Funny things our LO's are saying/doing

Pokedot · October 2014

We haven't had one of these in a while. So what is something funny your LO has said or done lately?

Pokedot · October 2014

Yesterday DS and DH took me to lunch at a local sandwich shop/bakery. We picked out a cupcake to share for dessert last night. DSwouldn't touch a spec of his dinner (which has been the norm lately) so no cupcake sharing for him. Somehow in the 30 seconds I left the kitchen he got to the cupcake and took a huge bite of it then comes running into the living room with chocolate all over his face/hands yelling "More cake! More cake!"

Also when he doesn't like something he says he likes it. He loves broccoli and we had that for dinner last night. I asked him to take a bite and I get "I like it. I like it" but it was in a concerned tone of voice. It's hilarious.

I almost always drop the kids at daycare, but today, I had to take my car to the shop, so DH took them. When I was kissing DD goodbye she asked "Airplane?" I said, "No, I'm not going on an airplane." Then she said, "Run?" Apparently, she thinks every time I'm away from her it's for a business trip or a race, haha.

melody921 · October 2014

Here's another one from last night. I was preparing dinner and DD was dumping toys all over the living room then saying "Uh-oh." So I walked into the room and asked, "Who made this big mess? Was it Elmo?" She held up her Elmo doll and laughed and said no. But then she said, "Elmo, clean up" and proceeded to have Elmo pick up pieces of the puzzle and put them in the box, all the while repeating "Elmo clean up."

On Sunday I helped DS out of the car in a parking lot and asked him to hold my hand. As he reached up to take my hand he said " ok mama, I a busy boy". I almost lost it because it was so true!

He also gets his toys to help empty the bathtub.

If he doesn't want something he says "no thanks". How do you make a toddler do something they don't want to do when they are so polite about it?

DS is the same way. If he would have said "no thank you" about dinner he may have gotten a bite of the cupcake, maybe. He says "thank you" every time it's warranted without prompting. I'm totally impressed with it.

When we moved, I told Lily we were going to our new house. So now when we get home she says "new house", but the way she says it reminds me of a sports chant like WHOSE HOUSE but instead it's NEW HOUSE. Not sure if that even makes sense.

She's also been saying "MUAH kisses" a lot, especially when she thinks I'm upset about something. She used to say, "Happy girl?" if I was upset, but now it's "MUAH kisses"!

kdsmith43 · October 2014

They have a new rabbit in one of the rooms at school. His name is Thumper and I just love the way T says it. "Tumper mommy, Tumper!!".

Also, he uses excuse me regularly now. So, anything that's in his way "excuse me door, excuse me trucks".

We were over at my brother and SIL's house and couldn't find Sophia's beloved giraffe lovie when it was time to go. My SIL called up a little while later to say she had found it, so we told Sophia. Thus followed a conversation that went on over and over for about a half hour:

"Aunt Carla found giraffe lovie?? Aunt Carla TAKE giraffe lovie??"
"No Sophia, she didn't take it, we left it there and she found it- it was nice of her."
"Aunt Carla will take Big Girl Sippy too??"
"No, she won't take any of your things. She found your lovie. She'll give it back to you."
"Aunt Carla give giraffe lovie back. It will be ok. Sophia get it back."
"Yup"
"Sophia will give Aunt Carla high five. Sophia say thank you."

Bookelly · October 2014

Our convo last week...
Me: what did you do today?
Em: Daddy took me to the zoo and we saw animals!
Me: What was your favorite?
Em: Um, the kangaroo
Me: Awesome! Why do you like them?
Em: Because they're DELICIOUS!

Leo's class has a hamster named Betsy, she is up on a shelf so every morning I pick up the boys so they can say hi to her. This morning I said "Leo, come say good morning to Betsy". He ran over and did the I'm cold body shake/shiver saying "I'm scared of Betsy" but he had a huge smile on his face and giggled, so cute. Then said "Hold you so I can see Betsy". Love the Hold You phrase, James said that at this age too and I don't correct it because it is so cute to me.

tyrannasaurusjess · October 2014

Oh I love reading these threads!

