Friday Funnies

Mr C was enjoying perusing a book this week entitled "The Living World". It had lots of information and photos/illustrations of all kinds of things. He really enjoyed the section on snakes - yikes! He then turned to "The Human Body" section. We saw lots of body parts but he really paused to look at a scan of the human heart. I thought he was going to say it was a heart shape but instead he pulled it close to his face and asked "Where's God in there?"
Funny and endearing, but lets me know he IS listening and learning even if it is a little confusing. I tried to briefly clear things up and even though he doesn't get it completely, he knows that I don't have a little living being running around in my heart.

Overheard at my house this week....

Mr. C put a hat backwards on a lego person and told Miss M "This guy is a CJ."

A what?

"You know....the guy who plays the music at weddings."

Oh yeah....a DJ!

This picture is not related to the post, but it was a fun time at Super Hero Night at Chick-fil-A!

Cheese balls are a rare occurrence in our household. So much in fact that Miss M decided to show me just how the treat makes her feel.....

 

Thankful it doesn't take much to make my kids smile these days.

While riding in the car with Cupcake Nana one day, Mr C told her to 

"Be very careful. There are old people driving out there."

This driver looks pretty scary to me!

OK....so it's a new year. I'll try to get back to more regular posting!

Today Mr. C showed me that he had a big hole in his sock. "Well, I guess you'll need to throw them out because it's pretty big and I don't think I can fix it."
His question to me was, "Not both of them. The other one is good so I will keep it."
Never mind that they are race car socks and he only has one pair.

Check back soon for a post about a Hot Wheels party for a pretty cool little boy who just turned F-I-V-E!!

Mr. C came running to find me the other day during his TV time. "I don't like this show. It's called the Balooney Tunes and it's kinda scary."

 Don't you love how little ears mishear things sometime?

Crazy Hair Night @ Awana..... not much else to say. (I am tired from being up too last with a certain baseball game last night so this is as good as it gets today!)

Also, Mr C wanted me to post this joke for you folks who live in an area like we do where jokes are expected on Halloween in exchange for candy.     

What did the tornado say to the car?  

Do you want to go for a spin?

A day late, but still had to post this picture.

I think this woman is trying to steal a pumpkin.

Mr C is trying to learn the song "Bible Book Bop" by the Go Fish Guys. He is convinced that the next to last book of the New Testament is "dude" - not Jude.

 Ever have one of those days?

FYI: I didn't put him in the carrier, but I did ask him to get back in so I could take a picture!

"Wow! This calculator is really good at math!" remarked my usually very smart sounding 2nd grader. I hate to admit it, but she is her mother's daughter.

Miss M is in love with Mad Libs. They are a good way to pass the time when we are stuck in traffic or traveling. I love that Mr C calls them "Mad Lips".

A MONTH since my last post? Where did August go? Wow....
Overheard at my house this week during dinner, at which we had broccoli.
Mr C: I hope there is not broccoli in heaven.

This picture really has nothing to do with the post, but here it is anyway!

Overheard in my car last week when my dad was visiting....Earlier in the day Miss M had been calling her brother "annoying". When he kicked Popa's seatback, Popa said "I agree with your statement. Sometimes he is annoying."
Mr C piped up "I am NOT annoying! I am cute!" Just another one of those things you shouldn't laugh at, but you can't help yourself.

A few days ago, I finally decided to upload the massive amount of pictures from my camera. While clicking through them, I wasn't sure what I was looking at:

 Give up? It's a sampling of Miss M's mad photography skills.

For some reason, my boy likes to say "Let's Eat" after our mealtime prayers. Every. Single. Time. So much in fact, that some of his buddies in Sunday School now say it too. I'm sure my moms friends are eternally grateful for that one. A few nights ago, after our bedtime prayer he looks up at me and without missing a beat says, "Let's sleep!" and then promptly starts fake snoring. Love that boy....

Poor puppy! Spring-like weather wore him out earlier this week. I'm sure there is a great caption for this picture, but I am too tired from a road trip with the kids to think of one!

Overheard at my house recently:
Miss M, as she is working on reviewing all her scripture memory for the Awana year: "Hey Daddy, let me quiz you now. Try James 2:10.
Dad:  I don't know...give me a hint.
Miss M: For whoever
Dad: I still don't know.
She then proceeded to do the same thing for a few more verses.
Finally, she said: Daddy, no wonder you are only allowed to work with Cubbies!

(The Awana portion for 3 and 4 year olds is Cubbies, which Daddy works with each week.)

What can I say? He was in need of a haircut. We were bored. He was willing to do a photo shoot. Not to worry...he got a trim two days later.

It's been almost a month since my last post....you'd think I was abducted by aliens or something! That would make for a more interesting explanation, but it's really been Miss M's play practice that has been cutting into my blogging time. She's doing a great job though and looking forward to the performance in about 1 week. Hopefully I can get back to regularly cleaning my house and blogging again after that!

So here's the Friday Funny for today, overheard at my house this week.
Miss M: What's for dinner?
me: brisket, green beans, roasted potatoes, and homemade bread
Miss M: Yeah! (then she runs off the bathroom to wash up for dinner. I hear her singing something about "Mama never lets us...." but I can't make out rest.)
Miss M, as she arrives at the table: What's this on my plate? MEAT?!?
me: Yes, I said we were having brisket.
Miss M: YUCK! I thought you said BISCUITS! I was singing about how you never let us eat a meal without meat or protein.

I haven't decided what her deal with meat is, but it would drive her dad nuts if she became a vegetarian.
