Tyler's Funnies

Tyler spends his days either making me roll on the floor laughing or wanting to run screaming from the house. He's either hysterically funny or so crazy bad that I don't know what to do with him. He's a nut, and I adore him, even when it's 11:00 at night and he wants to wrestle instead of go to sleep even though he hasn't had a nap for the day. He's unusually energetic, unusually stubborn, and unusually hilarious for such a tiny little three year old.

Today, I choose to focus on the funny side of Tyler. Here are some of the things that have come flying out of Tyler's mouth lately that crack us up.

- Yesterday after Mark left for work, "Mama, can we go on a date? I want to eat cake."

- Aunt Gloria gave him new pajamas with skullheads all over them. He calls them his "man jamas," and he literally asks to wear his "man jamas" every 5 minutes. He doesn't understand that Mommy does not (and has no desire to) do laundry everyday.

- I got Tyler some babylegs with skullheads to try to appease him on the days his pajamas are in the washer. He calls them his "baby-yegs mans."

- The ketchup bottle squirts and makes a tooty noise....Tyler says with a big grin on his face, "It's poopin'."

- We're getting ready for church. Tyler turns my face to his and says, "Listen to me. We can't go church. Gotta go mall. Get chicken."

- When I stroke his head or hug him, I tell him I'm "loving him." That's how I also show him to "love" Piper gently. I was stroking his head last night,and his annoyed response was, "stop lovin' me."

- As my brother is trying his best to scare and intimidate Tyler over dinner (to get him to behave), Tyler simply responds with, "Uh, you don't scare me."

- We asked Tyler a question last night, and he said "no," so Mark said, "so no means yes," (to confuse him I'm sure). Tyler's response - "Uh, no, I don't say 'yes'." How true!!!