A couple weeks ago, twice, Briar had diaper explosions when she woke from her nap, so she needed to go straight to the tub. Each time I apparently yelled up to H 'Tyler, I need your help', because now randomly Jasper will stand at the bottom of the stairs and yell 'TYWAH!!!! NEED HALP!'

We are recent wallykazam fans, and now every time Jasper is in a room by himself and one of us goes in, he yells INVADERS!

Annnnnd one more. I think my kid is funny.. We are working on left and right feet right now. He often brings me my slippers and says 'lemmmmme see right foot!' and try to put them on for me.

I completely agree! Grant has been saying similar things lately too. The best is when he knows he is bad, like he hits you, intentional or by accident (although intentional equals timeout) and he immediately says "sorry mamma" give you a hug with a pat on the back. Its almost cute enough to get you out of a time out, almost!

I posted this in the Christmas post too but his biggest obsession lately is hockey. Every night it's Hockey. He has to wear is hockey shirt over his jammies, which he puts on after a period of running around buck naked! its out of the bath, run around naked, then jammies. this seems to be the new bedtime routine - at least it tires him out a bit

and now he must hockey instead of an episode of Elmo which is what he use to watch before reading books before bed. Thank God I have center ice since I live in a different city than my hometown team, otherwise we would not have the availability of seeing games every night!

I love that too. I ask Lily if she wants to walk or if I should carry her and she says, Carry you.

hmp1 · October 2014

I'm sad that he isn't talking in third person as much as he used to. That is one of my favorite toddler traits.

DS used to say "Hold you!" DD doesn't do that. She just says, "Up."

melody921 · October 2014

DS is always asking about God, so last night we were on our way to swimming lessons and he asked something about how he could see God. I was trying to explain that while he can't see Him, he can see good things that are God's work. So he was asking if God notices all the things we do, and what he thinks, etc. Then a few minutes later he says, "Mommy, right now, I bet God is thinking you're really smart."

DD doesn't speak in third person at all--I kinda wish she did, lol!

Her NN is Nora, and she apparently thinks the end of the ABC song is about her. When we sing it, she hits the end and instead of "Now I know my ABCs" it's "Nora, Nora, ABC!"

When she wants me to repeat an activity (like make her doll do a funny dance or tickle her or whatever), she says, "Mama, try again?" Instead of just "again"--I need to try. I guess I need encouragement.

bosha711 · October 2014

One thing is that a whole ago, I showed the kids how to stick raspberries on their fingertips & so we'd wave our fingers saying, "hello, daaaarlinnng!"

So dd started addressing random people with a "hello, daaaarlinng!", which then somehow morphed into her saying things like, "hello, darling strawberry yogurt!" Or "hello darling strawberry icecream!"

She also has some really funny phrases, like, "oh yes, of course!", "thank you so SO MUCH!", "ummm, no, I don't think so!", and "right, mommy? RIGHT??"

BeebopandBuddy · October 2014

Lately, when Maya is being defiant, Ethan will look at us and say "Maya is not listening. Can't find listening ears."

Also, Maya is learning lots of different songs at school, so every dinner time has become a sing-along where Maya tries to teach us a song, then tells us we are doing it wrong. She loves to correct us. It's going to become a problem one day.

DS does the same thing.

Oh & also whenever eating blueberries, she will tell me her blueberry farted, thanks to the Mr. Sketch scented markers commercial lol.

One of the girls in James' class taught him "I'm So Fancy". I often catch him playing by himself singing "I'm so fancy from LA to Tokyo".

Jasper likes to wear Briar's headbands, and we tell him he looks fancy, so he usually walks around saying 'ooh Jasper is fancyyyyy'. Whenever that song is on, he MUST put a headband on!

DD does the same thing - apparently anyone who is upstairs is my husband's name and she'll just yell his name repeatedly from the bottom of the stairs. i didn't think i did that *that* much

elizabethwig · October 2014

right now, she thinks it's hilarious to yell 'a lion's coming, momma! LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!' and then run away. it's branched into ghosts, zombies and spiders all coming, too.

whenever i tell her it's time to stop doing something fun, she gets right up in my face and very seriously tell me 'no! five more mitnits!'

she named our new betta fish goldilocks

she has to give each bath toy a kiss when she's done in the bath

danabsd · October 2014

When Beb goes on the potty we celebrate, "Yay Aubrey peepee!" and other such encouragement.

