W vs. a failure to communicate

W was with me while I was talking to a pregnant friend at church.  She told me that the baby likes to sleep all day and stay awake all night.  I laughed and said "she's nocturnal".

Then W relayed the story to Dad in the car on the way home.  He said that the baby likes to sleep all day and stay awake all night, "like a turtle".

Get it? I said "nocturnal", W heard "a turtle".

W vs. play dough

Overheard from W while playing with his play dough:

W: *mean voice* I'm not a nice guy, that's why I made a mess!

W vs. Daddy

Daddy is working in the basement, but I hear shrieks of giggles coming from W being tickled.  Finally I hear an exhausted W say, "It's time for you to get back to work, daddy".

W vs. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

This is going to be hard to explain:

W was sitting at the table rambling on and on.  The last thing he says is, "Mama makes yummy dinners" and then a fly flew by right in front of his face.  His reaction to the fly was a drawn out, high pitched, "WHAAAAAAT!"
So, put that all together, and this is what I hear from the kitchen:
"Mama makes yummy dinners! WHAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!"

Mom vs. things where they don't belong

found a potato under the couch...

W vs. singing in church

While the other kids sang to their mothers in church on Mother's Day, mine made faces at me. :)

Mom vs. Bed time

My nightly routine:

Brush teeth
Take out contacts
Check to make sure D is still wearing his PJs
Go to bed.
