Boo: You know what would be gross? If someone peed in the speaker of their phone. Real gross.
After voting this past election, Boo and I climbed in the ol’ minivan. I asked what he wanted to do next. He said: What should we do? I vote for McDonalds. Get it, I VOTE!
Squirt: I kilt a snake. [no, he didn't]
Boo: I want to live in Florida because of armadillos, or Oklahoma to watch TV and shop. Or St. Louis because of Granny.
Squirt: I rode a mingo in Africe. [no, he didn't]
Boo: It’s so lucky that no one in our family has been frozen in a block of ice.
Boo: I don’t really know what Squirt is saying sometimes [Me either, Little Man. Me either.]
Squirt: Hi, Mustache! [upon greeting one of the Detective's cousins, who does in fact have a mustache]
Boo: You know what would be funny? Us sitting around playing poker. Only instead of cards, we had pancakes. [I may just call that breakfast]
The day after we went to a Royals’ baseball game - Squirt: I GOT SOME HOT TEA! GOT YOUR HOT TEA HERE! [not sure hot tea would be a good mobile concession item to carry around]
Boo: Scooby Doo is my specialty.
Squirt: I two. Not three. Three is when you have to go to work. [on denying his age and spouting his random Child Labor edict]
Squirt, while our pug Dude was jumping on him: I might beat him. [no idea where this came from as we aren't really dog beaters]
Boo: Some people think toots are funny, but really they just smell.
Love your funny kidlets! Love that you take the time to listen. Reminds me of when my daughter was 6. I came in the bathroom to help her dry off after her bath and as she stood at the sink I noticed her arm was hairless…razor on the side of the tub.
“Were you playing with mommy’s razor?”
hangs her head and mumbles “uhh no…”
I look at her face in the mirror and see most of her eyebrow is missing! (offer a quick prayer of thanks that there is no blood!!) “Chris! your eyebrow is gone!!”
She turns and looks at me in horror and pleads “DON’T TELL ANYBODY!!”
Ummm…. ok, won’t need to, right??
I love it! but…perhaps you should check your phones including cell..just to be on the safe side. lol
Hahah, thank’s for a good laugh!^^
Haha! What a clever little Boo! Reminds me of my little boy. Keep ‘em coming!
Awesome! A good friend of mine has 4 kids and throughout the year, she documents all of the funny things they have to say. During the holiday season, she sends out a letter of the Top 12 Funnies instead of the traditional “letter”. It’s the ONLY card I look forward to receiving every year! :)

“Boo: Some people think toots are funny, but really they just smell.”
This one is my favourite…it reminds me of my daughters school report on the planet Jupiter. “My dad is like the planet Jupiter. They both have an atmospere of smelly gas.”

I love that Squirt is saying he’s too young to work! I have twins and we started taking them to my husband’s office almost every day when they were about 6 weeks old and we called it their office time!
Thanks for the laughs! Your kids sound awesome.
One of the reason I started blogging was to have a good place to write the “funnies” my kids say. Or rather, child says, as my Lil Diva has yet to say more than a few words, much less string them together. Most crack me up, but this one was so “I can’t believe his mind went THERE.”

And thanks to my blog my Mommy Brain won’t let me forget it, like all the things I’m certain it has before I started writing things down.
The pancakes one is great.
Glad you count your blessings that no one has been frozen in a block of ice as well. :-)
I love these. After readig your funnies, I’ve started recording the ones I hear in my grade four class! Thanks for sharing!
A day without “mingo” is just not a good day… :-)
My favourite is:
Boo: You know what would be funny? Us sitting around playing poker. Only instead of cards, we had pancakes.
So funny! I think I’m going to suggest pancakes as chips for the next poker party. That would certainly inspire me to try to win more often! Thanks for sharing!
So cute. Kids crack me up.
Aww, those “I kilt a snake” and other actions from Squirt remind me of when my little brother talked about when he was a little boy in mexico. He’s 25 and STILL has never been to Mexico!
Cute kiddos :)
Squirt is probably the funniest kid I’ve ever heard of, I’ve never laughed this hard in my life. “I rode a mingo in Africe.” Absolutely hysterical.
Thank you - my day (2 out of 3 children have gastric flu and the 19 month old likes to share her vomit) needed a lighter moment and you really made me laugh. A little hysterically maybe, but laughing is laughing.
I can just imagine how cute they were during this. Thanks for sharing! Happy Thanksgiving!
BWhahah I would say that as they get older those moments get fewer. But they don’t lol.. Mine still leave me laughing and scratching my head
Dude is the best name for a dog ever! If that is his real name.
You can count me as a fan and a subscriber from this point on. You have an authentic voice that deserves attention. I hope that you continue to get positive feelings from all this attention. You’ve hit a nerve that needed to be hit.
I love the funnies!
Hilarious!! “I rode a mingo in Africe”. LOVE IT!
I was never blessed with children so it’s wonderful to read these! Thanks for sharing :)
LOL!!! Thanks for the laugh. :-))
My niece recently said, “I think I’m going to go crazy if I don’t get married soon!!!!” She’s four.
The last one is my favorite :)
I love these. I collect my son’s funnies too (he is also 3). Your story about child labor lawas reminded me of this one.
Recently J told me, I don’t want to grow up, because I don’t ever want to become a girl. I replied, J you won’t ever be a girl. J: I still don’t wanna grow up.
Later that night while preparing dinner he said “I don’t like steak.” Me: You can’t say you don’t want to try steak, but you can’t say you don’t like it when you’ve never tried it. J: I don’t ever wanna try steak. Nanna: Maybe you’ll wanna try steak when you grow up. j: I don’t wanna grow up. Poppy: Then you be like Peter Pan. J: Peter Pan was a boy. Me: that’s right, the boy who didn’t want to grow up. J: Peter Pan didn’t want to grwo up because he
didn’t want to try steak.
Really, thank God no one has been frozen in a block of ice. That’s flippin’ hilarious!!
Bad news. Sometimes your kids don’t grow out of things. For example, I am thirty and I have just decided the next person I see with a mustache will be greeted with “hi Mustache!” because this is unbelievably hilarious. My mother will be horrified.
This was great for some laughs while I drink my coffee this morning! Thanks for sharing!
Kids are great, aren’t they? I’ve done a few fill-in-the-blank questionaires with the kids and its always a treat to see what they come up with. I posted one (completing famous sayings) here: http://jenpb.blogspot.com/2009/02/famous-sayings-from-eyes-of-child.html. I wonder how your little ones would complete it. DO TELL! :)
no, i disagree, depending on who does it and how loud it is, I believe toots are VERY funny.
and i am so grateful that you all have NEVER been frozen in a block of ice. WHEW!!!
Your kids are TOO funny. I love how Boo feels three is when you have to work.
Kids honestly say some of the funniest and craziest things, but that’s what makes you love them right?
I agree with Boo… toots just smell. lol
Oh how I LOVE when littlies share!! So funny! My 9 year old son declared that “Bootstrap Bill” killed Martin Luther King, Jr. He was serious! LOVE it!!
Thanks for sharing this exchange-it brought me back to when my four kids were little, and I really did laugh out loud.
I love the whole age denial…LOL!!!!!
