Grayson funnies

2009 is not proving to be a good blogging year for me so far...I hope I still have readers left! We're still dealing with sick children around here, and now I'm coming down with a chest cold. I'm so ready for Spring to get here so we can get well and stay well! Hopefully sicknesses will disappear soon and more hours in the day will magically appear so I can find time to update my blog more often! :)

In the meantime (no pictures to post...nobody looks cute these days with the snotty noses and red eyes!), I thought I'd post a few funny things that Grayson has said lately. He makes us laugh so many times every day---I just love this kid!!! 

-----------------------------------------------

In the car a couple of days ago, Emma Claire dropped her stuffed monkey and Grayson decided that she needed to be reprimanded. Just imagine this being said in a very stern, Mommy-like tone...

"LISTEN to me, Emma Claire!! Grayson says NO!"

I wonder where he's heard that.... :) 

-----------------------------------------------

Yesterday the children wanted me to get out their baby doll strollers, which get put away at least once a day because they usually end up slamming them into each other and somebody gets hurt/angry/etc....

Me: "Okay, you can play with your strollers, but if I see either of you banging your stroller on the other one then I'm taking them away."

Grayson: "Then how about you just don't see us banging them? "

I think he's a ten year old smarty-pants in a three year old body! 

-------------------------------------------------

At Ben's parents house a couple of weekends ago, Grayson and Emma Claire were were looking at all of the little birds that were eating at a feeder hanging right outside their back door. 

Grayson: "I see a bald eagle!!!!"

Um, I think we need a refresher course on animals and birds...see below...

------------------------------------------------

That same day, we were driving back home and passed a field of cows.

Grayson: "LOOK! I see ELEPHANTS!!!!"

------------------------------------------------

And speaking of a refresher course on animals, I was showing him an online video of the circus that we were going to see (last weekend), and when a bunch of little Dachshunds (wiener dogs) were shown running around together, I asked Grayson what they were...his response: camels. :)
