Cracking me up

LilZ has really developed a fantastic sense of humor as he gets older. There are times when I know I shouldn’t laugh (usually because he’s being a smart-ass) but it is REALLY difficult. I have to put on my serious face, hide the grin, and say, “Where I appreciate the wit you just demonstrated, being a smart-ass is not allowed…yet.”

Yesterday – he had two good lines that did not require disciplinary action:

Me: How was the first day at daycamp?
Him: (eyeroll) The made us dance to Jesus songs.

**********

Me: Will you get the cokes and gatorade out of my trunk?
Him: Yeah, but what do you want me to do with the body?

**********

Hee. My family ROCKS.

    Okay, that second one? REALLY funny. Where’d you find this kid?

    I love that you’re an early bird because I get to read one more updated post before my day ends at 6a.m. You rock Zoot!

    My kids also say the funniest stuff, but it sucks when I can’t just laugh because I’m the “adult”. You said it best, and I will use what you said “While I appreciate the wit you deomonstrated…”

    So funny. I love the second one!

    “the body” that is hysterical, obviously he is going to make someone a good husband one day…humor will take you far!

    You have achieved an incredible thing. Your son is very cool and shares your sense of humor. And he doesn’t hate you, at least not that I can tell. GO YOU!!!

    I would like any and all tips so I can hope for the same outcome with my precious cherub (he’s 1, so there’s still time!).

    Lurve them both, but especially the body comment.

    LOL, LilZ is 2 cute

    I thought the first one was hilarious. LOL at the body joke. My sister and I recently went to a store and saw they were selling those chest freezers cheap. My first thought was this thing could fit a body in it… she decided it would fit 2. When my friend bought a car we looked in all of the trunks to see how many bodies they would all hold.

    Funny kid, that one. :-)

    Too funny!

    (and how do you dance to a Jesus song? Heck, what is a Jesus song?)

  11. Della says:

    He is a hoot Zoot!

    I have one of those too. A boy about the same age.

    Cracks me up the things that run through his mind and out of his mouth!

    Must be a phase or an inherited genetic thingy….YOU are one of the funniest people I (don’t) know!!!

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
