My kid's almost 4 so I got plenty... I was teaching him to pee, so I had him watching me pee and when the water got all frothy he looked up at me with awe in his eyes and said "Daddy? You have bubbles in your winky?" And then when he started peeing he wanted it to be a group activity and would say "Daddy, let's go make bubbles together" Edit: Also he decided that his name is now "First Middle Last Star Wars" and that all superheros share a middle and last name with him. Wolverine Middle Last. Thor Middle Last. Silver Surfer Middle Last. omnibobb has a new favorite as of 21:58 on Nov 4, 2013 |

My son doesn't understand the difference in beating someone (like in a race) and beating them up. This leads to a lot of weird looks when he finishes his dinner before the baby and says loudly "I beat Bailee up!"

Lizard Wizard posted:This is probably cheating as there were no words involved, but one day while I was pushing carts at Wal-Mart, there was this Indian (I believe) baby just flipping people off left and right and looking pleased as hell with himself. I stopped, staring for a moment, and the baby straight up shot me a double deuce. Ugh, cool babies rock. I worked in a military clinic and was walking through a waiting area and there was a toddler chilling against a pillar and wearing sun glases. There was no immidiate parent around, but plenty of people in the waiting area so I figured this kid was being supervised. As I walked past I waved at the kid and he gave me a thumbs up.

All week long my son (3) has been whining about not wanting to go to school. He's had a mild cold but nothing worth keeping him home for. I had to take a half day at work today already for errands and a dogs medical appointment so I decided to make it a full day and let him stay home with me. He flipped his poo poo and threw a tantrum about how he had to go to school today because it's show and tell day.

We were at a restaurant and my som dropped his fork and grabbed mine out of my hand and said "haha got your fork." Then took a bite, then looked at my wife and said "daddy doesnt have his fork anymore" and then took another bite. My wife's airman is a cutie and our regular babysitter. She watched our kids all day while we were moving. When we came home, my son asked us if Ms. Jessica could come live with us. I told him no, she'd have no where to sleep. He said she could share his bed.

The other day, while my wife was getting my kids ready, I gathered up all the clothes off the floor and threw them into the washing machine and then went about helping her with them. About 10 minutes later, we go to get their jackets on and we can't find my daughters heavy jacket. We looked around the house for at least 15 minutes. I told the kids who ever finds it gets a high five. Eventually, my wife found the jacket in the washing machine and tosses it to me to put on the baby. My son, who is almost 4, saw my wife throw it but just went with me finding it and he got real excited that I found it and was giving me high fives and telling my wife how "daddy found it!" My wife, of course, protests since she was the one who found it, but nope, he was all about daddy finding it and I sided with him. It got to the point he was following my wife around jumping up and down and yelling "Cheers for daddy! Cheers for daddy!"

Esser-Z posted:As a child, I liked to give myself new names. I was also a massive fan of construction equipment. This led to me refusing to listen to my parents unless they called me whatever vehicle--or long string of vehicles, in order--I was currently calling myself. My son decided to add "Star Wars" to his last name. If you ask him his name it's "Bobby Middle Last Star Wars" He also does the name calling thing but it's with superheros. One time we were grocery shopping and he insisted on wearing his Batman pajamas and I was wearing a Spider-Man shirt and my wife was wearing a Superman shirt. So I had to say things like "Batman, you better put that down and go see Superman or I'm going to be mad." Or my wife would say, "Spider-Man's gonna spank you Batman if you don't behave."

The other day, my kid found some dog pee with his foot. He freaked out about it being yucky and I cleaned him off. The next day he went to get his chair for his little table and started freaking out about stepping in pee again. I went over and looked and there was no pee so I showed him there was no pee and he was freaking out over nothing. He looks at the floor and then back at me and says "it was ghost pee daddy!"

It's a teachable moment (albeit an awkward teachable moment), not something to get all pissy about dwarf family from the past! We were in line at a crafts store with my mom and the lady in front of us has one of those walker/chair thingies. My son asks me why she gets to have a chair and he doesn't. I explained that sometimes people need to rest more when they are out and about. He went up to her and asked her about it and she let him sit on it and wheeled him around a bit.

My kid just had his fourth birthday and one of his friends gave him a 10 dollar bill. I took him to the store to pick out and buy a toy - the first time with his own money! What a big boy he is! As we were riding home and he was playing with his toy, he asked what happened to his dollar bill. I told him he gave it to the cashier so he could get the toy. He then asked "Well, when is she going to give me my money back?" If only it worked that way...

