Straws

We were at Starbuck's the other day and Aeden got a tall, iced vanilla cream, in a cold cup with whip. He has discovered he gets more whip cream in a cold cup and it doesn't melt. ;)

So he was using his fingers to scoop out the whip and I merely suggested that he use his straw to do it. His response:

{while looking at me like I am a complete and utter idiot}

"Straws are for drinking. Do I look like I am drinking?!"

Sense of Humor

Okay, I had taken the plug thingy out of the sink in the bathroom b/c it is broken and it inhibits the drainage of water. I bought a replacement one, but um, yeah it isn't the right size.
So we had an open drain in the bathroom, stupid I know.

I get up Thursday morning to find Aeden at the sink with a blue water bottle over the drain hole, filling the water bottle with water.

I asked what he is doing, he says getting the ball out of the drain. I look (under the water bottle btw) and sure enough one of his bouncy balls was just the right size.

After much wiggling, knife yeilding (no one was injured!!) and such the ball was extracted from the drain and the broken insert thing was placed back in. ;)

Fast forward to after school, Aeden is again bouncing his ball through the hallway. It makes a lovely, loud, echoy noise.

Then he stops and says, "Mommy the ball bounced into the toilet"

My heart stopped. I don't do toilets. I responded that he better stick his hand down there and get it then.

His response: "Just joking" {mad giggling}

Ugh! Who gave him that sense of humor, rotten child.
