Conversations with Colby

Colby cracks me up so much these days, we went from worrying about his not talking to him talking non-stop. I kept a mental note of the things that have made me laugh today, most said on the way home when ereyone else was trying to nap.

• Mommy, those steering wheels are not spinning off. (It took me a minute, his meaning: the giant wind mills were not moving)



• When I get big I am going to get a BIG mommy and two big sissys.



• I need some arrows for Sissy's gun so I can shoot the bad guys.



• After I explained that Mommy calls Papa "Babe" but that he should still call Matt "Papa" or "Daddy" Colby said, "but I like to call him Babe, so I will call him Papa-Babe."



• The thrill he showed EVERY time he saw an industrial sprinkler working in a field. "Did you see that sprinkler, Mama? What about that one?



• Mama, did Laney POOP again? (Laney had already done her duty twice by this time and was innocently sleeping in the van on the way home)



• Mama, what do Veggie Tales (the cartoon characters) eat? Carrots? (To which I replied that I thought they did not eat very much, probably just juice and water.)



• Mama, did someone poop in Laney's diaper? Or did Sissy poop? (said when Laney and Tiff were asleep, and there was apparently a nasty smell in the back of the van.)



• Ganny B. lives very far away but the airplane driver knows how to get there.



• "Mama is this cows milk?" I told him it was. "Well, I do not like cows milk." I told him that everyone drinks cows milk. To which he replied "Not cows."
