November 2023 Family Funnies
Emmalyn found a stink bug in the kitchen. Apparently Logan had put it in a covered bowl that he had been keeping a (HUGE!) Wheel Bug in & it escaped.
Logan was called to dispense of the stink bug. He rolled a bottle on the bug that was on a cupboard & Emma cries out, “Ewww!”
Logan: “What? It seemed like the logical solution!” 🤣
❤️ I love my kids.
We were driving to KY to visit the Ark & Creation Museum. I was talking with Ellie about the evening’s plans…we planned to check in to the hotel, go eat an early dinner & then let the kids swim. Ellie had been looking forward to swimming, but suddenly said, “I’m not going to swim. I’ll come down with you if you’re going, but I’ll just watch.”
Me: “I thought you were looking forward to swimming?”
Ellie: “I just realized I would have to shower after…and I don’t want to shower.”
Me: “I remember a few months ago when you loved showers & told me you wanted to take one every day!”
Ellie: “That was (swinging her hand to the right) half joke & (swinging her hand to the left) half NOT joke.” 🫣🤪🤔🤣
In the car driving home from our KY Trip, Ellie asks, “Can I unbuckle & buckle right back up?”
Me: “Why would you need to do that?”
Ellie: “I’m in a baby buckle!”
Me….confused….”Um, what do you mean? What’s a baby buckle?”
Ellie jerks forward & is cut short – the seatbelt had locked.
💡😁
Ellie:”Mom, what’s your REAL name?”
Me: “You know what it is?”
Ellie: “MOoooM”
Me: “I know you know it!”
Ellie: “Mom? You’re named Mom? That’s a pretty strange name!”
(For the record she did actually know it…)
Ellie (as I’m working on sewing with Lucas): “Aren’t you so proud of me! I chose to do school all by myself! You asked me earlier, & I did that, but then I told myself to do it later all by myself!”
Me “Good job, Ellie! I appreciate your doing your school!”
Ellie: “I just asked myself…my arms & my legs…& said we would do it!”
Me: “Ellie, How are you doing? Are you eating your dinner?”
Ellie: “My eating arm fell asleep!” (Feel the drama!)
Papa: “Why are you eating that arm!?!” 😳 😆😕😒😞
Ellie, coming over to me as I’m laughing….”You love it when I make you laugh, don’t you?”🤣😅
