Breakfast of Prisoners

Was being lazy this morning so asked the hungry kid to go and get himself a snack. He came back to the bedroom with a loaf of bread, a cold block of butter from the fridge and a knife. Very proud of himself.

It'll Stunt Your Growth, Kid

My four-year was hard to wake up this morning. He rolled over, still unconscious, and croaked, "I want coffee."

"Good-bye" is Just so Final

My God daughter and her folks just left. Sadness. Colin said goodbye to her parents but not to her. He just refused and said, "She needs to come back in the house." lol. Little booger.

Wascally Wabbit!

But Now I'm Fine

Colin just spoke to his aunt in Canada. When she asked him how his Christmas was he said, "Well, I used to be dead, but now I'm fine." Hmm.

Santa Came

We were informed at 5:40am that Santa had been here and it was "morningtimetowakeup!" A monumental blast of awesome gifts, big breakfast, more playing and a much needed nap...all before noon.

Tinker All The Way

"Tinkerbell, Tinkerbell, Tinker all the way, used'ta laugh and call him names, Hey! Tinkerbell..." Wish he wouldn't stop singing when I turn the vid cam on him.

All Those Frogs Could Really Mess Up Your Christmas

"Then one froggy Christmas eve, Santa came to say, Rudolph with your nose so bright..."

Rawr

I have been informed that "Rawr" means "I love you" in Dinosaur.

They are SO Scary.

Middle of the night conversation:

"Mom, I so scared."

"What are you scared of, honey?"

"Uh....wadybugs."

Live Babies Cost Extra

My God daughter just raised her babysitting rates on me because, "Colin has never died in her care." Hmm...

Super Mysteries

Trying to explain to Colin why his favorite superheroes wear their underwear on the outside of their pants. "They just do," and "No, you can't wear them to school like that" are the best I can do before coffee.

Sixty Four Days and Counting

Colin has been saying, "I need to go to my birthday party!" all day. His birthday is in December. It is October. How many times and in how many ways can I explain this before my brain melts?

I So Much Love You, Too.

5am, and he woke up sobbing.

"Mom. I so much love you. I saved you inna boat. 'An I fixed you at the big school. I so much love you, mom."

"Was that a dream, honey?"

"Yeah."

I Missed the "Disguise Your Kid" Memo

Picture day at school & Colin is the only boy there without slicked back hair & a button-down shirt. I was just happy he was willing to get dressed at all and then decided on a Superman t-shirt today because it represents what he actually looks like these days.

Too Little, Too Late

I've been saying, "What the heck" a lot lately, insead of other possible swearing, in attempt to clean up my act in front of the kid who repeats everything.

Today Colin dropped his water bottle on his foot and yelled, "What the fuckin' heck!"

Species Confusion

At the lion exhibit at the zoo, Colin pointed to the female. "Wassat?" "That's a girl lion." I said. "The boys have a lot of hair on their heads. Girl lions don't have that hair." "Oh," said Colin. "I finked it was a tiger."

See You Last Weekend!

Colin just said, "bye, see you last weekend!" People are just so damned cute when learning the English language.

4 AM

"Mom, it's morningtime!" Bright as a penny.

I check the window - dark. I look at the clock - 4am.

"Noooooooooooooo!"

"Hehe. Just kidding."

With that, he rolled over and fell back to sleep.

Sweet Like Yogurt

Colin re-named my cat "Yogurt." We're trying it out. "C'mere, Yogurt!" The cat thinks we've all gone insane.

Shit My Kid Says

My name is Kat. I've been blogging over at JustKatStuff for about 2 years now. I write about my kid there a lot, but I have been encouraged by a friends on Facebook to start a blog which is solely devoted to the shit my kid says.

Colin is my kid. He just turned four. He says some pretty funny shit.

Just a note, in case I ever care to note it. I actually started this blog on Sunday, Jan 17th. I'm going back and scooping up shit my kid said that I posted on FB and Twitter and posting them here with their correct dates. This post will show up at the beginning.
