This started as stuff Evie has said that I've remembered to write down. If only I had started sooner. I've missed things like "I almost agot", "Mmmmm, goot", "Farshfellows are yummy, yummy, yummy", "All the people", "Hubba, Hubba, Hubba", "Baa Baa Boo", "Cowabunga, Dude!", "A Lion Guard Bliund Bag", "I do it", "Oh, yaaaah", "I'm a Haidband Haid", "Dey Cazzy". As of 2017, we've added stuff Andy says, too. I sometimes forget to post it before I've forgotten what they said or did so this is by no means all the funny things that have happened. And you also don't get to see the looks on their faces, the tone of voice they used or the hand gestures that go along with it. I wish I'd had something like this for my kids!
We watched Fred Astaire dance to Puttin’ On the Ritz this morning. The song was stuck in my head and I doo-di-dooted it to the point where you would say ‘Puttin’ On The Ritz’ and was trying to get Evie to say it. At one point I told her she was sposta say it, you know, like when we do I Lost My Tractor. So I doo-di-dooted one more time, got to the pivotal moment, pointed to her and she said:
“I lost my tractor!”
and started cracking up knowing that she’d made a really funny joke.
