Jan. 23, 2009 - Zach's New Tie
I was trying to listen Zach talk to me, but I kept starring at his shirt. I narrowed my eyes on it. I asked him, "What is that Zach?" He then replied very confidently, and with his big grin, "a tie". He said he made it all by himself. The funny thing is if you know Zach then you know how funny it is because his main two requests for Christmas were Mighty World and tape (yep, tape). We wrapped six rolls of tape and he thought it was the best present ever. So, he was busy using his tape to make a tie.
Zach just got over pneumonia in his right lung. Dad rushed him to the hospital when we knew something was wrong. While his too high of temps had gone on too many days, he still was still filled with his unusual humor. The nurse asked him if he was allergic to anything. He said, very seriously, "yes, mud". "Mud? I bet your mom will be happy to hear that," replied the nurse. "Yes, I took a bath in mud and got a red spot on my leg (pointing to the inside of his thigh). Right here. That's how I know I am allergic to mud." My husband tried not to laugh too hard in Zach and had to turn away. I have no idea where he comes up with these ideas. He then proceeded to ask every nurse that dealt with him to scratch his back because it itched. Daddy said all but one did. Too funny. He is such an interesting kid.
Sep. 14, 2008 - Have you Heard these Funnies?
Here are some funnies from our home and elsewhere.
Our third son is constantly saying things that are too funny. He doesn't know he is funny because he is so serious. Sometimes he gets upset when we laugh. Here are a few from our home as of recent.
Zach was in the bathtub taking a bath with his toys. His three year old sister handed him the toys he requested, one at a time. He laid back with his arms behind his head onto the back of the tub. He turned to dad and said, "Aaah, this is the life".
Abbi will come into my room if I don't get up when the sun is up. If I tell her to go back to bed, she has many times said, "But you the MOM". I think she would get up at the same time the rooster gets up, if we had one.
We were in the bathroom of a gas station when Zach broke into song singing, "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus". When his sister started laughing, he scolded her. The old ladies outside the bathroom were laughing.
We were in the bathroom of a restaurant. Three year old Abbi went into the first stall and came out with her panties around her knees and said, "This one is too cold". She went into the next stall, coming out with her panties down still and said, "This one smells bad". She went into the third stall and said, "This one is just right". I don't know who was laughing harder her sister or the older women using the restroom.
Here are some other ones that I found:
HONESTY
My son Zachary,4,came screaming out of the bathroom to tell
me he'd dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. So I fished it
out and threw it in the garbage. Zachary stood there
thinking for a moment, then ran to my bathroom and came out
with my toothbrush. He held it up and said with a charming
little smile, "We better throw this one out too then, 'cause
it fell in the toilet a few days ago.
KETCHUP
A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup to come out of
the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her
4-year-old daughter to answer the phone. "It's the minister,
Mommy," the child said to her mother. Then she added,
"Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you right now.
She's hitting the bottle."
ELDERLY
While working for an organization that delivers lunches to
elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on
my afternoon rounds. The various appliances of old age,
particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs, unfailingly
intrigued her. One day I found her staring at a pair of
false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the
inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and
whispered, "The tooth fairy will never believe this!"
DRESS-UP
A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party.
When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, "Daddy,
you shouldn't wear that suit." "And why not, darling?" "You
know that it always gives you a headache the next morning."
SCHOOL
A little girl had just finished her first week of school.
"I'm just wasting my time," she said to her mother. "I can't
read, I can't write and they won't let me talk!"
BIBLE
A little boy opened the big family bible. He was fascinated
as he fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something
fell out of the Bible. He picked up the object and looked at
it. What he saw was an old leaf that had been pressed in
between the pages. "Mama, look what I found", the boy called
out." What have you got there, dear?" With astonishment in
the young boy's voice, he answered, "I think it's Adam's
underwear
Aug. 1, 2008 - Children are soo funny
I just love how God created children. They are so naturally funny. What a blessing they are! Here is a funny from the other day:
Zachary was admiring the sugar cookies that Sarah, older sister, just put on the baking stone. He looked at them and said, "Cookies I have an announcement. You are going to be eaten!" Sarah responded sadly with, "aahh". Then Zach continued to converse with the cookies, "I am sorry cookies, but you taste sooo good. You are made out of milk, eggs, and puddin (no puddin in cookies but an interesting ingredient to consider-he,he). You taste soo good." He said a few other funny things to the cookies. It was funny to watch him talk in such an animated way to the cookies before they went into the oven.
