I Used To Have A Brain: Random Read

Kids Say The Darndest Things!

Kids are hilarious and I'm lucky enough to have them cracking me up every single day, so how can I not share them with you! These are just some of the funny things they say.

Izzy, referring to her doll who was apparently very fashionable. "She's very stashinal."

Connor had drooled on Izzy's doctor kit, daycare boy told her, "you should put your dr. kit in your room." Izzy replies very casually, "That's ok, I don't care if he throws up on it."

Izzy told me today, "I'm 4 now." me: "Oh really, when did you turn 4?" Izzy: "I don't know, I just learned my ABC's."

While cleaning up the Elefun game after deciding she didn't want to play anymore, and while Connor was starting to get into the butterflies, Izzy tells him, "Consadurations Connor but you can't play this anymore. I can teach you how to play baseball though!"

Conversation between Izzy and daycare boy. Izzy, "Your froggy umbrella has big eyes!" daycare boy, "I know that Izzy, that's because I love him!"

While visiting my sister-in-law's new house, Mikayla started screaming bloody murder. Nana asked, "Do you have a sliver?" Mikayla while still screaming and sobbing, "No, I have a stick under my skin!!"

We had wild rice casserole for dinner, and Izzy decided to play with it for some reason, making a huge mess and getting it all over her hands. This was her prayer at the end of dinner, "Dear God, thank you for my food, thank you for my family, thank you for my friends, and thank you for being messy! Amen"

Mikayla was writing a story on the computer, and we had just talked about semicolons, when she announced to me that, "I think if I have a boy when I grow up I'll name him Colon, that sounds like a good name." Upon further discussion she decided that perhaps Collin was a better name for a little boy.

Izzy, while playing with little Beauty and the Beast figures: "I can show you the ways of being a normal person. Pick berries, read, wash your hands a lot... " all said with a British accent.

I asked the kids what they like to dream about, Izzy answered, "Princesses.... Meat.... My family....."

Last night we were at my cousins' house and they had a very large family picture framed and hung on the wall. Mikayla looked at it and casually said, "They must have taken that picture with a really big camera."

Daycare Boy after ghost hunting: "I wish I had a pet dinosaur made out of mud!" Because clearly only mud dinosaurs would protect him.

Connor trying to say the word "helicopter": "Bobbicocker"

Izzy randomly asks, "Why did God give us a head?"

Connor heard the outer door getting blown open by the wind and, startled, asks "Who's coming?". Like the good mom I am I say very surprised like, "Monsters are coming" and continues to stare. So I say, "Robots are coming!" Very seriously Connor tells me, "How about Care bears are coming!"

On the way to gymnastics we played a game, here's an excerpt:

Me - "Something I want you to do, it starts with an F, ends with an S, and has a C in the middle"

Mikayla - "Frapaccinos!!!" (intended word was Focus)

Me - "Something I want you to have... I want you to have__"

Izzy - "Babies!!!!" (intended word was FUN!)

Some random stuff

1. I don't like candy corn. I used to think it was a really weird thing to not like candy corn, until one October when Moose A. Moose on nick jr. sang a song called "I don't like candy corn" and I felt validated. By a cartoon moose.

2. Little Man is back in diapers. It was going really well for a few days, and then he stopped cooperating. And started peeing randomly a lot. So we'll try again soon.

3. I have a "Confessions of a Cookie Addict" post ready to be written up... but it's a bit embarrassing. Not that that has stopped me before!

4. I love the smell of autumn!

5. I need a full time housekeeper to keep up with my kids and daycare... and husband... and self.

6. My oldest daughter brought home math homework and I was at a loss for how to help her with one of the problems. Great.

7. Babydoll arriving at gymnastics class is like taking a little super ball and throwing it hard into a tiny room. Lots and lots of gleeful bouncing.

8. I'm a "tavern lady" for Halloween this year. I bought the costume several years ago but haven't actually gone out anywhere for Halloween in costume in a LONG time!

9. I could really use a new camera, one that the kids will not be allowed to touch.

I like candy corn but only a few. If third grade math is throwing you are in for a long haul. Tavern Lady/cookie addict. One doesn't seem to fit.
Can't wait to see the human superball in action.

I was a little stumped on "how many ways can you write 300?" It was 3 ways. "300" "three hundred" and then the last one was what got me, it was a picture of 3 squares that would supposedly be made up of 100 cubes each. Kind of a pointless way.