The other weekend in a fairly crowded Macy's bathroom I took her in the stall with me to pee. When I finished she yelled at the top of her lungs "Yay mommy go peepee!". Now we celebrate mommys pees too.

Holly_1007 · October 2014

Colby has been singing a ton of songs lately. He thinks that spiders are called "it's bitsy" spiders. Whenever we talk about an animal he says the name and the sound it makes. He also has a small baby doll in his crib that he sleeps with. Sometimes when I put him to bed I hear him talking to the baby saying things like "it's ok baby, night night time now" "don't cry baby". It is so sweet.

AKB090609 · October 2014

DD learned 'where are you' last week at the raspberry patch, so she's been running around yelling "Daisy/mommy/daddy, where aaaaarrrrrrrr you?"

Today DD2 was doing a study at the university and DD1 was playing in a different room, I walked in to get her and she said "you leave, I stay with strangers"

Also super cute is when ever DD2 drools she makes bubbles so DD1 starts singing 'bub bub bub, bub pop' and pops all the bubbles.

CdnFarmGirl08 · October 2014

DS talks about himself in third person. I ask him what he wants and he says "Nathan wants milk." He sees a picture of himself and asks "What Nathan doing?"

He always yells DHs name after I call him or talk to him.

It's so cute. I love him.

linzeek44 · October 2014

In my totally biased opinion, ERy is hilarious.

He farted and then announced "Mommy farted." We were the only ones home so it fooled no one.

"Already" is his latest phrase. Last night I said he needed to sleep by himself and I was going to clean. He said, "No mommy. Cleaning lady already do that." When he needed ice on his head, he refused because he "already do that."

linzeek44 · October 2014

DH was on a business trip this week so E and I enjoyed time magazine without him. He really liked the photo of the dude in the Ebola protection suit. I told him he wore the special suit so he didn't get Ebola germs on his body.

DH and E are at home today and they were reading it. DH said that the man wore the suit so he didn't get sick. E told him "doesn't get Ebola."

DH had no idea how e knew that and it was hilarious.

amandad715 · October 2014

@mnkate‌ Hard to top that PECKAH story!

We always talk about our days at dinner each night. Will tells us fake things and them will automatically correct himself bc he knows it's wrong. On Tuesday, he excitedly said, "we go to Culver's and get ice cream!!"
Me, "you got ice cream at Culver's!?"
Will realizing he was incorrect, shook his head very seriously no and said, "No. We not get ice cream. We get fresh fries."

Last night Maya was sitting with DH and he was on his phone looking at FB. She saw a picture of Barack Obama and asked DH who it was. He told her his name and that he's the President of the United States. She burst out laughing and said "That's a funny name, he is such a funny man". She chuckled about it for a few minutes. I think we are going to have to work on her filter.

kelbel527 · October 2014

I love the phase where they're learning new words everyday. It's always a surprise what they'll come up with next!

We were dancing to Halloween songs the other night while DH was making dinner. All of a sudden, DH plays 5 little pumpkins and Aedan runs over to the kitchen yelling "pumpkin song!" Then he starts yelling our random words from the song in all the wrong places, while shaking his butt to the music. It was too cute.

Dd has started fake sleeping throughout the day. She says 'night night, sleep tight' and then do a fake snore with her eyes wide open. It's so cute!

tinyhumantoe · October 2014

Winnie says, "OK EVERYBODY, WHO FARTED?" if she smells something stinky. Eek!

Flamingemu · October 2014

L walks into a room and says 'Hi, guys!' like she owns the place. Then she model stomps in shkong her butt. I die laughing every time.

PenelopePond · October 2014

If I tell Sean something or correct him he repeats what I say and then adds right. So he said "Esan's at school. Riiiigggghhht." He does it all the time. Super cute.

He calls nap time "tap time". "No tap time. Sean not sleepy."

He talks in the third person all the time.
