KID FUNNIES

I need to get these funnies recorded before I forget them?!?

MCKENNA

THE MAGIC OF ADVERTISING

I never realized how much my kids pay attention to commercials until recently when McKenna has decided to become our households very own "Pitch Woman"...

Yesterday I was getting some apples for the kids when Mckenna asked me:

"Mom, have you seen the green bags?"

I looked at her and said, "what are you talking about?"

She then said, "I saw these green bags for fruit on tv and they keep your bananas good for like 25 days!"

I told her I had seen the bags but hadn't ever purchased any...she then looked at me with this "look" and said, "So, you think you don't NEED these bags?!? You just don't care that our bananas are going to go bad?!?"

*******

Now a couple months ago, we were driving down the road and Kenna asked me if I use mascara. I told her that I wear it sometimes but I don't wear makeup everyday. She then went directly into "her pitch": "Well, you know mom, there's a better way! The new Mascara Twirl (or something like that) it curls and applies at the sametime! Don't you want that mom?!?"

STRANGERS LIKE ME

I remembered this one, when we were at the local zoo with McKenna's school. Back when Kenna was a little over three, we took our children to Hogle zoo. One of the zoo's chimps had recently had a baby and it was huddled in a little ball right by the window. McKenna walked up to the window, gazed down at the cute little chimpanzee and started to sing, " I want to know, can you show me..." (from Tarzan) it was so cute!

BRAVO, BRAVO

McKenna and Harrison were doing tricks for each other on the furniture (grrrr...) and after a very impressive move by Harrison, Kenna began clapping and saying, "PROVO....PROVO...PROVO!!" Translation: BRAVO...BRAVO....

HARRISON

THE BREAD

Harrison has made us laugh so many times when he repeats whatever he THINKS we've just said, and it's been way off! Well, the other night we had chicken cacciatore with salad and some french bread. Adam had told Harrison what we were having and to come to the table. I guess when Adam had mentioned french bread Harrison heard something different because Harrison politely asked, "Mom, can you please pass the 'MAN BREAD'?!?" So, from now on, french bread will forever be known to us as "Man Bread"!

The day after our little "car accident" in the garage, Adam had told the kids to watch out for any antifreeze they saw on the floor ....Harrison looked at Adam with this look of disgust and replied, "There's ANT PEE on the garage floor - SICK?!?"

SWIMMING POOL

Adam took the kids to his work the other day. While passing by a house, Adam saw a swimming pool out on the lawn (the 3 layer kind that's white, blue, white...know what I'm talking about?!?) and said, "hey guys, wouldn't it be fun to have a pool like that at our house?" Harrison replied, "yeah, only why would I want to swim in a pool full of whipped cream?!?"

WHO NAMED WHAT!

While we were at Bear Lake this last week (I'm working on the post) Harrison asked Adam this intriguing question: "Dad, why are they named M0-SKI-TOES and not "DRILL NOSE BUGS"? Very interesting question indeed!

I tell ya, I love my kids and their cute and hilarious sayings!
