It's the Little Things That Make Me Laugh Sometimes

1. We told Mica to brush his teeth in the kitchen because Isaak was in the bathroom. We only have 1 bathroom.
   
   Mica said, "I can't use that sink water. It's not filtered. Gross!"
   
   He thought this whole time that the bathroom has filtered water!
   
   Then he attempted to put his toothbrush under the filtered water spout on the refrigerator. It's a good thing I stopped him. Boy that would be a mess!
   
   How is it this kid is so smart, yet so not smart at the same time? Even Isaak was shaking his head.
   


2. Travis went to cut his hair. The blade he was using wasn't working out the way he planned. So he buzzed it.
   
   The problem is that he has one white spot in the front of his hair, so he looks very bald right there, or like he really messed up with the trimmers.
   
   
   
   
   
3. At work someone gave this odd creepy clown for the White Elephant Gift. No worries there was a $20 Target GC it was holding. The winner didn't want the clown, so I stuck it on a student's desk that loves hates clowns.
   
   
   
   
   
4. My older sister can be a bit of a control freak at times. I'm surprised I haven't gotten in any fights with her in the last year.
   
   We were running through the list of things to bring to the Christmas Eve Feast. They want Travis to bring a soup, and me to make a veggie tray.
   
   My sister, "Don't put any green peppers on there. No one eats them. We could practically have a veggie tray that's nothing, but carrots and celery."
   
   My other sister, "Throw olives on there. My boys like those."
   
   I was complaining to Travis about how picky they were being, and said, "I never even put green peppers on a veggie tray. I like red, yellow, and orange peppers." He said, "Make a veggie tray that's only green peppers. Have the real veggie tray in the car."
   
   So...I'm making a prank veggie tray with only green peppers and olives just because I'm an asshole a prankster. LOL
   
   
   
5. At work a co-worker said she wouldn't eat hummus because it rhymes with pumice. For my White Elephant gift I gave a pumice stone, hummus and lots of pita crackers.
   
   I don't think the hummus got eaten. It's a shame because hummus is good! 

Tell me something that has made you laugh lately. 

Random Tid Bits

This week the random tid bits are going to just be funny things my boys have said lately. If you are friends with me on facebook you may have heard some of these before. A few are new though.

1. Isaak is addicted to wearing only his red button top and pants pjs. He has a whole drawer full of other options, but only wants to wear those. He knows once he's too big for them Mica has a pair that he can wear. He's happy about that.
   
   Isaak: "These pjs don't fit me Mom!" Me: "Yes they do. Just put them on, and go to bed!" Isaak: "I can't get my head through the hole. They don't fit me Mom!" Me: "Isaak you are trying to stick your head through an arm hole. Of course your head doesn't fit." Isaak: "Stop laughing at me Mom!"


2. Mica: "Mom I want to watch that backwards video on YouTube." Me: "Oh the Coldplay song?" Mica: "Ya that one. All you have to do is type in, 'backwards' on YouTube and it will come up." Me: "I don't think so Mica. There are a lot of videos that would come up for, 'backwards'."


3. Mica just loves kicking all his covers to the bottom of his bed. Me being the Mom in the house hates it. I know I need to pick my battles, but come on does he have to do that every night? I had him help me wash his bedding, then help me make his bed.
   
   It was time to put on the comforter and I said, "Just make sure the tag is on the bottom of the bed." He said, "I know! One time I had the tag on the top, and that was disturbing!" He sure has a way with describing things. 


4. This isn't something any kid said that was funny, it was more about what Mica did. We were at Bed Bath and Beyond. We just walked in the door, and Mica was slow moving. I looked back, and there he was dancing for their camera. He does this often. He lifted up his shirt and was belly dancing, or something. I didn't know weather to scold him, laugh, or take a picture. I scolded him, and then took a photo. This is the aftermath of him being a silly kid. Part of me did think it was funny. What would you do?





5. Isaak got done with a bath. He was drying off and yelled out, "Mom if I died right now, they would have to dry me off at the cemetery before they put me in the ground. Wouldn't that be funny?" I said, "More like disturbing." Isaak said, "What's disturbing mean?" I said, "Just dry yourself off, Isaak."

