Kids say the funniest things #4

Upon receiving a poop emoji stuffed toy from his grandmother, my toddler said "It's a poop! Like the one I made!"

Made his week.

While waiting in line at the drive thru, my oldest son (Matthew) was telling Jon what he would like for lunch. Fries.

The toddler leans over, puts his hand on Matthews lap and says "Matty, you will never get fries." with this creepy, serious look on his face..

...What?

While we were out for a drive.

Jason: "You see dat house?" *Points to a two million dollar home*

"I would yike to live there. You could buy it for me."

Why? It had a snowman lawn ornament.

Patches vs. Spiderman

I always visit the pet store while I'm out, because adorable little creatures are fun to photograph and play with!

The staff is always so friendly and offering assistance, so I buy a cat toy each visit. Yes, she's got many now.. She even has her own toy box, but that is for another story.

Tonight, there was a new toy shipment. Handmade critters, stuffed with catnip. The proceeds were for a good cause, so why not!

As I dug around in the box trying to decide on a sheep, unicorn, or a fish... I discovered a spiderman! PATCHY NEEDS HER OWN SPIDERMAN! Yes! Whoever made these is so cool.

So I buy this spiderman and bring it home.

She loves it. She will throw him around, hug him while kicking him with her back feet.. and she gnaws on his face.
Poor spidey lost his feet in just the first night.

I try to take him (to throw for her, she loves when you throw her mice) but she throws her body down on top of him.. as if to say "No, mine!"

Spidey is well loved. ❤

Sleepless nights

A post I wrote three years ago, when we were living in Okotoks with my Mom.
Jason was just 18 months old, and Matty was 8.
Night time was always interesting:

"The upside to lying in bed late at night every night, unable to sleep, getting increasingly frustrated by the hour: You hear and see all of the weird things that go on at night.

The sound of snow crunching outside of my window. The first few times, I thought it was creepy. Turns out it's deer walking along the side of the house! It was so cool to see!

Jason randomly giggles in his sleep. Sometimes speaks a word or two of baby gibberish.
Sometimes he will sit up to talk and laugh hysterically.. in his completely dark room.. no night light, and it sometimes lasts for an hour. Creeps me out a little. He also moves in his sleep.. ALOT.

Matthew sleep walks. I've had to redirect him back to his room many times. I'll hear him walk up the stairs so I go ask where he is going. He says hes going to go find his mom.
He snores worse than I do.
And he doesn't just sleep talk.. he yells, and about the most random things. Ten minutes ago, I heard "I'll put the bag on. I'LL PUT THE BAG ON!".

Night time is always fun here."

Kids say the funniest things #3

Toddler at 11pm: "Me want chocolate! You always let me!"

Me: "I do not!"

Toddler: "But you can!"

Me: "Hey get the pillow case off of your head!"

Tot: "Mommy.. I just wanna be myself!"

Tot: "You can have this after dinner, Matty."

*Steals his big brothers book, and goes to his room.*

He likes to think he's the boss, sometimes.

Kids say the funniest things #2

When my oldest son was asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, he said "A stayer at home-er-er who watches TVer-er."

Me: "Good morning baby!"

Tot: "Me not a baby!"

Me: "My big boy?"

Tot: "No! Not big!"

Me: "Then what are you?"

Tot: "A Jason."

I went outside to clean up the patio a bit.

Tot: "Why u look sad outside?"

Me: "Not sad, sweetie. I was just cold. I don't like the cold."

Tot: "Did u whine about it?"

*Tells toddler to count to 10*

"One, two, three, minion, five, six, seven, eight, nine.. minion?"

Close enough.

Kids say the funniest things

Today, Jason (The four year old) told me "Mommy, I need to peeeeeeee!"

Now.. He's potty trained, so I said "So what would you like me to do?"

He says "Play yours video game... and say bad words."

Last week, I overheard this:

"Spider-Man would EAT Batman.

It's just what Spider-people do!"
