My kids have been coming up with a fake TV show starring 2 original characters they've invented: Mr. Poopsoup and Dr. Dogpee. I told them to draw pictures and we could make it into a little animated video. Hop they follow through.
Mr. Poopsoup now has a co-worker, Tootie Fartle.
so dumbMr. Poopsoup now has a co-worker, Tootie Fartle.
They've begun drawing them and coming up with a story. My telling them that I'll put it on YouTube is a huge motivator (since I won't let them put themselves on YouTube).
That explains a lot about Mr R.We walked out of a restaurant at a ski resort in VA and were greeted by a very cute cat begging (the wife, 7yo floppinha and I are all cat people, 11yo floppinho definitely isn't.) Cat is extremely skittish, so I pull floppinho and his cousin away to see if the girls can win the cat over.
Floppinho- it could be that the cat has diabetes.

F- you know the disease animals get...diabetes.
... Diabetes? Animals...What?
Yeah, the disease animals get...you know, when they're rabid- foaming at the mouth...diabetes.
My son asked me the same question this morning, exactly the same question.Took the 10yr old to see Aquaman last night.
After the movie, he looked at me and said, "Dad. Why do all of these superhero names have man in them?"
Me just egging him on: "Like what? Give me an example."
10yrold: "You know. Aqua-MAN. Super-MAN. Spider-MAN. Bat-MAN. Wonder Woah..........MAN!"

I'm forgetting every funny thing my kids have said lately.![]()
I have a Note in my Notes app otherwise I’d never remember. Fun to look back at old ones.everytime she says something hilarious I think "I need to remember that for this thread". And then I don't
Was tasked the other day with changing my near 3yo’s pull-up. I never know where things are, so instead of the Minnie Mouse ones, all I could find was the Hulk. I don’t know why we even had this, but we did. Daughter starts to freak out. Not having it. Wants Minnie Mouse.
Thinking fast, I get her to agree she doesn’t like Hulk. Then I said, “Good! Don’t you want to poop on him!”
She mulled this over, then lit up and let out a three syllable, “Yeah!” and stepped in cooperatively.

Without his use of this one word it would have been funny, but this makes it extra special.
My daughter did this too at that age.2yo daughter is almost 3 and in an incredibly cute phase. Doesn’t like me though. Whenever I ask if I can hug her or kiss her head (as I’m apt to do), she answers, “Maybe in the morning.” It can be morning at the time, mind you.
Hopefully a phase. Right now it’s all about mommy.
So imagine my heart swell when this happened... We were split into separate beds at in-laws with one kid each. (8yo really digs dad, thankfully)... Near 10pm, door bursts open with daughter sucking her binky and dragging purple bunny. An exasperated mom is in tow (looks like it’s been a slog to get her to settle), and daughter bursts into tears saying, “I want to sleep with daddy!” After a hullabaloo, she ends up with her head on my chest and 8yo is with mom.
Things are quiet for enough time that I fall asleep, and when I rouse and notice she’s opened the door and is dragging purple bunny, slurring through the binky as if she’d gone to a Metallica concept and Nickelback showed up instead.
“I don’t want to sleep with daddy.” Then the door slammed.
This is how little girls get ponies.
At least I got my 8yo back.
Both my kids flip-flop on the whole "mommy/daddy put me to bed" thing. Well, usually just the almost-8-year-old daughter. The 6-year-old son is all about mommy, but will occasionally let me read to him, etc.My daughter did this too at that age.
And even now, at age 8, she picks her spots. At this point though I can fire back:
Her: Well, I want mommy to put me to bed. Stay out of my room.
Me: Ok. I'll remember that when you are 16 and want a sports car....
Her: Well....wait a minute....daddy?

My 3 yo daughter doesn't pronounce her "s" at the beginning of words. Not uncommon, but still cracks me up when she says certain words like "wimming" and when she tells me she's going to put on her "neakers".
Well, one day she's about to eat and asks me for a "poon". Here was the convo:
Her: "Dad, can you get me a poon please"
Me: "Yes, I can get you a poon"
Her: "No, Dad, not a poon. A POON!"

