Potty mouths and other funny things

I think my kids are funny. I laugh. But its usually when they are trying their hardest NOT to be funny. Like tonight, when we came in the house and there was a box of papers in the entryway, and Connor says, "What is all this crap over here?" It is really hard to explain why he shouldn't say that word while you are trying not to laugh. The same thing happens when they get mad about something and decide they are going to tell you about it. It's hilarious. Which makes me wonder how many times as a child, I got mad about something and my parents sat there with heads turned, hands covering up a smile, while I sat there fuming and pouting.
Either every parent does this, or there goes my mother of the year award!
To pay tribute to the amusing musings of my children, I started a little feature on the right called From the mouths of babes. I'll put funny quotes and thought-provoking questions there as they come up. So keep coming back! I promise I will post more often!

Jill,
How about the time Connor was upset that you were going to have a date with aaron and he said, "No date for you", like the Seinfeld soup nazi.