Oh, I need the Gingerbread story to read to him today. Isn't it strange that you can download the story from currclick? I hope I can get to the library tonight. It will be a fun story for him.

Jul. 2, 2008 - Some Funnies for Your Morning
Come join me this morning for some funnies that I was reading from Parents magazine. My daughters and I love to grab this magazine and page to the back where the Baby Bloopers are located. I especially like these:
My 3 year old son, David, was looking at pictures of my baby shower and asked why he wasn't in the photos. I explained that he hadn't been born yet and was still living inside my belly. Looking skeptical, he thought for a moment and asked, "Were there any toys in there?"
Our 4 year old daughter, Julia, was hungry before dinner and asked to eat a few Peeps for a snack. My wife reminded her that the sweets aren't nutritious and would spoil appetite. Julia remarked, "But Mom, they have chicken in them."
I was standing in line with my three year old daughter, Kiera, when she began to sing. She started to get a little too loud, so I asked her to please sing lower. She then crouched down to the floor and said, "But Mommy, I can't sing like this!"
My wife was driving with our two year old daughter, Ava, when traffic began to slow down. She saw a police car up ahead and mentioned that there must have been an accident. Ava strained to get a look and asked, "Did someone poop in the road?"
Last night my husband and I came home after an evening out. The babysitter had some funnies from our family that really made her laugh.
The babysitter read our five year old a story and then fell back on his bed with him. He said, "Do you want to live her forever with us?" She laughed and said, "yes". He said, "It's because of my pictures on my wall, isn't it? (referring to all his colorings he tore out of his coloring book and taped to his wall). He then said, "Yep, I know that you love my pictures so much that you want to live here forever with us." She laughed as she told us this.
**Here, is a another great funny from the daughter of Mom2my3's
Oct. 8, 2007 - Do you need to laugh?
While waiting for my children to finish piano lessons, I had fun reading some cute toddler bloopers. They really tickled me. I hope you enjoy them as well:
My husband's car needed to be serviced and we'd gotten the call that is was ready. I told my 2 year old son, Sean, that we had to go pick up daddy's car. He looked at me and asked, "with our hands?"
One morning my three year old daughter, Hannah, was watching em get dressed. She pointed to my chest and asked, "What are those?" I told her that they were something that she would have when she got older. She replied, "Oh! I can have those and coffee when I get bigger?"
I have three kids under five, so I drive a minivan to accommodate all the car seats. The 2 younger children set in the second row, and the oldest, Jack, sits in the third row. The other day we were checking out in the grocery store, and the kids were getting antsy. I said, "We're almost done, guys. Then we'll get in the car and drive home." Jack shouted, "Don't make me ride in the trunk again, Mommy?"
My husband, a minister, regularly gives sermons to inmates in prison. One evening when he had gone to preach, I took our three year old daughter. Summer, and I went to see a Disney on Ice Princess shows. When Aladdin got locked in jail for stealing. Summer yelled, excitedly, "Look Aladdin's in jail just like Daddy."
I was teaching my three year old son, Hunter, how his body digests food. I explained to him that after he eats his food, it comes out of his body when he goes to the bathroom. Later, when he emerged from teh bathroom, he said, "Hey that wasn't pizza!"
One afternoon I was giving my 4year old daughter, Grace, a bath when a tornado siren went off. We needed to get to the basement quickly, so I told Grace to get herself dressed while I grabbed some clothes for her baby brother. She frantically opened her drawer and cried out, "This is no time for underwear!"
My husband brought his boss home fro dinner one night. My four year old son, Joseph, really liked him and wanted him to spend the night. He even offered his toothbrush, pajamas, and bed. My husband's boss said, "I don't think your pajamas will fit me." Joseph replied, "That's okay. You can just sleep in your skin like my daddy does."
My three year old son was drinking orange juice with his grandma one morning when she decided to teach him how to do a toast. She tapped her cup to the side of his and said, "toast". He tapped his cup back and enthusiastically replied, "Bagels!"
I took my five year old son for his check up. The nurse asked him for a urine sample. I explained to my son that he would have to pee in the cup. He looked up at me and asked, "Don't they have a toilet?"
One day my husband and I were shopping. Although I breastfeed my newborn. I brought along a bottle because I am not comfortable nursing in public. When I pulled out the bottle, my four year old started waving her arms and shouted, "No mommy! You're supposed to give the baby your boobies."
