We're watching The Great Pumpkin and they just used Charlie Brown's head as the model for the pumpkin. DS2 (almost 4) said, "Maybe they're not nice to him because they think he's a piece of paper."
He can be a PITA, but at least he's pretty funny and cute.

Love it!
Not really a funny, but if we say a book title (to one of her books, obvs), she'll run and find it and carry it around proudly. She also thinks Daniel Tiger is a bear, so we'll read his book and she'll run to the TV and yell "Dan! Bear!"
In the middle of a birthday party yesterday, DS yelled loudly "When is the treasure hunt??" (There was one last year, but this year was a different party). Everyone started laughing! My friend said "I expect a treasure hunt at his party in two weeks." good thing she was joking, since his party us at a gymnastics place. No need to plan activities;)
C woke up from his nap today while H and I were busy carrying groceries in the house. When we didn't come to get him quickly enough he got out of bed and stood at his bedroom door knocking, waiting for us to come open it. It was adorable.

DD is too young to make funnies, but my sister told me today that my 7 year old nephew told her she should have another baby. She told him she wasn't having anymore kids, mostly because daddy didn't want more (lol), and he said "so what! Go get one when he isn't home!" She reminded him that he saw his little brother grow in her belly for a long time and he said "I know, so just go to the store and buy the stuff that makes the baby start growing in your belly". Nothing like pulling a fast one on dad!
We went out to lunch this afternoon. The kids meals come with ice cream for dessert. Since J is allergic to dairy they always give us a choice of sorbet.
Today he kept saying, "I had LOTS of scorbay at lunch today" lol. We kept asking him what he had for lunch just to hear him say it. We are evil parents/auntie.

Everyday when the kids go upstairs for nap/quiet time J runs up ahead of the girls. Their bedroom is straight ahead from the stairs so he runs up and closes their door. Then the girls get up and go to the door and knock for him to open it. He always opens the door with "oh hello babies, are you ready for nap time" ok babies come on in!" My office is right off to the side so I watch this happen almost every day and it cracks me up.

I usually only put Netflix on for L when I'm in the shower.
This morning at about 6:00, L was all in a tizzy and insistent that he wanted to go upstairs. We rarely hang out up there as it's just bedrooms and a bathroom. All his toys are on the main floor and in the basement. When he was saying "up", I thought he actually meant down so I took him to the basement. Cue big crocodile tears. I brought him back to the main floor and he said "up" again. Baffled, I took him upstairs. He then pointed to the shower and said, "There Mama. Pups" with a big smile on his face. The little booger was trying to get me to shower at 6:00 on a Sunday morning so he could watch Paw Patrol!

M always request we set a timer when we tell him he has x minutes before we do whatever. Lately, when the alarm goes off on our phone he starts singing along with it "doobie do bop bow.."

Dd can't really talk but is still funny. Her new thing is that everytime she is with a child her age (18 months), she tries to make out with them or something. I have no idea what she is doing but she gets right in their personal space and tries to hold/hug them. It's pretty funny but the other kids have no idea what she is doing.
She doesn't do it to anyone apart from kids her height.
Yesterday H and I were talking about a potential business opportunity and he made a said " If Mr Wonderful wouldn't invest in it, I won't. ". Jr follow up with " Daddy I think you are Mr. Wonderful. "
bananapancakes For the longest time the only time C got to watch tv was when I'd shower if we were home alone. I'd put on Daniel Tiger and tell him I was going to shower and be right back. To this day, any time I turn Daniel Tiger on for him he says, "Mommy shower?"
My DD told me today if she doesn't have a cake for her birthday it's going to be a disaster.
She's almost 4 and she has quite the potty mouth. She was looking for a bath toy and couldn't find it. She told me today: mom help me find said toy. I already looked in the f'ing bathroom and it wasn't there.
We had a nice conversation about not using that word.

We attended a wedding and DS was one of the few young kids there so I had a talk with him about appropriate behavior ahead of time. The groomsman did something funny as they were walking down the aisle and everyone laughed. DS got so upset and said, "Stop laughing. It's not funny! You are supposed to use your whisper voices!" He said it again during the speeches at the reception. Of course this made everyone around us laugh more.
