Funny Kids

When my kids say something sweet or funny I write it on my phone. I have a lot written down that I need to put on here just in case something happens to my phone. Any time I need a laugh or miss my kids when they're sleeping I read all of them.

We were at Liz's house and Jax came up to me with a penny in his mouth. I took it out and told him it was yucky and that he could choke. Two seconds later he grabbed the penny, looked me straight in the eye and gulped it. I took him to get an X-ray. He had pooped it out. At the end of the appointment he told the technician, "Oh thank you doctor! I feel better already!"

Instead of "forget about it" Jax says, "forget it birdie."
Jax kept calling me Boo Boo Butt and I said, "How about you call me Princess?" He replies, "Okay Princess Boo Boo Butt."

February 2018:
I called Jax a stinker and he told me that wasn't a nice word to say. Carol said, "Would you rather her call you pooper nanny?" Jaxon puts up his hand and says, "Woah, woah, woah, grandma. We need to use nice words."
