"Will you hold me, Daddy? The wind is blowing to my shirt. Any my hair."
"Can we wipe our noses here? Like a pig?"
- right before we get to the pumpkin patch "farm"
Silas {yelling from his bed}: "Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!"
{and after entering his room, he whispers}: "We have to be quiet."
Mommy: "Why were you yelling?"
Silas: "I don't know."
"Yes, I'm just doing energy!"
- Silas's response to Granmom after running around the playground
Mommy {reading from What Do People Do All Day?}: "'Some people travel from place to place to do their jobs. What does Daddy do?'"
Luke: "Umm...plays games all day."
Mommy: "'What does Mommy do?'"
Luke: "Eat hot dogs, broccoli, ice cream - she likes those things."
Mommy: "Looks like our neighbors are having a party!"
Luke: "They're not having a party, Mommy. They're just having friends over. Having a party means that there are balloons on the mailbox."
"I love playing video games more than anyone on our planet!"
"I think the water I just drank went all over God's head!"
He told me God lives in his tummy. :)
Mommy: "I am so hungry! Let's have waffles. How does that sound?"
Silas: "I don't know. 'Tick, tick, tick'?"
Luke: "Why are we going to church again today?"
Mommy: "It's not a church day. Today's a school day."
Luke: "Well, why am I wearing two shirts?"
- "Picture Day" at school included an undershirt in today's ensemble. :)
Mommy: "What are you guys doing up so early?"
Luke: "We wanted to wake up before the birds!"
Luke's delirious notes on being sick a couple weeks ago:
"I think my throat wants to play with me."
"I think my eyes are asleep." (he was really drowsy)
"I think there are a lot of colors in my nose, and they got all mixed up."
"Hey! I love meat!"
Luke {pointing to a globe}: "Look, Daddy! That's where Aunt Tiffany lives! Somewhere...on that...planet."
"Why am I making so many puppets?"
- Luke's response to bringing yet another popsicle stick "puppet" home from school
"I'm a coach! Where my whistle? I'm Coach Dave!"
- hanging a necklace around his neck (Silas loves watching Luke play soccer!)
At the Georgia Aquarium yesterday in front of the beluga whales...
Aquarium worker {on a microphone}: "As you might notice, the beluga whales are in mating mode, so if you have any youngsters that don't need to see the birds and the bees, we've got some sea otters right through that door."
Luke {loud enough so most people could hear}: "Birds and bees?? They have birds and bees at the aquarium, too??"
Okay, so this is not a quote from either of my kids, but I thought it was hilarious. This was from Luke's first soccer game...
Coach: "Kick it to Ben!"
Kid: "To who?"
Coach: "Ben."
Kid: "Which one?"
Coach: "The one with the brown hair."
Kid {pointing}: "That one?"
Coach: "Yes."
Kid {still pointing}: "Him?"
Coach: "Just kick it straight."
Kid: "To Ben?"
Coach: "Yes." {kick...finally}
Mommy: "Silas! Your pull-up is all dry! Good job! Who's getting to be a big boy?"
Silas: "Luke is!"
"I think it's too hot for a girl to put in her mouth."
- Luke's comment on seeing his first cigarette
Luke: "When I get to be a daddy...hmmm, I don't want to be a daddy because then there would be 2 daddies!"
Mommy: "It's okay, you'll be a daddy to your own little kids."
Luke: "I don't want to change."
Mommy: "I know, but you'll grow up to be a great little boy first. Then you'll grow up to be a great daddy."
Luke: "Will I have to have a beard?"
Mommy: "If you want."
Luke: "I do!"
