Field Trip Report

Today Connor went on a field trip to a farm! This was his report after school today.

Dad: Connor! Did you have fun on your field trip?

Connor: Dad! I went to a farm! There was an owl. We had to be quiet, he was sleeping. There were apples. We made apple cider! I taste it.

Dad: Did you help make the cider?

Connor: Yeah! With a handle. I turned the wheel!

Dad: That sounds like fun!

Connor: There was a snake!

Dad (changing the topic from the snake): Who did you ride with on the bus? A teacher or one of your friends?

Connor: My friends. Abigail and Isa!

Dad: Are they your girlfriends?

Connor: Yeah.

Kids Say the Darndest Things

Today at a car dealership, Connor and Dad were sitting in the car while Daddy was outside looking at a car on the lot...

Connor: That looks like Auntie Jean's car!

Dad: No, that car is long and ugly! (Auntie Jean's isn't)

Connor: That's not being nice to the car, Dad.

Dad: Yes, you're right, I shouldn't have called it ugly.

Connor: Say sorry to the car, Dad.

Dad: I'm sorry car.

Connor: Thank you!

The Potty Report

Why is is that we have so many Potty Reports on our blog? Anyhoo...

Yesterday the potty downstairs got clogged (no, not from any of Connor's antics, the old fashioned way). So we had to get the plunger...only Connor calls it the "Funger." We definitely don't find anything fun or funny about using the Funger, but it is cute when he says it!

Later in the day, the other potty got clogged upstairs (again, not from Connor, the old fashioned way). From the top of the stairs, Dad heard "Dad! We need the Funger!!" Once Dad got upstairs he decided to quiz Connor on the appropriate use of the Funger, as sometimes it's really fun to find out what he's thinking about.

Dad (half afraid to hear the answer to this question): "Connor, what is a Funger used for?"
Connor: "The toilet!"
Dad: "Why do we use a Funger in the toilet, Connor?"
Connor: "When the poopies get stuck!"

Of course! How silly of me to ask.

Happy Labor Day everyone!
