This Little Boy...

...cracks us up!

Here he is with a worm he and his dad found while working in the yard. He thought it was the coolest. He's been very interested bugs and worms lately. This is what happens when you're outside working in the yard, or walking in the woods with dad. :)

But, he has been coming up with the funniest things lately. Here are some of his funnier incidents:

One morning after he got up, he wanted to see Sweet Pea who was still asleep in her bed, which is next to ours. So he climbed up on our bed and crawled over to where he could see her sleeping. He then looked at her and he tried to talk to her, but she wouldn't wake up, so he just looked at me and said, "Oh no mom! Her barreries boken. She not working. She new barreries!" He had decided since her eyes weren't opening her batteries must be broken, and she needed new ones. I just laughed and informed him babies don't have batteries, she was just sleeping. I had to call my mom and tell her this story.

A couple of Sundays ago, he found a Lady Bug outside. He brought it in and played with it for awhile, then took it back outside. After a bit he came back in and informed me he had squished the Lady Bug. I looked sad and told him that he had broken her and now she couldn't go back to her family. So, he thought for a minute, then started yelling as he ran to his toy closet, "Oh no mom! I get my tools. I fix her!" He repeated this many times getting his little toy tool box with his tools. He took them outside, but I'm not sure what he did. I think he got distracted. But it was funny that he thought he could fix her with his tools.

He loves to watch Word World on PBS, and one episode is about "Snug as a Bug in a Rug", teaching rhyming. Anyway, he had climbed up onto the bed again one morning to see his little Sweet Pea, and she was all wrapped up in her blanket, b/c I swaddle her at night. He just looked at her, then looked at me and said, "Mom...she snug as a bug in a rug." I laughed and said, "Yup, she is!"

Lately if we've been playing and he has to leave to get something, he'll yell..."Be wight back mom. Be wight back."

Another episode of Word World is about how duck is trying to go on vacation, but it's actually migration and he needs to find the letter "V". Anyway, after watching this episode he got his barn out that opens up, but closed it and walked around holding it like it was a suitcase and repeated over and over and over again, "I go on a 'cation mom. I go on 'cation. I need go on a 'cation. Uh oh...I need my "V" mom. Where's my "v"?" He seriously talked about going on a "'cation" forever! It took him saying it a couple of times for me to realize he was talking about a "vacation"...hence 'cation.

Lately when you ask him a question or ask him to do something sometimes he'll answer with, "Not xactly. Not xactly mom." Not sure where he got this, but it's too funny

The other morning I had cut up an apricot for him to eat with a fork, b/c he hates to get his hands sticky. But after trying a few times to stab a piece with his fork I hear, "Oh no mom! Iss no use! Iss no use mom. Iss not working." He couldn't pick up the apricot and was pretty distraught about it. :)

One day for lunch he wanted another apricot, so climbed up on a chair to get one off the counter. He grabbed one and was sitting on the chair looking at his apricot with a serious look. Then he looked at me and said while pointing at his apricot, "Look mom. Is his bum." I said whose bum? He responded, "Is the apricots bum mom." He was pointing to the line that goes down the apricot...and it really does look like a bum. Ya...I called Shayne and my mom to tell them this one. I laughed pretty good about it, and I had to agree with him.

The Tuia's had come down to visit and brought their camper trailer. He wanted to go in their trailer one morning. When I initially told him no and asked why he wanted to go in it, he responded, "I need go "All board" mom. I wanna go all board, mom!" I'm not sure where he got this (maybe from the one or two times he's watched Dinosaur Train on PBS??), but when he plays with his school bus or airplane with the little people toys, he always tells them..."All aboard!!" So, I guess he thought the camper trailer looked like a train and he needed to get all aboard! Kaye and I just kinda laughed and let him climb "All Aboard" their camper trailer.

A couple of other things he says just randomly, b/c he's not sure where to use them are: "There's no point!" (He got this from Tangled...when they're trapped in the rocks and the water is rising...Eugene tells Rapunzel "There's no point!") Or..."Just be patient! Just need be patient!" (Pretty sure he gets that from me telling him it OFTEN, b/c he's not a patient child.)

Ok...these are just a couple of his funny stories lately I wanted to write down. He is such a smart little boy and thinks about the funniest things. He obviously is very influenced by what he watches on tv, so we're going to have to be very careful about what he watches.

We love this little boy and the entertainment he provides for us. He is so funny and his little brain works in some incredible ways. He surprises us almost every day with something he says or does. He's such a good boy, and we love him lots and lots!!
