Oh, well if you're bored...

Me: "Please don't climb on me right now."

Caid: "Why? I'm bored."

He's onto us

Aunt Kristen made us yummy beef stew tonight, and Jack refused to try it.

(Remembering a scene from one of the best movies ever) Me: "Jackie, can you show us how the piggies eat?"

Jack: "What? Oh, I'm not falling for that one."

A few months ago it worked.

He's hot!

Jack was sick the other day. When I got home from work yesterday, I gave him a hug. He said, "Mommy, am I still hot?"

Me: "No, you don't feel hot to me."

Jack: "I mean, am I still hot like [boy Sarah likes]?"

My husband told me this from the day before:

Jack (lying in bed): "Dad, I'm hot."


D: "Well, take off the covers."


Jack: "Not that kind of hot. I'm hot like [boy Sarah likes]!"

Making room for more...

Caid: "I'm starving. All I ate was 3 plates with 2 pieces of pizza each."

Me: "There's no way you can still be hungry if you just ate 6 pieces of pizza."

Caid (pause for one beat): "Oh, I just went to the bathroom."
