When learning what year I was born…

“Wow mom! You’re old! But thats ok, you have a long life to live.

Well thank goodness.

Not only does he attempt to bring the jokes, he sometimes attempts slapstick physical comedy. Like tripping on purpose, over exaggerating moves, etc. So we’re at Disneyland and we had just met up with Nic and her family in Toontown. He had just posed for this picture:

See those “poles”? Obviously some are rubber and others…. aren’t. They are metal.

Well genius son of mine thought he was being funny and all I hear is *THUNK* with a sort of echo noise.

Yup. He slammed his head against the metal pole, thinking it was a rubber one. He stumbled back, shook his head, and said “oh oww. That hurt.” Then he laughed. HE. LAUGHED.

Add this to slamming his head onto a table and a metal garage door.

The knot was quite impressive the next day.

Parenting Pro Tip – Don’t let your kids use knives to open otter pops.

Now I have to say that he wasn’t in my care when this happened. He was with his grandma (not MY mom). His grandma, the NURSE. The details provided to me are hazy. Except he just advised Anthony on skype that the knife was THIS BIG. (Think bigger than my head.)(I’m hoping that was an exaggeration.) Most importantly, he didn’t need stitches.

He did however, really enjoy the plastic bag I had to put over his hand to take a shower.

Hey you can see the shadow of the knot here. Nice.

Yeah, he found the bag hysterical.

Boys. I don’t know how I’ve made it this far. They are CRAZY.