WW: Second Week of School {Linky}

I wasn't worried about Mica starting second grade. I knew he'd love it. He has enjoyed it; regardless if many of his friends are in the other class. He's happy to be able to play with them at recess. I told him that when he's in the classroom, that's where his ears need to be turned on anyhow. Since he just turned eight, he got to take treats to school on the second day.

Isaak on the other hand started out wanting to be 4 again; he longed to go back to preschool. Isaak's now on week 2 of school. He's loving it. In fact when I went to pick the boys up on Thursday and Friday Isaak cried because he was A) Tired and B) Didn't want to leave to come home.

Funny things Isaak's said: 

Isaak said on the first day he had an awful day with a smile on his face. He dropped a penny he found at recess in a crack, and was unable to retrieve it. Then he dropped one of his chocolate covered berries on the ground at lunch time. But...he had all good things to say about class. He was snapping all evening to. Yet another sign of happiness. He's really into snapping once again. I say that because he learned how to snap last year. Snapping is making its comeback.

He said in the car, "Mom I knew I had EP today, but I didn't know I'd actually have to do it." I was thinking, What in the heck is EP? Mica piped in and said, "You mean P.E.!" Isaak said, "Ya that!" That gave Mica and I a good chuckle.

Isaak's bummed that art is only once a week. He said, "Mom I'm sad about that!" I said, "Ya that's too bad I like art to."

I asked Isaak if he has any friends yet? He said, "Ya, but I don't know their names. One has white teeth and the other one has gold teeth." My Kindergartener is profiling people by their teeth color.

Have kids started back at school in the area where you live?

Things That Make Me LOL

Do you ever have photos that just make you laugh and laugh? 

Take this bunny for an example:

He's either: 

A) Very sad that he is better at walking than hopping.
B) Drunk.
C) Has to pee (according to Theresa at Theresa's Mixed Nuts on Facebook.
D) Depressed.
E) Tired.
F) Sick of being in that heavy suit.
G) Has very bad posture.

This also makes me laugh every time I see it:

That's the headband that Mica cried about not wanting to wear. We were given 4 of them at the Y for a game. Mica said it looked ridiculous. He threw it on the ground. I picked it up and wore two of them. Daddy said, "It doesn't look ridiculous! See I'm wearing it." Doesn't he look flat out ridiculous? I made him put it on on St. Patty's Day just to get a picture. Then he could see how he looked. I laugh every time I see it. Mica even got a good laugh when he saw Daddy make this face. At least it turned tears into laughter.

Bathroom Faux Pas

If you don't like bathroom stories about kids don't read this.

If you want a good laugh, read it.

Grandpa Spiehs picked the boys up from preschool one day this week. He got Cousin Elijah and Isaak in the car. They were in their car seats and buckled. 

Isaak said: I have to go poop!

Grandpa said: Can it wait until we get home, or do you have to go now?

Isaak said: I have to go now!

Out the boys go. Back into the church. 

A church lady was coming out and said: Oh did you guys forget something?

Elijah said while throwing his arms in the air: Isaak has to poop!

In the bathroom they went. Isaak was in the stall, while Grandpa and Elijah were in the bathroom waiting.

Isaak cried frantically because he thought Grandpa left him. 

When he was done Grandpa wiped him. It was a messy one. He needed help.

Grandpa went to wash his hands right away. 

Elijah was holding the door open and said: Come on Isaak I want to get out of here. 

Isaak (with his pants not pulled up) hops out of the bathroom.

Grandpa went out of the bathroom to escort the 1/2 naked boy back in to pull his pants up. 

Isaak and Elijah were now outside the bathroom and Grandpa still had to finish washing his hands. 

Isaak cried frantically once again about Grandpa leaving him. 

I think they drew enough attention, don't you?

I hope no one got a peep show.

Boys!

The Cosby Show

Who watched the Cosby Show?

Source

I did. So much so that I wanted my boys to see it. I bought their best hits on DVD. Mica cracks up when he watches it. Proof that it's timeless.

We were sitting around the dinner table. Daddy was talking all big. Meaning deeper than what the boys could understand. Isaak kept interrupting him. He went napless and was kind of being a punk. Daddy was getting frustrated. Mica sort of shook his head up and down like he understood what Daddy was talking about. I knew he didn't.

I leaned over to Mica and whispered: Daddy's a nerd.

