Funnies

The kids say a thousand funny things a day that I always think I'll remember, but at the end of the day, I never do. So, I'm trying to start recording the ones I do remember. And I'm hoping to get some updated pictures up very soon as well.

Jude:
He loves to say what things are and what things are not (ex: I said we were going to get in the car the other day. He said, "This is not a car. This a van".) My favorite was when we were out on a walk and someone made a comment about our triple stroller looking like a bus. Jude said, "This is not a bus. This a black stroller."

Jude loves to make up words and then ask himself why he's saying them. "Why's Jude saying "... (fill in the blank with a made-up word)"?

Jude also likes to ask why he's playing with different things. "Why's Jude playing with kitchen, Daddy?" "Why's Jude playing with scooper?"

I'm often "on" Jude about his table behavior. The other day, I told him not to wave his fork in the air. He said, "Only airplanes go in air". Yes, Jude, that's right. Now please listen to yourself.

Jude brings me things from the carpet all the time (a fuzzy, a hair, a crumb) and yells, "A piece! A piece!" every time. One time it was a piece of poop. I nearly died.

Jude climbed in the oven of the play kitchen recently and then said, "What's Jude doing in the oven?" I don't know Jude. You tell me.

I asked him what he wanted for his birthday. He said, "A cupcake." I said,  "Do you want any new toys or clothes?" He said,  "No just a cupcake with peanut butter on it (frosting)". Easy to please!

Hazel:
The other day, Hazel was standing on her Tiny Bear Bible and said, "Look Mommy! Hazel standing on the Tiny Jesus Bear!"

When I asked her if it was okay to not listen to mommy, she replied, "That's very naughty naughty."

"Where's Daddy? Hazel LOVE Daddy." upon waking up in the morning.

When she carries her baby around, she is often saying, "Oh honey honey honey. Oh baby."

I asked her a few weeks ago if I was cool or weird. She said, "Mommy weird. Hazel cool." Later she added, "Daddy and Nona cool too. Jude weird."

Hazel came walking out of the bathroom recently and said, "Hazel looking good."

Nona was chewing on a shoe and Hazel looked at me and said, "That might be a shoe, not a snack."

She uses the words might and maybe a lot. She often says, "That might be neat." or "That might be nice." or "Maybe that might be fun." It's almost always hilarious the way she says it.

She was singing "This old man" recently and I heard her sing, "This old man, he played one, he played nick paddy on my bun". Ha! I have to catch these things very sneakily because she won't sing if I'm around. In fact, if I walk in the room, she immediately stops or says, "No mommy listen. No mommy come in this room. Mommy get out."

Anything that happened in the past is "last night" according to Hazel.

Nona:

Every meal time involves Nona running to the table yelling, "Lunch, lunch!"

She says "Hewwo Daddy. Buh-bye Daddy." about a million times a day.

Whenever she pushes her baby stroller around, she says, "Choo-choo! Choo-choo!"

At the table, she often asks for more milk by saying, "more nook". Then Jude says, "Why's Nona saying nook?" and then laughs his head off.
