I began writing down things I hear around the house that I never thought I would hear because, well, they make me laugh. I hope you like them too because Mom of Boys is a series on the 3rd Sunday of each month. If you missed our first Mom of Boys posts be sure to go back!
Let’s explain how this will work and who things were said by…
A = my skinny, karate obsessed, nearly 6 year old
L = my spunky, snack loving, nearly 3 year old
J = my geeky chic husband
M = me aka mom of boys
This is in no way meant to be a parenting lesson. Just a little peek into our crazy and at times comical lives.
Mom of boys…things you never thought you’d hear in your home, then you birthed a boy.
M: I told you it would be hot. A: Like famous hot? M: No, like temperature hot. A: oh.
L: Santa is my favorite friend and poo poo doesn’t talk.
M: Do you want a cheeseburger? L: Yes, but no pickles or pomatoes. M: What are pomatoes? L: Red potatoes.
A: Zombies only have clothes and toothbrushes and toothpaste. M: Toothbrushes and toothpaste huh? A: Ya, so they can brush their teeth. M: Zombies brush their teeth? A: Ya, because if they didn’t they would lose all their teeth and they couldn’t eat our brains. L: And their breath would stink like brains.
A: A mustache is just hair growing out of your nose.
A: Mom, you know why I’ve been getting up so early? Because when I am married, I am going to sneak down and cook breakfast to surprise her.
A: My mom is a bunny. M: If your mom was a bunny you would be a bunny. A: Not if I was adopted.
M: What if I named you Jeb? A: I would hate my name.
*toot* M: Who was that? D: Me. M: Poor Aiden, it was pointed right at you. D: Sorry buddy. A: no biggy. I liked it. I like the sound of the pffrt.
I am also happy to include my favorites from the comments on last month’s Mom of Boys post:
Recently I had asked my two and half year old twins who did that? They simultaneously replies “Sissy.” Their sister was in school. – Theresa
“Mom, can I have a treat?” No you’ve already had a treat. “That wasn’t a treat, it was a snack!” – Dorothy Ellen
This past weekend we were at a drive-thru and the lady at the window asked him who made his reindeer hat. He didn’t answer so I asked him again. Through gritted teeth he said, “I am trying to make a stinky (poop)”. I cracked up and the lady at the window asked me what he said, then she bent double laughing. I think we made her day! – Tawnya
Have your kids made you laugh lately? What comical things have you said or overheard your kids say? Share in the comments and we will choose our favorites to share in our Mom of Boys post on January 19th.We have decided to truncate our feed to help protect against stolen content. I apologize for any inconvenience. Please love us anyway. 🙂
These are great! I literally laugh out loud reading each excerpt. Thanks for making me smile (and reminding me that it’s a boy thing).
Oh my gosh your boys are funny! So awesome that you’re documenting their funniness!
