Our Silly Boy


Sam has two words that he frequently says wrong. Noise has become Noisy and Loud is Lousy. So if he hears something and doesn't know what it is he will say, "Mom, what is that noisy?" or if something is really loud he will say, "Dad, you have lousy music." It is funny to hear how somethings come out...
"Those kids are really lousy."
"Mom you are really lousy."
"The noisy just gets lousier and lousier."

Sam to my sister Melissa (18): You have a baby in your stomach?
Melissa: No!
Sam: When you grow up, you get sick and have a baby?

Sam: Lola, you want to play Wack-a-Mole with me?
Lola: I want to play Wack-a-Sam
Sam: No! Wack-a-Lola

Brandon and Sam were playing pirates the other day...
Brandon: Arg. Tell me where your buried treasure is.
Sam: We don't have buried treasure here.
Brandon: I'll carve your heart out with a spoon. (A little too graphic for a 2 1/2 year old. I know.)
Sam: No, dad, spoons are for eating.
Now Sam is always running around the house saying, "Arg Matey. I hook ya with my hook."

While passing out conversation hearts to Brandon and me, Sam found one that said, "URA tiger." Since then he is constantly saying , "Dad, you and me are tigers. GRRR."

Sam found a spot where the sun was lighting the carpet. He didn't want the sun on the carpet and decided the best way to get rid of it would be to vacuum it up. He used an attachment and repetitively went over the carpet. As the sun moved the sun spot got smaller and then eventually moved to the wall, just around the corner from where Sam was working so hard to vacuum up the sun. He is now convinced that we can suck up the sun with the vacuum and put it in the garbage with the rest of the dirt.

Sam was feeling the baby kick and said, "He popped out." Which is exactly what it feels like he is trying to do sometimes.

Brandon was changing Sam's diaper and said, "That is sick."
Sam's reply, "No dad it is poopy."

Sam was playing with Jillian and was throwing himself on the ground to get a laugh.
Jillian: You are falling on purpose.
Sam: (pointing to the ground) Is this purpose?
Jillian: No
Sam: (pointing to the heater vent) Is this purpose?
Jillian: No
Sam: Where is purpose?

Lola gave Sam an extra Beauty and the Beast puzzle. No matter how many times we try and correct him, he insists on calling it his "Booty and the Geek" puzzle. By this time we think it is so cute, we don't even try to correct him any more.

Cute, cute, cute!!! Marc and I have decided that blogging all the cute things are kids say is a good way to record it so I'm going to start doing it too. Aden's constantly telling us, "my belly says its not tired, my belly says it's time to wake up." Basically his belly tells him everything to do and not to do.
