Das Not Funny! Friday: Tarzan, Gas and Camels



I'm so glad that it's FINALLY Friday! Welcome to this week's edition of Das Not Funny! Friday. This week I was "blown away" by several of my kids' funny sayings. Here they are...

----------

During story time this week Elizabeth was showing us a picture of Jesus, in our new children's storybook Bible, hanging on the cross. Lucas looked at the picture and said,

"Ooooo! Carzan!"

"No!" Elizabeth corrected, "It's not Tarzan, Bub. It's Jesus!"


"No. Carzan."


"No, Bubbie. This is Jesus."


"Nope. Carzan, Bizzy."


Finally, Luke looked at Elizabeth, patted her leg and said, "It's okay honey. Lucas and Ashlee are still learning. We will just have to teach them."

Lucas looked at Luke, exasperated and said, "Whew! Thanks Dad."

Baby Girl has constant gas. As I went back to her crib to secure a pacifier into her mouth one night this week, her cries begin to subside and with her new relaxation came the hugest man-sized fart. How her 12 pound self can make that kind of noise (and stink), I'll never know.

---------

Speaking of farting (because we totally were, right?) Elizabeth skipped nap this week and had "quiet time" in our room while I blogged, checked emails and such. As she colored on the floor of our bedroom, I hear a HUGE riiiippppppp. Giggling, I look up at her. As calmly as possible, she looked at me and said,

"Whoa! What was that? I have no idea who did it."

Then, she returned to her coloring.

Knowing my children's love for all things involving animals, my friend Lindy sent me the following picture of her and her friend Shawna, having an authentic African adventure.


I called Elizabeth over, knowing she's be stoked to see a picture of 1) Lindy and 2) Lindy on a camel. She eyeballs the picture and says,

"Wow! Lindy? On a camel?" (only "camel" was said in a weird squeaky voice that made me do a double take to ensure she hadn't morphed into a middle school boy).

"What's she doing on there?"

"Just riding, I guess," I replied.

"Who's that on there with her?" she asked.

"That's her friend, Shawna."

"Oh. What's Chris doing down there?" (pointing to the man below the camel).

Now, if you don't know why that is funny, click on the picture and enlarge it. Look at the man below the camel, then look at the picture below. The guy on the left is Chris, Lindy's husband.


"Honey, that man [in the picture] has dark skin, like Baby Girl. Chris doesn't have skin like that."

"Oh. He doesn't?" she questioned.
