Das Not Funny! Friday: Right in the sniffer



It's Friday again already. What a week we've had! Last night some friends of ours blessed our socks off and descended upon our rental house and cleaned it better than I even thought possible. But, I'm guessing that's not why you are here today.

So saddle up and join me while I share with you the funnies from my kids in this week's edition of Das Not Funny! Friday. And don't ask why I said "saddle up" because I don't know why. Maybe Lucas' affection for all things cowboy has finally caught up with me.

Elizabeth and Ashlee were cleaning their VERY dirty room. At the bottom of a large pile of clothes and blankets Elizabeth finds some dirty panties and smells them.

Elizabeth: "Shoooo weeee. These stink! Smell them Mom!"

Me: "Uh...No thanks."

Elizabeth: "Okay, smell them Ash."

Ashlee: "Ew. Somebody tooted in doze!"

As Elizabeth walks out of their bedroom carrying them to laundry room, Ashlee goes running behind her saying, "Wait! Lemme smell dem again."

A few weeks back I borrowed the Planet Earth series from our library. For several nights in a row the big kids would join Luke and I in our bed and watch an episode as our bedtime story. One night, Luke broke wind as he left to get something in another room. Immediately Elizabeth darts from our bedroom and into the bathroom, returning with the air freshener.

When Luke returned to our bedroom Elizabeth was fogging our room with air freshener and Lucas pipped up and yelled,

"Dad. Shoo-wee dude. You stink! Get outta here."

Brinkley, our golden retriever, was walking through our living room recently. Elizabeth said something to her and called her over.

Lucas asserted, "Mom. I think Brinkley's a boy."

To which Elizabeth replied, "No Lucas. Brinkley's a girl. Just look at her butt."

I have no idea what that means but apparently it cleared up any misconceptions on Lucas' part.

Our kids are into playing "Puppy" and sometimes it changes to "Horsey." Whichever is the flavor of the day it generally annoys the mess out of me after about 5 minutes. Mostly because the incessant barking and screeching from the "puppies" or the obnoxious neighing from the "horses."

One afternoon recently, all three big kids were in full blown Puppy mode. As I bent over to pick up something from the floor my bottom became the object of Puppy Ashlee's interest and I found myself having to physically pull her nose away from my bottom. I absolutely demanded she stop when she proceeded to try and lick my...um...butt.

Yes, I'm serious.

Y'all have a great weekend. Happy Friday!
