I completely love my children. They are so unbelievably funny! I just found a bunch of notes I had written of funny things I overheard them say. Here goes......
Nick: Mom, Ben's trying to bite me.
Ben: No. I'm not. I'm just tickling him with my teeth.
Ben: Nick is the WORST wiper EVER! I have poop in my pants.
When we first moved here, Chris and I desperately needed a little date. Without kids. So we took them to some random drop-in daycare. And they have never forgotten it. Probably two years later....
Ben: You dropping us off at the daycare or what?!
Nick: Olivia might find her true love at the daycare......he may be hovering around age five tho...
Olivia: YOU ARE TAKING ME TO DAYCARE????
Ben and I were teasing each other about our lunch choices and he said, "Mom, you are an awful woman."
Me: Ben, put that food in the sink.
Ben: It will clog it.
Me: Then put it in the garbage if you'd rather.
Ben: I would RATHER throw it at you......
Nick was bugging Olivia, and she told him to "GET OUT OF HERE!" He quickly responded
with, "I LIVE here......"
One of the cutest thing Ben says is "Wa-WA!" He means to say "Wa-La!" like a magician but never says it right.
The kids love "The Singing Cactus" restaurant, a Mexican place in town. It actually has a completely different name but they nicknamed it after the very entertaining singing cactus out front of the establishment. Why do they love it? "They have the BEST chicken nuggets and fries on earth!"
Ben copies a lot of commercials these days. Today he was asking, "Did anyone order a little kick butt?" from a Nickelodeon advertisement. The other day he was singing, "Nationwide is on your side....." all around the house.
While on a trash pick-up project for Cub Scouts, Ben came tearing out of the trees screaming, "Victory is MINE! I found a dollar bill!!" As he waved his hand widely, I noticed a zero. It was actually a $10! The big kids couldn't stand it.
And Ben could hardly stand to wait till the next day to spend it. When I asked him, "What are you going to buy? A game? A puzzle?" He responded with " A weapon."And a weapon it was, a big white noise-making gun that lights up and shakes. At first we couldn't find a price tag and Ben was chanting "Please my money, please my money" over and over. Then we saw it. Clearance price? $10. Ben let out a "Yes!" and a fist pump, and grabbed his new gun.
Ben: "MOM! MOM! Come quick! Get your phone! We gotta order this! Have you passed 18? Cuz you have to be 18 or older to order....."
