Kid Quotes and other funnies

While Ezra was at the hospital recovering from his tonsillectomy, the nurse was standing nearby as he ate a popsicle. All of a sudden he said, "Stinkbomb!" The nurse said, "What does that mean?" He said, "I tooted. And it was a big one."

While Nolan was practicing the piano, I kept reminding him of the notes by saying, "Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge." Well, when he was done, Ezra was concerned and said, "Mom, I thought Nolan deserved fudge!"

During the summer, the boys were spending too much time playing Minecraft. We set a rule that there would be no playing until 4 o'clock. Well one day, I dozed off around 1 o'clock while reading my book. When I woke up the clocks said 5:15. I couldn't believe it! It turns out that the boys had changed most of the clocks so that they could play their game. I was relieved to find that it was only 2:15. That would have been quite a nap!

The boys love playing with Clarice from next door. She knocked one day while we were eating dinner. She said she'd wait outside for them to finish. The boys were taking a long time to eat so I hurried them along so that Clarice wouldn't be waiting. Nolan said, "Don't worry. Clarice is a patient woman."

Ezra asked me, "Do you think someone could count to 100?" Well, I quickly counted all the way to 100 and then he said, "Wow, that is actually pretty boring!"

Lacey told me that Ezra told Rob, "You have a big, fat forehead!"

I was working on the computer and Nolan came up to me and said, "When I grow up I'm not going to let my wife blog." Clearly I was interrupting his minecraft time.

Nolan was telling me all about a minecraft mod that he wants to create. (It was very involved.) Then he thought for a moment and said, "If I make that mod then I might actually get a lot of girls, which would be a pain in the butt. I'm just not that into girls." I told him that that's good and he said, "Yeah, this isn't the age that I'm supposed to get a girlfriend."

Justin had a cold so I was sleeping downstairs. For some reason, I woke right up at 11:15 p.m. and thought I should check on the boys. It turns out that they weren't in their beds or anywhere in the house. Then I noticed that the front door was unlocked. I opened the door to find them on the porch, cuddling in a sleeping bag and watching a movie on the tablet. What little stinkers sneaking out before they are even teenagers! They said they were going to sleep on the grass but they saw lightning.

Ezra is not a breakfast person but I'm always offering him various cereal options. One day, he got frustrated and said, "Ugh! You always prefer me to have cereal!"

Ezra was watching Lucy and decided to give her a little snuggle. Then he turned to me and said, "Mom, thank you for having a baby!"

And just barely, Nolan was wondering who I was sending this to. I told him it was going on the blog and he said, "Oh no, you and your blogging!"

Your boys crack me up. Who knew they could be so sneaky at such a young age. Changing the clocks was pretty clever!
