Grant Funnies

Grant was a hoot this weekend. First of all, I REALLY wish I had pictures of him dancing at the school dance on Friday. SO SO SO funny! He did bring two balloons home from the dance. He was feeling artsy on Saturday morning after the dance.

Meet Harry Popper and Pinky:




Grant says that they are in love and like to kiss alot - especially on Valentine's Day. And, can we just stop for a moment and realize how adorable, smart, witty and clever he is that he gave the boy balloon round spectacles and named him "Harry Popper" all on his own. I know I am his mother and therefore biased but I'm just gonna say that I think it is awfully clever for a five year old to come up with that kind of play on words.

In a more disturbing turn of events...Saturday morning found us sleeping in late and Grant finally came in and crawled in the bed. He was chatting with mom and dad when he remembered that it was Valentine's Day. Rich asked him if he knew what Valentine's Day was about. Grant said, "yes. it is when you pull your pants down and spread your love around the whole world." WTH? WHO the heck are this kid's parents? They must be some seriously effed-up people. I'm just sayin.

HAAAAAAAAAA!!! Where did he learn that pants thing? The balloons are very clever. I agree that is a smart, witty play on words! (How old is he?)

I like your label, "Is this a trashy blog or what?"

Heh. YES. Yes it is.

Hahahahaha! Yes, Grant is clever. Perhaps an older brother explained V-day to him? :)

Also, HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR KITCHEN FLOOR SO CLEAN??

LOL . . . "Harry Popper" definitiely shows extraordinary intelligence, not to mention a great sense of humor, and trust me, I am totally objective!

And I'll tell you what kind of parent he's got. Back when his mother was about his age, maybe a little younger, she was displaying her dramatic abilities to her Aunt Carol. "Act like you're happy," said Aunt Carol. Mary Beth smiled. She came up with a long sad face in response to "Act like you're sad." Then Aunt Carol said, "Act like Prince Charming just walked into the room!" The 4-year-old Mary Beth leaped to her feet, pulled her nightgown up over her head and danced around to the great amusement of a totally astounded and speechless Aunt Carol! LIke mother, like son, right? :)
