memorable Sid quotes

Tonight we watched Flushed Away before bed. Sid entertained me more then the movie did:

Sid- Is this a real story?

Me- No, it's pretend

Sid- Oh. Then its fiction mom.

...

This part is non-fiction though, you see?

me- Nnnnno? Why?

Sid- Well cause anyone can get flushed down a toilet.

(later)

Sid- Where are his kids mom?

Me- He doesn't have any yet. He's not married. He needs to find the right girl rat and marry her first.

Sid- I think that one is right. She will be a mom and then her belly gets fat.

(Thanks Sid.)

We made an offer on a house. Someone else did too. Now we just wait and see who made a better offer.

I hate waiting...
and moving.

Finding your own sense of humor

JR- knock, knock... Mom... knock, knock...

mom- Who's there?

...

JR- controller (he was holding a Wii controller in his hand)

mom- controller who?

JR- controller was in a tree! (for some reason all of his knock knock jokes end with in a tree, or on the roof)

mom- oh you are so silly!

JR- You never heard that one before?

mom- no... no definitely not.

He really wants to make people laugh, and does very often, someday it will actually be because his joke was funny.

The puzzling 'happy noise'

Both my children have something they refer to as their "happy noises". This noise of their sounds suspiciously like whining. I honestly can only tell the difference if I can see the look on their face. I can't figure out where they got the idea that this whiny, moaning, chirping thing they do has anything to do with the expression of joy....

Sometimes they copy each other so much that they create a norm with something that might be a social taboo.

I have thought a lot about this 'happy noise'. Where did it come from?
After serious thought, I think it comes from our dog (who btw cries more like a bird then a dog). I think they might think his crying is his 'happy noise'.

I really can't be sure what those little crazies are ever thinking though.
