Funny Friday - Apr 26

#1
I found Luke sitting on the potty and, for some reason, he wasn't wearing any clothes
Me: Are you naked?
Luke: No.
Me: You look naked to me.
Luke: I'm not naked. I'm wearing socks.
It's funnier when you picture us pronouncing it "nekkid" since we're Southern like that

#2
Me: Come on, Luke. Let's go water the plants.
Luke: OK, Mommy.
Me: Leave your sandwich inside. (By sandwich I meant the wooden sandwich he was playing with)
Luke: Bye bye, french toast. You stay there.

#3
Luke was getting frustrated because he couldn't pull up his pants the right way
Me: It's OK. You don't have to make it perfect. Just keep trying.
Luke: Perfect is best. I know that for a fact.

#4
Twinkle, twinkle little... hippopotamus.

Water Retention Blows

This time 3 years ago, I was nearing the end of my 2nd trimester and attending a bluegrass festival. As you may remember, I came home with the most disgustingly swollen feet I have ever seen. Good times.

Well, I am back again for another festival while hugely pregnant - apparently it's tradition - and, right on schedule, my ankles are starting to swell. I haven't even stepped foot on festival premises yet! It seems I will have Epsom salts and foot rubs in my near future. Sigh.

Funny Friday - Apr 19

I didn't blog last week because I was traveling for work so, a) I wasn't home to hear the funny and b) I didn't have time to write anything.

#1
Luke: Where's Daddy?
Me: He's working.
Luke: He's working on his beautiful project!
At the time Steven was working on installing an attic ladder which, while useful and well-done, isn't exactly beautiful.

#2
I want a whole bunch of spoons!
Not sure about this one...

#3
I met my 2 guys at a Mexican restaurant for dinner.
Oh, hey, Mommy. Do you want some chips? You can dip them in the cheese or salsa.

#4
Me: Do you need to go potty?
Luke: No.
Me: Are you sure?
Luke: I could say no to a face like that.

Funny Friday - Apr 5

#1
Luke was playing with a tightly stretched bungee cord
Luke: I strummed that string!
Me: What does it sound like?
Luke: A bass!
Me: That's right!
Luke: A bass sounds like a cello.

#2
enjoying a mini-golf family outing
Steven: Come on, Luke, pick up your golf stick.
Luke: No Daddy, it's a club.


#3
Nana: I could go home and get on the treadmill while I watch the Red Sox.
Luke: Watch the Red Sox? I didn't know all that.
This is especially funny because this is exactly the type of banal thing we say to him when he's babbling.

#4
Daddy says "good grief!" and Mommy says "aw, dang it!"
It's funny 'cause it's true.

#5
Daddy: Do you want a bubble bath?
Luke: No.
Me: How about a pudding bath?
Luke: No.
Daddy: Juice bath?
Luke: No.
Me: What kind of bath do you want?
Luke: A chocolate bath.
Me: Chocolate milk or regular chocolate?
Luke: Chocolate milk.
