January - Kids Say. . .

This is a new addition to my blog.  I am going to put the funny things my kids say from each month.  Here are a few from this past month.

We are planning a trip to Disney World.  Of course, this has been the topic of many conversations at our house.

Landry:  "Mom, what do they have at Disney World?"

Me:  "Everything."

Landry:  "Do they have snow?"

Me:  "No, I don't think they have snow."

Landry:  "Then why did you say they have everything?"

During the presidential inauguration:

Me:  "That's George W. Bush.  That's Barack Obama.  That's Joe Biden."

Landry:  "Where are Stafford and Moreno?"

(For those of you who don't know, Stafford was the quarterback for Georgia and Moreno was their super-star running back.  Yes, our kids are brain-washed.)

McDonald's recently opened within a mile of our house.  Unfortunately, we have to pass by there every time going to or from school.  Nolan is very interested in new things and as we were passing by one day he said "Mama, that house is pretty!  I said "that's not a house, it's McDonald's."  He said "Donald's house is pretty!"  Since it has opened, the kids beg to go there.  (They have only eaten McDonald's once or twice.  I REALLY don't like McDonald's.)  One day after school, they talked me into getting them lunch from there.

Nolan:  "Can we go to Donald's?"

Me:  "How about Chick-Fil-A?"

Nolan and Landry:  "Noooooo.  Please go to McDonald's."

Me:  "Fine, we'll go through the drive-thru."

We come up to the speaker and the guy tells us that the credit card machine is broken and they can only take cash.  I NEVER have cash, so we had to leave.  

Nolan:  "Don't drive.  You didn't get our food!"

Me:  "We can't get anything from there because their credit card machine is broken."

Nolan:  "Can we please go get them some batteries so they can fix it?"

That's about all that I can remember from January.  The funniest thing we have going on right now is Nolan reading Goodnight Moon.  It has become an R-rated version due to the fact that Nolan cannot clearly say "sitting".  So it's "and there were three little bears s_itting on chairs. . .  "  Of course, we can't help but ask him "What were they doing on the chairs?"
