really want to start trying to write them all down. I usually do, in the form of a Facebook post, but let me try to recapture some of them from the past year or so...

10/13/2013:  Going down a bouncy house slide with Grant at the Seaside Festival in Yarmouth today, and I look down to find Grant's underwear on the floor! I check, and sure enough, they're his! Then he laughs and says, "Why does this keep happening???"  (This had happened the night before at Aunt Betty's house- someone has decided he is a "big boy" and should go to the bathroom all by himself!  Which is great, but apparently he needs a lesson in how to re-dress himself!)

9/29/2013:   Moral for today: Even if you have a huge fenced yard, you always need to keep an eye on 3-year-old little boys! Just found Grant outside with our neighbors trash bin emptied out, sitting in the middle of the pile of trash playing with his front loader.

7/20/2013:  This is a Natalie-ism:   Came into the house super frustrated that my watch stopped two times during my two minute double under drill and Natalie goes, "Quick! To calm you down, we need a banana and some almond butter!" Does she know me, or what!?!?

We also went through this phase in the spring and summer titled, "Questions From the Backseat."  We would get in the car, and the kids would start randomly asking the most absurd questions!

This one was from July 4, 2013:  Questions from the back seat (or... Questions from the Philadelphia airport): "What happens when you eat peanut butter crackers?" (From the allergic kid); "Why is Jabba the Hut so fat?" And "Is this a window?"

6/28/2013:   More questions from the backseat: "Is 5 really a number?" And "Are we there yet?" We are still in Natick, on the way to Wellfleet. It's gonna be a long trip.

6/22/2013:   Incessant questions from the backseat include, "What color is next to green?" "Mommy, do you have short sleeves?" and "Is that a loud noise?"

One more from Natalie - and remember:  When you least expect them to be listening to the radio, they are...  May 18: Natalie from the back seat: "I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold."  Oh boy!!!!

And last but not least, one from my husband, who is the ultimate funny guy (from May):

Me: Oh hey, Ray Manzarek died.
Todd: Who?
Me: You know, from The Doors!
Todd: Oh! I guess he broke on through to the other side!
