1. "Canon, you can't hurt your sister!" (Not only CAN he hurt her, but when I say it, she is probably already crying.)
2. "Ohmigosh, Canon, did you spill your drink again?" Seeing as how I am already up getting towels, the only question stupider than this one is...
3. "Why do you keep spilling your drinks?"
4. "What are you doing!?" Nutting
5. "Canon! Get down right now. Do you want to fall and smash your brains out?" No, I bean tareful.
6. "We do NOT hit mommies. Mommies are for ...." uh-uh "What are mommies for?" uh-uh (muchness of tickling - have they even tried tickle torture over at Gitmo? I get great results with tickle torture.) "WHAT ARE MOMMIES FOR??!!!" (in a funny voice) hugs and tisses.
7. "Canon, are you poopy?" Even if he's walking like a cowboy, with shite leaking out of his diaper, and 3rd degree diaper rash burns on his bleeding bottom, fifty-fifty chance he says either, "No," or, "I not poopy, you poopy."
8. "Canon, do you want to [get dressed/change your clothes/eat whatever mom has fixed/sit on your bottom/sing for the nice folks/sit in your car seat/sit on the potty/stop screaming random Chinese sounding insanities]?" mm-mm/CHIN CHANE CHOON!
9. "Don't you dare wake up your sister!" (After he has already gone in, turned on the light, and shouted, "Sagers! Wake up!" Sagan does have that fun, fun, spinning rocking chair in her room though. Canon loves that chair.)
10. "Canon, if you do/don't do [x, y, and/or z], I am going to [tell you to/not to do x,y and/or z again, spank you, take away your TV/play dough/breathing privileges, and sigh a lot], sohelpmeBob, I will."
11."Where did you put [your shoes/my cell phone/the remote control/Milo kitty/some random tool daddy left lying around]?" Points randomly, Ha ha.
12. "Why is there a samurai sword in the vegetable drawer?"
13. "Can mommy give you a hair cut?" MM-MM!
14. "We don't eat our boogers." Oh, yes we do!
15. "You have to [wear shoes/put on pants/wear your jacket/eat first/be quiet/be nice/stop yelling/stop jumping on that]!" Oh, no I not.
16. "What the monkey-loving-crap happened to my make-up?!" I don't know, it wasn't me.
*Sometimes I write the title of my blog before I write the body and sometimes I'm too lazy to change the title afterwards. Titles are hard to think up, y'know. Plus, it's gotta be kind of eye catching, pull people in a little. Sixteen is such an awkward stupid number ... ten is much more manageable. Sorry for the false advertising. Think of it as 16 for the price of 10.

Cute Things Canon Says To Me:
- "Mommy, I need a huuug!" (He says this a dozen times a day; he has hug-emergencies.)
- "Where's Tie-tin (Crichton)?" He's still at school. "Where's daddy?" He's still at work. whining and sadness - Canon loves his family.
- "Little Einsteins and Rocket here!" (opens front door for them).
- "Oh boofoo boofoo momee, peas can I haf summa your soda?"
- "Tank you mama." (Because who wouldn't give in when he asks so nicely?)
- "Love you, mama."

8 Brilliant Bits of Inspiration:
3 is such a fun age! It believe that Cannon and my niece Elly may be a match made in heaven. She liks to "check on" (wake up) the baby and she is OBSESSED with the Little Einsteins. Let's get these two together ASAP.
Playdate-wise or arranged marriage-wise? I'm good either way, just checking for clarity.
Isn't it amazing the things you find yourself saying to your children?
Often it's things I never thought I'd say.... you know, things like "your brother is not a dog/toy".
The strangest thing ever heard at our house was when mommy said, (and on another occasion, another year, to a differt child it was said by Grandma Linda), "No thirds on brussels sprouts until you eat your tater tots!"
We have re-evaluated our policy since the above statement was issued.
Well, since we all live in North Carolina, it might be best to just go with the arranged marriage angle. You and my sister can become besties since you'll be sharing grandchildren. (just a warning..she can be kinda mean and she wont return any clothes she borrows from you!)
This made me giggle! :)
I've always told my kids that brussel sprouts are the candy of the garden and evidently they believe me. Never leftovers with brussel sprouts here either.
That is SOOOOOO cute!!!!!
