“So that is what I get to look forward to dayhiker.”

“Oh yeah, WK!”

“Lookin forward to it. She smiled at me the other day for the first time.”

“Yep, this is the tip of the iceburg”

“She smiled at me the other day for the first time.”

Melted Daddies heart too, didn't it?”

“Always does.”

“Just wait til she smiles and you know she's up to something.”

“THAT smaile doesn't take long to develop, DH! Laurel was giving us that "Guess what I just did" smile by age 1!”

“It's even better when your grandkids do it.


Ain't it grand!”

“My oldest was 4 1/2 when my sister chose to ignore the constant pleas for something she had answered no to more than once. My daughter got upset and said in her developing speech, "I know your ewers (ears) hewer (hear) what my lips are sayen!"

“Being the mother of boys, I have come to understand (sort of) their appreciation of the humor of bodily function noises.

We have a small dog named Copper.


The other day from the other room I hear Luke (4) say, "Copper, pull my finger."”

“LOL Ruby, I can picture it.

Somehow my daughter has learned to make herself burp, turns out her uncle was working with her on technique...”

“LOL Ruby, that's so funny.
Yupp...I can see it too. I love kids, they make me laugh most of the time.

Okay...still packing. see ya!”

“Very funny Sunshine and Ruby.

Did Copper help a brother out?”

“Copper is always obliging if it will produce a new disgusting smell. lol”

“Sunshine, Ruby, birch - too funny!
Thanks for posting.”

“Got another one for you all. My brother, Ben, has a 4-year-old son named Eli. The other night Ben and Eli were watching a program together on TV. They both left the room for a few minutes, and when they returned they realized that they had missed a critical moment in the program.

Eli: Dad, what happened?

Ben: I'm not sure since I missed it, too. But I think what happened was this (he explained the possible plot).

Eli: But Dad, what happened?

Ben: I just told you, Eli. I don't know for sure. I wasn't in the room either.

Eli: But Dad, what happened?

Ben: (exasperated) Eli, you know as much as I do.

Eli: I don't know as much as you do, Dad. You know how to spell cat.

Ben: (chuckles)

Eli: Wait a minute. (long pause) C - A - T. Whadya know? I can spell cat, too. I guess I do know as much as you do, Dad.”

“Thats great Ruby!”

“That's hilarious.

I knew that teenages knew more than their parents, but I didn't know 4 year old knew as much as their parents. My son is five. Dang, I was hoping it'd be a few more years before he's smarter than me.”

“LOL Ruby. That's cute! you got to write them all down and put 'em in a album.”

“and his 5 y/o went below to nap. About 10 minutes later as we tacked the boat and it heeled over from one side to the other, we heard loud thump as the kid fell out of the berth to the deck. Dad called down, "Are you all right?" The kid called back "Yeah . . . . . Dad?" "Yes, Son?"

"Dad, Newton was right."”

“That's funny, AJ!

I love kids.”

“Random stuff:

On the way to visit my folks we're going through a small town. Reece asked, "Is this a short town." The opposite of big is short, no?

Emma actually pointed her backside at me and said, "Daddy, I'm gonna spray a toot at you."

They both had some good ones last night, but I'm drawing a blank.”

“That's funny, DH!”

“This past weekend at the in-laws we had this exchange:

Emma is acting up.
Wife: Emma, calm it down girl, it's not all about you.
Emma: It IS all about me.
Dad in Law: Girl, you'd better calm it down.
Emma: Papa, it's not all about you, it's all about MEEEE.”

“At my girl's softball game on Wednesday, a bee kept flying around the woman on the bleachers next to us (my wife was there), so I made a comment about it to the woman. Some joke, don't remember what it was.

The woman's 4yo girl: "AAAARRRRRRRRRRR", a big growl right at me.

My wife and I: "Well, alrighty then."

Woman to her girl: "What did you do that for?"

4yo girl: "He's trying to marry you mommy!"

Obviously this 4yo kid thought I was hitting on her mom, and didn't like it. Too funny.”

“That's hilarious. Did she bare her teeth too?

Catty at 4, interesting!”

“Teeth, squinty eyes, the whole thing. A real gutteral animal-instinct growl. The only other time I heard one like that was the first time my older daughter met her younger sister.

The new baby was nursing, my older kid walks in (she was 2 at the time), sees the baby attached to Mom, and gave out this deep animal growl that truly almost raised the hairs on my neck. Looking back it's really funny, but at the time it surprized the hell out of me.”

“Just wait till they get older.


Youngest daughter: "Dad can I have $20"

Chili: "No"

YD: "Why not?"

Chili: "I don't have a 20 on me right now"

YD: "How much do you have?"

Chili: "I only have a couple bucks cash"

YD: "Can I have that?"

Chili: "If I give it to you will you quit asking for money for the next month?"

YD: "How about I don't ask again today?"”

“LOL”

“lol.
Well, Laurel already knows it's all about her.
I'm doomed.”

“Yesterday I asked, Emma, who's it all about? Reply, ME!!!!

Her dance recital is Sat night. It's called "Big and Loud". She's got the Loud part down pat.”

“Yeah Laurel has been a big fan of walking directly in front of the TV, blocking the view with huge smile and yelling/squeeking/screaming her head off for no particular reason and running away.

I guess it was noise time.

“My kids are all grown :(

I took my 19 yr old out to dinner for his birthday. He informed me that he was going to take his lip ring out and let it grow shut. ( I was sooo tickled) He said "I'm growing up...aren't you proud of me?" and I replied "Son, I was proud of you before"

This is the same kid who gave me a Bobbing Head Jack from "Nightmare Before Christmas" for Mother's Day. (he said it would look good on top of my computer with Gumby, Yoda, and a storm trooper....)


I love my kids......”

“DH, i've seen some of your TRs

“div - good answer.

saccoo - thanks. My son is alot like me. He's fairly serious in a lot of ways. My daugher is just miss one liner queen.”

“Youngest Daughter from upstairs: Moooooooommmmmmmmm!!!!

Dad (me): Stop yelling. What do you want?

YD: Do you look like mom?

snotty little thing. I wonder where they learn this stuff ;)”

“I'm babysitting from the office now. He's got Return of the Jedi cranked up in an extra office.

Look Daddy, it's the Dead Star. Dark Vadar is getting off that shuttle!”

“I asked my then young daughter, "What sound does a cow make?"
D, "Mooo"
"What sound does a dog make?"
D, "Woof"
"What sound does a cat make?"
D, "Mewo"
"What sound does a sheep make?"
D,"Baaaa"
"What sound does a rabbit make?"
D, "..................What's up Doc?"”

“Meant to share this earlier this morning but haven't had a chance. It made me smile at 6am ..maybe it will make your afternoon nice.

After getting up at 6am all I kept thinking was how bad i didn't want to come to work..how much I had to do..how I hated to go do it...yada yada yada. I went to wake my daughter, kk, and when she opened her eyes the first thing out of her mouth was "The sun is beautiful in the morning isn't it Mama?" She changed my whole day in that moment.”

“hey calette....u don't have IM?”

“been having computer issues at the office...forgot to turn it on...jumpin over there.”

“shessh....trying to reach you and completey forgot to read this.

Cute! kids can make your day! Or NOT! Depends :)”

“I think I tolerated "Dude" once. After the second time we had a spelling lesson: "D-A-D; that's me. D-U-D-E; that's not me. Let's not get those two mixed up again." LOL.

(damn, that is one huge bass....and a happy lookin' kid too---that grin's as big as the fish!)”
