Proud Mommy Moments: He said what???

You know the drill- or just in case you don't... It's Thursday! Time for Proud Mommy Moments. This is a weekly- every Thursday- meme hosted by Kmama of the Daily Dribbles and myself. This is your chance to brag about your kids and tell us those awesome things they have done or tell us the times that make you oh so "proud"- but hey at least it gives us all a good laugh.


Please, please grab the button for your post to help spread the word about this fun meme. Also, please remember to link up to your specific post and not your blog in general. And as always, remember that PMM are not just for moms!

This weekend Lucas and Alex were playing school. Lucas was the teacher and would show Alex what to do and she would copy his work.
"Okay what is 4+10?" he would ask. It was quite cute and many memories of playing similar games as a child flashed through my head.

I had to interrupt their game so we could go pick up the babysitter. Eric was out of town and I was going running with my girls-- only two more weeks until the 5K! Yes- I paid a babysitter so I could run. That is a statement I never thought I would say.

"Alex is a good student and her card never gets turned over." Lucas told me while we drove in the car. "But we are pretending like there is one bad kid Max and he always gets in trouble. He even kicked a kid in the private parts."
"Hey, you don't need to pretend that." I replied.

We made it to the babysitter's house. The kids were both very excited and were soon both talking the babysitter's ear off as we drove back home.
"Do you want to play school with us?" Lucas asked. "I am the teacher and Alex is the student. I am teaching her math and writing. She is a good student and doesn't get in trouble."
"But there are some bad students" Alex added.
"Yes including one boy Max," Lucas jumped in. "He is often mean and he kicked one boy in the p****!"

Yes- he did just say the correct name to the the 13-year-old girl babysitter.

Yea- wasn't so proud at the moment.

What is your PMM this week?

  7. I wonder who was more red, you or the babysitter. haha. I remember Kristin telling the missionaries I was pregnant with Ryan...we had just found out...it wasn't enough to tell them that I was pregnant mind you. She also had to tell them how I had peed on the stick. Good times.

  12. Of course he said it once the sitter was in the car. Too funny. At least he used the right now instead of a derogatory name for it!

    I love that they are fixated on this boy's actions. Did they have some encounter with a crotch kicker? Kids are hilarious.

  15. LOL! Oh my gosh that is too funny.
    I was just thinking today that I need to get a babysitter so I don't have to run at 5 am anymore! So no, I don't think you're crazy for paying a babysitter while you run.

  19. Ok, that is just funny! At least the correct term was being used. My brother called his penis his pinky for the longest time. I would get so confused!!

  20. Hmmm...maybe you shouldn't have corrected him when he said "privates." He probably thought he was doing you a favor!
