I began jotting down things I hear from my boys 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!
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.
A: Mom, if I lived in a pile of garbage it wouldn’t bother me much cause I would build a little shack. It wouldn’t be much but it’d be all I got.
A: Mom, when you’re old and I am taking care of you and you wear diapers because you pee in your pants, that’s the only thing I won’t do. Change your diaper. Well, I’ll put a new one on you, but that’s all.
D:No purple minions on Sunday.
M to L: I should record your little funny voice. (hoarse)
A: He sounds like a germ. I know what germs sound like. I can hear them talking in me and he sounds like one.
L: Mom, I’ll give you a kiss if you don’t do what you did.
A: Dad, is he telling the truth?
D: Yes, he asked me.
L: No, I amn’t telling the truth. I’m telling Father.
A: Mom, I only remember one thing from when I was in your tummy and that’s every time you would feed me marshmallows I would throw them to the side in the hole of your intestines because I didn’t want to be chubby. Also, I would keep some of the food to make art with my tiny hands.
L: This isn’t mine, it’s Aiden’s.
M: No, see it has an L at the top. Aiden’s name doesn’t start with an L. Your does.
L: L isn’t my number. I didn’t turn L. I turned 3.
I am also happy to include my favorites from the comments on last month’s Mom of Boys post:
From Ila Pilon:
R our 5 year old (after having a blood draw and literally screaming like he was being forced to eat hot lava)…”Hey guess what L (older brother), I’m off the list.”
L: “What list?”
R: “The secret list at the doctor’s office.”
L: “What does that mean?”
R: “I never have to have another shot or anything ever again…you see…I now have special powers..”
L: “Whatever dude”
Another recent conversation….
R: “Mom, my nose is dripping oil”
Me: “What do you mean it is dripping oil?”
R: “You see, I’m Mater and when Mater gets sick he leaks oil and so I’m dripping oil from my nose”
From Jessica Jones:
Trenton: Can I use your computer to go on Ancestory.com?
Me: Why?
Trenton: Because I want to look up our family history and see if I come from a long line of talented drummers, like Dad.
Me: I guess. But you’d only be able to see Dad’s side because I’m adopted and don’t have any family history.
Trenton: That’s too bad. I bet you come from a long line of Asian bloggers.
Me: Why?
Trenton: Because I want to look up our family history and see if I come from a long line of talented drummers, like Dad.

From Kimberly Elliot:
After going to see my daughter’s high school musical Hello Dolly, we came out to the parking lot and I said, “I know your grandparents would have loved to have seen that.” My son pops off, “Yea, it was during their time period.” I laughed so hard, but never told my parents how old they were to my sons.
From scallboyz:
Logan: Hey Luke did you know I farted in the tub and it causes bubbles?
Luke: Yes Logan everyone knows farts cause bubbles.
Stop bothering me while I’m pooping.
(as he was sitting in the same bathroom as Logan was taking a bath)
Logan: Well did you know my butt hole vibrates when I fart?
Luke: Seriously Logan I think your lying?
Logan: No Luke hurry up pooping and I’ll prove it.
Me: BOYS-knock it off and finish up in here.
Luke: *whispering..Ok, Logan I’m done
Logan: You have to get close so squat down and look.
After a split second I realize what’s about to happen and I go running in there to see Logan bent over spreading his butt cheeks and Luke squattingdown about 3 inches from his butt.
Luke: I’m ready…let it rip!
Logan: “passing gas”
Luke: OH MY GOSH LOGAN- That was so awesome…your butthole did vibrate…can you do it again?
ME: THAT’S IT…OUT OF THE TUB YOU AND LUKE FINISH UP!
Luke: Yes Logan everyone knows farts cause bubbles.
Stop bothering me while I’m pooping.