**Thanks for the tip about the www.BigOven.com software. I love how I can, with the move of the mouse and a click, plan my week's menu with the in season veggies and fruits. I also love how the software organizes all my ingredients for a quick download on my palm pilot. What a great online software. Thanks, for sharing this with me, ladies.
**Have any of you attended a weekend to remember by Family Life (www.weekendtoremember.com )? It is an awesome couple worshop conference. It is awesome!!! My husband and I went to one and it was a real changing point in our marriage. I think they guarantee that if you marriage doesn't change for the better you get a refund. I can't wait to go again.
P.S. Has anyone found that they like Saxon second edition better than the third edition, or vice versa? The third edition is much thicker with at least a hundred more pages in it. I kind of like the thorough job of the third edition, but I don't know.....
P.S.S. I am so glad that I made you all smile. Here is the award from ArrowsInOurQuiver. Thanks for the gift.
Jul. 4, 2007 - Need to laugh?
Do you need to laugh? This is Abbi trying to make us laugh. I am not sure where she got the idea to do that with her face, but it makes us laugh.
*My four year old son was determined to plant the seeds from his apple in the back yard. Daddy went out to support him in his efforts. He then turned to daddy and told him to sit down "so that we can watch it grow", as he propped his hands under his chin and rested his elbows on his knees. (too funny).
*My son was afraid to get into the van last night to go to the airport to pick up daddy. He said, "No, the monsters are out there. They will peel my skin like a white potato." It was so funny. We tried not to laugh because he was very serious. What is the deal about his skin? I have no idea.
*My son wanted dad to do something. My husband was completing some paying of bills online and unable to meet his request. My son responded, "How much do you have to pay?" My husband, with his dry humor smiled and said, "a million dollars". My son unexpectedly said in a very exaggerated upset tone and hand motions with the shoulders going up and down, "oh, that will take all day". It made us laugh.
* My son was upset with baby Abbi. He said to dad, "She drwank my fushy". It was funny to hear him mispronounce slushy. Daddy was having a hard time understanding because he was laughing so hard.
*My daughter came up to me and said, "mom I am becomming just like you. I am spending a lot of time with the Lord reading my bible". It didn't make me laugh, but it brought warm fuzzies to my heart, and a smile on my face. When I feel like I am failing at this mommy job, I just reflect on those words she said this past weekend.
*Zachary prayed "Please help daddy get a new PINK car" (using an excited louder sound with the word PINK). Daddy said, "can we choose a different color?" All the children busted out laughing. Why pink (?).
*Zachary said to me, very excitedly, "Mommy, mommy, I am shrinking and growing." I tried to better understand by asking, "You shrink and grow? You mean that you are growing, not shrinking?"" No, he said, I shrink and I grow".
*The older daughter prayed, "Please put a million dollars in dad's bank account". Okay, that sounds good.
*My 4 year old son ran up to me very excited and said, "Daddy fixed the car it goes verrroooomm!" I wish you could have heard the verrrroooom. He did it with his lips and deep down voicing.
*My 8 year old son, very seriously, handed me and daddy a detailed picture of how to build a house. He then said, "If you build it like this, it'll take you about three to ten days (he,he...too funny).
*Daddy told Zach (4 yr. old) that he needed all his stuffed animals for a camera shoot the next day. Zach took all his stuffed animals, and throwing them down the second flight of stairs, yelled, "fire in the hole".
Zach told daddy, "You have to tell me the truth".
I laughed and inserted, "The truth about what, Zach?"
"If you are going to stay home tomorrow", said Zach.
I looked at my husband who was laughing. "Where does he get this stuff? I asked.
My husband giggling said, "I have no idea".
Zachary tried to turn off the lights when he went into the bathroom to visit daddy while daddy did business in the bathroom. Daddy said, "No Zachary, don't turn off the lights because then I can't see". Zachary said, "Yes, you can", as he turned off the lights. Then Zachary exclaimed, "No, you're right you can't see", as he turned them back on.
Zachary said, "I want to fly on a rocket to go into space, but it will cost me this much money (as he held up his fingers)".
*Have you been to Mrs. Steven's blog? She made me laugh until I cried. It really is funny. You will be really glad that you visited it.
PS Barnes and Noble have a reading program for children to earn a free book-what a great resource from Ruth's blog, Heart of God. Thanks, Ruth!
