    I'm sure most of you are familiar (or maybe not) with the Overheard in Pittsburgh blog where people write funny things they hear strangers say.

    I know, if you're like me, you hear a lot of funny things in your own house, so I thought I'd start a place we could share the funny things our kids (or husbands!) say

     

    I'll start:

     

    Last night I had the boys listening to some of "my music" in the car when Matthew said "Why does he just want us to wiggle it a LITTLE bit? I want to wiggle it a lot!"

     

    A few weeks ago Ben was throwing a tantrum and laying flat on the floor.  Matthew is really into his alphabet right now, and so he went up to Ben and laid down right on top of him. When I asked him what on earth he was doing he said "That's ok mom, we're making an X!!"

    My daughter is constantly climbing on everything.  The one day I was in the kitchen and she kept trying to jump up on the dishwasher.  I told her to get down and she says "I have to get up her mommy"  so I asked her why she had to get up there.  She says to me "because I'm a mermaid"  Of course I had to go with it and asked why that meant she needed on the dishwasher.  Her reply was "mermaids sit on the rocks and the dishwasher is my rock" as she proceeded to do a cute little pose for me.

    She's a riot.

    Way back when Danny was around 30m/o, guess this goes into the "I'll always remember this" category:

    It was almost bedtime and he was still in a crib, so we limited the number and size of stuffed animals he could take to bed with him.  With a great amount of seriousness he walked into the kitchen and asked "mommy can sharky sleep in bed with me tonight?"  I said "Sure he can!" despite the fact that this stuffed shark was 1/2 as big as Danny.  He ran out of the kitchen into the hallway and I overhear him say "Sharky, she said YES!" and he had such an OMG can you believe it this is the best thing ever kind of tones.

    This is actually about an 8 year old girl I was a nanny for. We were at Linen's N Things and she asked what I needed to get. I told her I was looking for Bed Skirt. After a couple minutes she said "Doesn't Matt sleep with you?" (Matts my fiance and she knew that) I said "yes?" I wasn't sure where she was going with that question. Then she said, "He's a boy isn't he going to be mad if you put a skirt on the bed?"

    When my nieces were 2 and 6 we took them to the zoo.  Afterward we stopped to get some ice cream.  Walking back to the car with our ice cream my husband dropped his keys in a puddle and said "Oh Sh%*.".  The 2y/o immediately repeated his exact phrase and I gasped and looked at them.  The 6y/o looked at us and said "Don't worry she's heard Mommy say that a million times."

    I've got another good one

     

    The other day we were taking a walk and Matthew said "mommy, when we use the right words, we can change the world". 

    Deep thoughts from a three-year-old.
     I asked him who told him that and  he said 'the spider, on my tv"

    Ahhh, of course.
