When Jake was just learning to talk he would always answer "yes" to a question by saying "me".
Ex: Do you want a drink? "me".
He called Bumble bees, Boobies; potatoes, punatatoes; bananas, bununanas--and he got potato and banana mixed up and called them bununana bugs. 2
"watering can't and garbage can't" 2
He called his new cousin Booby Caper instead of Baby Cooper. 3
One of his first prayers:
"Heffather, thankful this day, bless momma all better, bless Joshy all better, bless vinegar, bless pumpkins, bless wind, bless candles, bless flowers, Jesus Christ, Amen" 2 1/2
He thought the Dinosaur Museum was called Dinosaurs to see 'em. I tried to correct him so he changed it to Dinosaurs, you see 'em. age 3-6
When I got my hair styled curly he said "Momma, what's your hair doin'?" 3
Anytime I would get mad, Jake would say in a concerned voice: "momma, you're not mad, your happy." 3
Jeff came home from a bad day at work. We were all eating dinner and Jeff said he had lost a big motion (case) at work. Jake, trying to help, said: "I'll help you find it dad." 3 1/2
Out of the blue: "If Jesus comes to babysit, are you gonna stay or leave?" 4
Jake was watching a movie with a big, bald, black guy in it and asked Jeff, "How come some chocolate guys don't wear hair?" 4
Jake was wondering where dad was and asked me, "Is daddy on a date?"
I said no because he goes on dates with mommy. He asked what a date was and I tried to explain. He thought for a minute then asked, "does a date have a slide?" 4
"Is Jesus the boss?" 4
Jake had his Dracula Halloween costume on and he put his fake teeth in and said "Hah! I'm a scary guy!" He then quickly took the teeth out and said "don't worry mom, it's just me" 4
Jake got out of bed to tell me this:
"Mom, I just gotta tell ya somethin', I ate too much and I feel kinda sick, and we need to get pineapple and watermelon for fruit." 5
I said "This has been a lovely Mother's Day"
Jake: "Be prepared, cuz tomorrow's not" 8 (He said this 2 days ago on mother's day)
Lucy's Turn: I fear I have not been as dedicated to writing everything down like I should.
"That cute daddy boy is cute!" as she watched Jeff leave for a bike ride. 3
In a prayer: 'Bless Max that he won't be lost anymore, bless that we can go back to Disneyland, bless Jesus that He won't die right now anymore." 3
Graham Cracker = "gramp crapper" 2
"Mom, why is your bum so big?" (I was 8 months pregnant by the way), then, "Mom, your bum is wiggling. Can you feel it wiggle when you walk?" almost 4
We debated and debated between Isaac and Samuel for names for the new baby. It was pretty much decided that it would be "Isaac" even though Lucy kept saying she liked Sam. Finally, one night right before the baby was born we were discussing it again and trying to tell Lucy that his name would be Isaac. She replied very matter-of-fact-ly: "Fine, you can call him Isaac, but I am going to call him Sam" ...and that's how little Sammy got his name. almost 4
(Then I actually had the baby and all hell broke loose in my life and I have not recorded and more sayings. Now that he (we) is/are better, I am going to be more diligent.)

Amy what a good mom you are for recording all that stuff. I would give anything to have written my kids stuff down..I was too lazy.
Your kids are so funny. Gramp Crappers haha.
Loved that Amy! I'm laughing out loud. My favorite is "I'll find it" about the motion. And I totally remember Josh calling you Wendy! Hilarious. :)
I love it! I really have to be better about writing stuff down. Just today, Carson said the blessing on the food at Rich and Lynne's and he said the right stuff, like "bless the food, thank you for the food," and added "thank you for pennies, and thank you for cars." Not quite vinegar, but perhaps that was really important to Jake, just like pennies apparently are.
SO CUTE!
Would it be inappropriate to add that Carson said, "I LOVE BOOBIES!!" the other day? I was like, you love WHAT? Do you even know what they are?
hilarious.
love that jake called it dinosaur you see em from ages 3 to 6. loved lucy's about jeff going to ride his bike. your kids really are hilarious!