Mica said loudly: Mommy said you are a nerd.

I said: I nerd that we love so much.

Mica started cracking up, which lead us all to laugh.

Then Mica said: Our family is so funny! We're like the Cosby Show, only we're white.

Kids!

The Funny Stuff They Say

Tooth Fairy

Mica lost a tooth on Thursday. He decided he'd write her a letter. It went something like this:

October 25.

Dear Tooth Fairy,

Please give me a lot of money, so I can buy a lot of toys.

Thank you,

Your Friend  

In the car the next day I said: Mica what did your letter to the Tooth Fairy say? 

Mica rattled off his letter.

I said: More money doesn't always equal more toys. There are some toys that are really expensive and some toys that are not. You could get one really nice expensive toy or five really inexpensive toys. 

Mica said: Oh.

  Markers

Isaak said: Mom why won't you let me have those markers sitting on your night stand?

I said: Because the last time you got a hold of markers you drew on our wood floor! No more markers for you, unless they are washable.

Isaak said: Well I won't do that this time.

I said: Sorry, but the answer is, 'No'. Plus all those markers are mine. 

Isaak said: Uggg!

     

Runny Like Snot

Isaak was in Mica's space. Annoying him like he usually does. I tried distracting him. 

I said: Isaak I need your help in the kitchen. I need someone to stir this! 

Isaak said: Ok I'm coming. I love to stir things! Pause Why am I stirring this Mom?   

I said: Well it's too runny. I have to make it thicken up with four.

Isaak said: Oh kind of like my snot gets too runny.

I said: Sort of like that. Next time your snot is runny maybe we should try rubbing flour on it. Laughing out loud! Pause. I'm only kidding of course.

   

 Mango Juice

Isaak said: Mom where does does mango juice come from?
I said: It comes from Mangos.
Isaak said: Oh...the thing that stands on one leg.
Daddy looked strangely over to Isaak and I.
I said: He's thinking of Flamingos I believe. Pause. I decided to work with Isaak's thought that Mangos stand on one leg. Yep Mangos pee out Mango Juice. What color are Mangos Isaak? I thought he'd answer, "Pink".
Isaak said: They are lellow yellow.
I said: Are you sure they aren't pink?
Isaak said: Yes I'm sure they are lellow yellow.
I said: They actually come from a fruit that is green on the outside and yellow on the inside.

I wonder if he envisions a yellow Flamingo that makes mango juice?

Funnies

Mica was watching The Brady Bunch, while I was outside with Isaak taking care of leaves. 

When I got inside I said, "So Mica are you still watching The Brady Bunch? 

Mica said, "No. Some show for old people is on."

I said, "How do you know it's for old people?"

Mica said, "It's in black and white."

Now that Mica knows how to read, he picks up on things he didn't notice before. 

We go out to eat some times. Just not a lot.

Mica said while I was driving, "Mom why don't we have Godfather's Pizza?"

I said, "I don't know. Maybe sometime we should. It's kind of greasy though."

Mica said, "I want some so bad!"

I thought that was the end of our conversation.

Later down the street we pass a Sonic.

Mica said, "I really want Sonic! We really  need to go there sometime!"

I said, "Sure sometime."

The drawback of Mica learning to read.

Hookers

I was in taking a shower. Isaak decided to hang some stuff on the bathroom door.

After I was done I heard him say, "There are all my hookers." Daddy said, "What Isaak?" Isaak said, "Daddy I said, 'There are all my hookers!'"

Here are Isaak's hookers:

Funny Things the Kids Said and Did Today

Isaak said, "Hey Momma watch me!" Me, "Ok I'm watching." ;) He jumps up, goes to kick a ball, misses and falls on his butt. LOL He wasn't hurt.

Isaak's said, "Hey look at my sculpture!" It was a Duplo construction. He had about 7 of his sculptures throughout the house that I was supposed to look at, at different times throughout the day.

Mica made me watch him put together a Lego RC car from Toy Story 2. His instructions, "Mommy you can't look at anything else while I'm showing you how to put this together." I'd try and hand him a piece he needed and he'd say, "Mommy I've got this! I'm an expert at putting this together!"

Mica said, "I just want to make a really old train track. Like one that was from the late 2800's." That had Daddy and I both laughing. :)
