Saturday Top 5 Laughs

Linking up with Melissa at The Mommyhood Chronicles! Here are the funniest/cutest things my kiddos did and said this week.

1. I was rocking a crying Joseph, and making soothing noises to get him to stop. At one point I asked him why my baby was crying. Stephanie piped right up and said "Joseph is my baby!" I told her I thought he was my baby and she said "No, he's mine." So I asked her who my baby is. She gave me a "duh" look and said "Stephanie."

2. On Thursday nights Dan works late, so the kids and I are on our own for dinner. After we finished eating, I asked Stephanie to entertain Joseph while I cleaned up. She knelt right in front of him while he was in the Bumbo and proceeded to hand him his animal toys. As she handed each one to him, she told him what sound it made. "JoJo, here is the cow. The cow says Moo!" :)

3. A continuation of the above: after teaching him animal sounds, she got up to run in the other room, and he threw all the toys on the floor. She got very upset, telling him not to throw them, stomped over and put them all back on his Bumbo tray. She turned around, took one step, and he threw them again. She came over to me, hands on hips and said "Mommy. Joseph threw the toys again." With that again, she tossed her hands up in the air in a classic "I don't have any idea what to do about this boy" gesture.

4. Joseph is turning into a little attention hog lately. A classic example happens when we're eating dinner and he's in the swing right next to us, fussing and whining. As soon as one of us looks at him and talks to him, he breaks out in a big grin and giggles at us. The little guy wants our undivided attention at all times, and knows how to get it!

5. Finally, in honor of Easter, this is sure to make you smile.
