Funny Things Thursday

[Deleted]

I'm sick so in an effort to cheer me up, tell us something funny that's happened to you lately!

[Deleted]

I'll start. So I was sleep deprived on FB last week and l my friend commented that her dog was a local celebrity because he was being featured in their local dog magazine. I commented something like ' congrats! Isn't this the second time your dog achieved fame? Wasn't he mentioned in doggy airline magazine? A week later I realized I left that comment on a friend's newborn hospital photo. The parents liked the comment and a few other people so they must think I'm crazy!

This was a couple weeks ago but it's all I can think of. I was out shopping with a fellow mom and this other woman comes up to us in the store and strikes up a conversation. It starts to be quite long about general mommy stuff and she seemed to know my friend so I kind of wander away so they can visit. Later on in my car my friend gives me crap for "abandoning her" with the strange woman. Turns out she was just some random lady.

Ha! So, this morning, DS woke up and I see that he has his mittens on (he's 3, don't judge me) and he asks for cereal and milk (separately, of course, since he's 3-again-no juding). I go about making a bottle for S and I hear, "Uh oh, Mommy!" Without looking, I say, "What's wrong buddy?" and he goes, "Mommy, I don't think this is a good idea." When I looked in the living room, he's sitting on the couch with his mittens on trying to eat his cereal, but he can't grab it with his mittens. I laughed for a good 5 minutes with him about that one.

Ha. Totally something DS would do too.

Yesterday when I was changing DS after he woke up, I commented on how heavy his diaper was, and that he peed a lot overnight (we typically don't do overnight diaper changes with suspicion of poop). On cue, he hosed me for the first time in months. Like, pants completely soaked. The pants I just picked up from the dry cleaners. DH came in, and when I explained what happened, he gave baby a high-five.

I don't know if this is one of those 'had to be there moments' but I'll try my best to describe it.

DS is 'dabbling' (lol) in the art of potty training, so it's a lot of sitting beside him and visiting.

The other day he was sitting there and DD was doing her baby thing wandering up the hallway just 'talking' to herself and stopping to chew on toys and stuff. We couldn't see her, but we could hear her. When you could tell she got close to the bathroom door she suddenly got silent. DS, on the potty, gets a huge smile on his face and goes 'uh ohhh!' And all of a sudden little baby hand comes slamming down in front of the door, and she slowly peeks her head into the door and smiles at us. DS started laughing so hard his whole face turned red which in turn made me laugh so hard I was crying. It was the most random thing but I swear it's like they had it all coordinated to trick me and the cuteness overload was too much!

I was about to take a shower with DD (2.5) the other night. She got herself undressed and i was down to my undies, I bent over to pick something up and all the sudden DD comes running by me and smacks my dangling boob and yells "millllllks"

I went about my business with a chuckle but my DH was about crying he was laughing so hard

These are so good! We should do a funny thread every week!

DH, B, and I were all hanging out on the floor the other night. DH and I were both sitting with our legs in a "v" and the bottoms of our feet were touching. B was sitting in front of me with his legs in a V too, and we were rolling a ball back and forth. At some point, B realized DH's foot was nearby and started going to town trying to pull his sock off (he enjoys pulling his own socks off). He worked on it for a few minutes and finally got it off. When he did, he immediately dove for DH's big toe- trying to put it in his mouth like he does with his own toes! We were dying laughing trying to pull him off- he wanted to put that toe in his mouth so badly!

Oops! Double post! Sorry!

This thread is the best ever!

This is a message my sister sent about my nephew who is 4:

He wanted to wear the bow tie you got him to school and put it in his pocket, but I took it out because he was wearing a tshirt. Then when we got to school, his teacher said hi to him. He yelled "No! No! Don't look at me! I'm almost handsome" while searching his pockets for his bow tie. I had to tell him I took his bow tie out of his pocket and he didn't have it anymore. He cried. And me and his teacher had to convince him that he's handsome without a bow tie

LBB is going through a button-up shirt only phase right now.  And every morning he tells me "look how fancy I look!"

Fancy is his big word right now.  When we watched the state of the union he remarked that "everyone looks so fancy!"

billyhorrible I love when little dudes are dressed up all dapper! Especially when they pick the outfits!

I have a new funny story from yesterday, so it still counts as Thursday!

We went outside to play in the afternoon after DS refused his normal nap.

He was playing pretty hard and eventually wanted to swing. He asked for his sunglasses (which no longer fit him-BabyBans lol. Add that to the list of things he needs) and I was laughing at how I couldn't see his expressions. I kept saying 'Are you sleeping?' And then he'd make a funny face to surprise me.

One time, he didn't respond to me. So I asked again, and still no response. I bent down to him and sure enough he was snoring. So he actually fell asleep while he was pretending to sleep and I didn't know for a couple minutes.

Some of these are great! Thanks for sharing.

L invented a game for the first time yesterday. She has one of those cups with a spout and two handles. She was having a drink and she glanced at H, who smiled at her. Then she pretended to drink, pulled the cup down and smirked. H caught on and said, "Hello baby!" every time she put the cup down, which she thought was hilarious. It was the simplest game, but she came up with it herself and she was so proud.

I dozed off while feeding my son yesterday for what I'm guessing was about 15 minutes. I woke up to my 2 year old daughter saying "snow angels!" She had poured flour all over the kitchen floor and was pretending that her stuffed snowman was doing snow angels.

DH is currently in Canada for work. I called him this morning and he quickly answered to say he'd call right back.
He calls back and says he was in an elevator with a naked man who was yelling at him in French when I called. He wins story of the day.

Must hear more. Who is this man? Why the F was he naked in an elevator?

tiffbot that is the cutest story. Are those sunglasses for toddlers to wear while playing in the snow? I think DS needs something like that because it's so bright out there. Right now I just have him wearing my tinted swimming goggles.

[tiffbot]

@poppyc8 Indont know that they are specific to snow, just sunglasses but they are pretty awesome and stay on good! Both of my kids were actually gifted some as babies.

I just saw while searching for these that there is sizes for 2-5 year so might have to do that!

Some man in the hotel who had locked himself out of his room. H doesn't speak any French so who knows what was said to him. He could only talk for a minute but he said there weren't any other details.

Locked himself out of his hotel room naked.. Oh yikes. I feel bad for that guy but I think worse for you H for having to be in an elevator with him!

This question only just dawned on me, How do you lock yourself outside of your room naked?

Drunk. My uncle is an alcoholic and did just that. He thought he was walking into the bathroom, but it was the hallway.
