Funny Mommy

We were eating dinner tonight, hamburgers...grilled out (because I know you care). Zac looks at me and says,

"Mommy, you're funny."
Me: "Oh, I am?"
Zac: "Yeah... You're funny when you're stupid."


Fact: Usually, I correct my children when they say the word stupid...but in this case, I couldn't discipline because I was laughing too hard. What can I say?? Maybe I'll correct next time...

I see your hiney

Mady was singing to Zac and generally getting on his last nerve.

"I see your hiney! All white and shiney! If you don't hide it, I'm gonna bite it!"

Zac was getting angry, I could see his stork bite on his forehead starting to turn bright red. He shouted,

"It's not white and shiney!...And don't bite it!!!"

Bad Jokes

So, we've had a rough week. Sick grandparents in the hospital have made for round trips to Lawton both Saturday and Sunday. What we have found out is 4 hours per day spent in the car can make for some great entertainment.
The kids decided to make up their own jokes.

Mady was making up the jokes, Zac was occasionally throwing in his own punchline which was usually, "to go poop!" and both were laughing hysterically like it was the funniest joke they had ever heard in their entire life.

Here are some examples.
Read at your own risk...

Why did the tree cross the road?
Because he had to poop!

Why did the little boy get out of the car?
So he could pee pee.

Why did the dog go poop?
Because he had to pee pee.

Ok, so I can see that these are not funny. But, it was the combination of wondering what really bad joke was going to be spoken next and the hysterical laughter coming from the backseat that kept us laughing...

A-noy-ing!

I don't know why but Mady has one question she has to ask me every single day.
This morning it was before school as I was brushing her hair. She will ask me again several times before the day is over.
She will ask Zac too.
It will drive me crazy.

The question: "Mommy, are you a little boy?"

Why!!??! Why must she ask this question?!?

At first about 2 weeks ago when this started, I would play along.
Now, I'm just annoyed. I give her my "go away and quit asking me this ridiculous question" face.
She will say, "What? It's just a question."
Then she will proceed to say, "Well, are you a little girl?"

*sigh*...

An Honest Copy Cat

Zac: "What's that on the floor?"

Mady: "It's probably food."

Zac: "Yeah, it's pwobwy food."

Mady: "I'm telling you, I didn't do it."

Zac: "I'm telling you, I did do it!"