When my kid discovered the difference between boys and girls, he asked a lot of questions. "Do you have a winky?" "Yep" "Does Bailee have a winky?" "Nope" "Does mommy have a winky?" "Nope" "Does Michael have a winky?" "Yep" "Does Amber have a winky?" "Nope" "Does Aunt Marcy have a winky?" "Nope" "Does Uncle Dallas have a winky?" "Nope"

Subjunctive posted:Wife, to 4-yo daughter: "Remember, if you don't cooperate you won't get a cookie." My wife is in the military and has been gone for a couple of months now. When she first left I had a conversation with my son about how he needs to be my big boy helper and listen good and help with the baby and all that stuff. He's been kind of having attachment issues so he's been sleeping in my bed and says that Zen Aku (a bad guy from Power Rangers) is in his room and he can't sleep in there. So for the first month-ish any time he was acting up I'd say something like "hey, is that how my big boy helper acts? Do I need to make Bailee my big girl helper instead?" And he'd straighten up and do what I asked. Eventually though, that wasn't working anymore and he was saying that he didn't want to be my big boy helper anymore, so I told him that only big boy helpers got to sleep in my bed and if he wasn't my big boy helper then he'd need to sleep in his own room. Eventually, that stopped working too. So one day I told him if he wasn't good he'd have to sleep in his own bed and he goes "its ok. i like zen aku more than you now"

I was talking to my sons friends mother to plan a sleepover for the boys. As I was picking up my son from daycare, I was talking to the other boy and asking him if he was excited and telling him the fun stuff we were planning. At some point in the conversation, I mentioned his mom (they are Puerto Rican), and this other kid comes over and pulls on my pants leg. "Um, Bobby's dad?" "Yeah, buddy? And he leaned in and whispered to me like it was a big, dark secret, "Arthurs moms face is brown."

Tea Bone posted:Yesterday I saw a child (looked to be about 4 or 5), walking with his Mum. The kid tripped over and fell on the floor. He picked himself up and started crying. Through his tears he looked up at his Mum with pure anger and and shouted "What did you do that for?". That cracked me up, the idea that in this little kid's mind it's far more likely that a parent would trip him over on hard pavement for shits and gigs, than it is he'd just trip over his own feet. My son used to do this all the time. Like he'd spill his drink as he was toddling around and forget he did it or not realize it and get mad at us for drinking it.

My son has weird issues with peeing himself. I think it boils down to sometimes hes just having fun and has no time for a potty break. The other day i was playing with his younger sister, picking her up and making dumb noises, whatever. He runs up to is us yelling "i want to play. And i dont smell like pee!" And that is how i knew, he did in fact smell like pee.

I think my son has been holding in his pee until I'm pooping cause he knows I'll tell him to go in the backyard. After a week or so of this, I finish up and head outside and not only is he peeing in the grass, but my 2 year old daughter has her pants down and figured out how to push her lady bits together and is arcing some pee into the grass too.

We once had one of my wife's coworkers babysit our kids and this lady is really, really pretty. We were moving from off base housing to on base and I had turned on the internet the day before and brought over stuff so she and the kids could watch Netflix. After a long day of moving we come to the new home and the babysitter is getting ready to leave. Son: can Ms Jessica live with us? Me: no buddy she has to go back to her dorm room. Son: please daddy? I really want ms jessica to stay! Me: no buddy, she has no where to sleep here. Son: she can sleep in my bed with me daddy. Homeboy has good taste.

I've been dating this girl for about 2 months now and she has a son who is 5. She has a friend (who I've known for a while as well) who has an 8 year old and a 4 year old so all the kids hang out. The 8 year old very obviously has a crush on my girlfriend and is always trying to muscle me out of the picture. I went over to her house and the kids were all playing and then we went out to pizza for dinner. After we finished the pizza (we are still at the pizza place) he says "Bob, are you leaving now?" I go "No bro, I'm gonna buy you all ice cream!" So after ice cream we are walking back into the house and he looks at her "Bob is leaving now right?" and about an hour later when I did leave he walked me out and made sure to lock the door behind me. Earlier this week we took them to Chuck E Cheese for her sons birthday, so I go to her house and I grab the keys to her car (it has all the car seats in it). He didn't see that I had the keys so as they are all walking to the car he yells out "shot gun i get to sit next to [her name]!" She tells him that I'm driving and he pouts and says that he doesn't want to sit next to me. After Chuck E Cheese I take them to the comic book store to buy them all a comic, while I'm checking out, she takes them out to get them all buckled and he asks her if I was staying there and if he could sit up front with her.
