Jake, "Porter, say spoon 10 times; now spell it three times (we had to help with this one a little); now say it again 10 times. Now what do you eat your spaghetti with?"
Porter, "MEATBALLS!"
We laughed so hard! He is such a funny kid!
The next one. . . We
ll, let's just say Porter is about the quickest undresser I know--especially at inopportune moments. This kid can get down to his skivvies in 2.2 seconds, and worse, he can generally convince the kids around him this is a good idea too. Note the 2 pictures below. One was at the baseball field while we were watching Jake practice with his team, the second, was at Christmas. Both pictures attest to my youngest's fondness for inappropriate nudity.
On to the story. . .I am hauling laundry downstairs as my husband, who rides his bicycle everyday to work is coming upstairs. I set the basket down to have a conversation with him, and he strips off his sweaty stuff and puts in in the basket as we are catching up on our days. I get the clever idea of pulling out the 2 $5 bills I have in my pocket (having any money is a very rare occurrence for me) and laughingly stuff them into his shorts, in appreciation for the striptease I just had. Paul starts laughing and begins dancing in earnest, at which point, Porter, already stripped to undies, comes to join the show. The really awful thing? He wasn't half bad.
This is the child my mother cursed me with, when she said, "Someday, I hope you have a child just like you." It's called KARMA.

Cute stories. I believe kids can undress faster than getting dress. I have to sit on Brooke to put her diapers on.
It's the age, all of my kids have been nudists at one time or another. Currently, my 3 year old prefers just undies to anything else and this is when it is only 17 degrees outside. Fortunately, no one has shown her how to dance for money that way yet.