I love when they mispronounce things, and you repeat exactly what they say (mispronounced) and they correct you by saying it wrong again - exactly as you said it.My 3 yo daughter doesn't pronounce her "s" at the beginning of words.

as long as they weren't playing the don't pass line.. because #### that.Not really anything funny that she said, more laughing at the activity. We were at a team party/bday for her soccer team. The family hosting it has converted their garage into a bar, with kegerator, dart board, foosball, tvs etc... Just inside their house they had a craps table. So we had several of the girls (all around 9 yo) playing.
Nothing like them yelling "Easy Ways" or "Field Bet" or even "Craps pays double!"
Dad of the year, teaching his kid to play craps and beer pong.....
Usually I most enjoy the ones from the preschool-aged crowd, but this might be my favorite one in the thread. 10/10. Please give your 11 year old my regards.#6, 11yo, boy.
Him: mom when I grow up I want to buy a house right here in town so I can take care of you when you’re old.
Me: or you can go anywhere in the world and follow whatever dream you have and I can just come live with you when I’m old.
Him: oh. No. I will move here in town so I can come to your house and make sure you’re ok. I don’t want some crazy old lady living with me.
Why cant they stay sweet and honest forever?
My sister was 14 and frustrated at one of my friends for teasing her. She tried to tell him, "You're so annoying", but in her frustration told him, "You're so erotic". She's 35 now and we're still getting mileage out of that one.Speaking of mispronouncing things, I think it is a common thing, but my youngest used to say "ones if" instead of what if. We let it go for a while, because I thought it was common, but then he got a little old so we would correct him. He is pretty bull headed, so he resisted changing, so it turning into teasing him about it. As a family, we like to give each other a hard time, and he's pretty good at pushing buttons. Whenever he strikes someones nerve, they just say "ones if" to him and he goes from 0-60 is no time flat. He's 15 now. We've gotten decent mileage from it.
Well he's not wrong...So my brother and his wife are expecting their first child....
Me and the wife/kids are out camping and the wife made pancakes. One of the pancakes had a little dribbled batter off to the side (looked like a Q). Of course the boys say the pancake had a little ****. My 10yr old goes "this means Uncle's baby is going to be a boy!"
Fast forward a few weeks - my brother announces that they are indeed having a boy. My wife and the kids were out with the grandparents, so I texted my wife with the news. My wife relay's back...
"the boys are screaming in the van "its a boy!".... 10yr old just said "pancakes never lie"

had me with the music.
my mom tells me I used to say "meinz" (sounds like "heinz"). every single time I see her.My 7-year old daughter said it when she was 4-6ish and now I'm hearing the 6-year old boy say it... instead of "it's MINE", it's said "it's MINES". Sounds like something Gollum from Lord of the Rings would say. He'll grow out of it just like the almost-8 year old has. Still funny.
So I, apparently, have hairy feet. My wife's taught KanilJr (7yo) to say, "Filthy Hobitses" is his best Gollum voice anytime I put my feet on the coffee table (usually while I'm playing a video game).My 7-year old daughter said it when she was 4-6ish and now I'm hearing the 6-year old boy say it... instead of "it's MINE", it's said "it's MINES". Sounds like something Gollum from Lord of the Rings would say. He'll grow out of it just like the almost-8 year old has. Still funny.
Give #10 some headphones to sell 4.If you read my teen boy problem thread you will find this hilarious!
#10 (3yo,m) has an obsession with paper money. Has a wallet and gets dollars from #4 all the time. But today he took $35 out of 4’s wallet and put in his own.
4: 10, you can’t take money from my wallet. That’s stealing and it’s wrong and bad!
that's how my kids say itmy mom tells me I used to say "meinz" (sounds like "heinz"). every single time I see her.
