Seen and Heard (Troubles)

I posted about some of the funny ahem sweet things my kiddos are thankful for here: seen and heard about Thanksgiving

I also heard this from my oldest today:

Bud: "Some people have troubles"

me: "Troubles with what?"

Bud: "Troubles with remembering their planets--yeah, that's what Steve from Blue's Clue's said" "That's why they have me..I know my planets"


I'm linking this up to Tiny Talk Tuesdays.

Seen and Heard (macaroni)

Yesterday, Bud was coloring with some of the crayons that come in the 'big pack'  He said, "hey, look there's a crayon named macaroni and cheese"  He must have got a tickle...because he kept saying it "I'm coloring with Macaroni and cheese'.  I didn't really respond because I was busy reading email or something...then I hear him say, "Mom just doesn't understand"...bahahahaha.  Love that kiddo;)
