Don't care what it's about but what a laugh?

If you've been reading Das Not Funny! Friday for any length of time, you know that a lot of the funnies come from when the kids should be in bed, but stagger into our room well past bed time.

This week is no exception.

One night this week, after bedtime, Ashlee cracks open the door to our room. Our conversation went something like this:

Luke: "Yes Ashlee. What do you need?"

Ashlee: "Polar bears are white and they live in the snow. And penguins are different colors and they live in the snow. And penguins don't have hands. And brown bears don't live in the snow.

Goodnite."

One night this week I texted my friend Grace and asked if she could skype. When my phone jingled, Luke picked it up to read her reply.

"What's it say?" I asked.

"It's from Grace. She said, 'sigh'?"

"Sigh? Huh? Let me see."

I grabbed the phone from my husbands hand and burst out laughing.

"Um. Honey...that says 'Si'." I said, still chuckling.

"See? How does that say see?"

"Not 'see,'" I said, "'Si,' as in yes in Spanish."

Yes people. I'm serious. I'm suppose to tell you he took French not Spanish but I think that's hardly an excuse.

"Hey Mom, has the baby come out of your tummy yet?" Elizabeth asked one afternoon.

"Um. What do you think sweetie? Does it look like the baby is out yet?" I replied.

"No. Your tummy is still really HUGE."

Thanks baby. Mommy feels so good about herself now.

Finally, Lucas and Elizabeth dressed themselves one night this week before bed. They were playing "Jane and Tarzan." Here are their "costumes."

Why yes! That is a tank top and leggings with a swimsuit on top.

And, for the record, I believe that Tarzan is much more jungle-ly with his sister's panties on top of his Pj's. Especially when the crotch is worn inside-out on your hip.

Happy Friday y'all!
