Keatonisms, week of May 20th

Happy Keatonism Tuesday!!
*****

"My tummy is growling very hard!"

I need to give a little explanation about this one. If you've seen the Arbor Day Charlie Brown episode, Schroeder has to kiss Lucy when he hits a home run. We were watching the Blackhawks game, and Keaton was a bit confused. "When he hits a home run, does he have to go kiss him?"

Pretending his toy Snoopy is his son.
To me: "That means you're his grandma!"

"Is Jonathon Toews the king?"

"An octagon squirts ink."

"Why do our eyes have to have color?"

Anytime we drive more than 5 minutes in the car, Keaton asks if we are in a different state.

Watching people control traffic with batons: "Are they holding light sabers?"

We were eating Snickerdoodle bread. "How did they make it? They put stickers on it and noodles on it. Stickernoodle."

In downtown Chicago, checking out the Bean: "Why are we checking out the Boston bean?"

Keatonisms, week of May 13th

Happy Keatonism Tuesday!!
*****
Me: "Your nana is a neat lady."
K: "Amen!"

"Why do tic tacs carry diseases?" (ticks)

"Someday I'm going to grow fruits and vegetables and pumpkins and mashed potatoes."

Me: "What's your favorite toy?"
K: "My brothers."

Casey: "I see some hot pink play doh on the floor."
K: "It's not very hot."

My sister-in-law is 9 months pregnant, and we asked Nana De how she was feeling.
De: "Leslie is ready to deliver this baby."
K: "Why do they deliver it? It's not a package!"

Casey: "They are synonyms."
K: "They are cim-man-nims?"
Casey: "No, synonyms."
K: "M&Ms? Lem-in-nems?"

"I'm getting married today, to Kaelyn. I'm getting married at the airport. They have a special place for merriments."

Keatonisms week of May 6th

Keatonism Tuesday is upon us again! Hope you have a great one!

*****
"Does a wind breaker break wind?"

K: "Panda Thunder is on!"
Me: "...Kung Fu Panda?"

While riding in the car behind a FedEx truck:
K: "What does F-E-D-E-X spell?"
Me: "FedEx."
K: "Do they take people's presents and give them to other people?!? I don't like them!!"

"You're my mommy and you're the prettiest mommy that I have."

"I can't see things properly!"

Keaton had the Toys R Us ads and was making up a story for one of his brothers. "...and then Spider-Man made all the people in heaven alive again with his powers. (Turns page.) And then there were coupons."

"Mommy, we're not allowed to laugh in this store." (Red Mango)

About the group of 8th graders that I reprimanded last week for cussing loudly around the boys:  "My ears knowed that they were saying bad words, that's why my ears were off when that happened."

Only two this week!

Only two Keatonisms? Talk about an off week. Surely we'll make up for it next week. 😉
*****
To me: "You used to work but now you're retired." (He did get the 'tired' part right!)

K: "I wanna buy a limo. Maybe someday when I'm older, like when I'm eight."
Me: "Where would we keep it? We wouldn't have space in our garage."
K: "We would have to get a bigger house."

Belated Keatonisms

Happy May Day! Sorry for forgetting Keatonisms this Tuesday...it's been a busy week with the twins teething and walking everywhere. Never a dull moment around here!

*****
To Casey: "You're a mean parakeet." (?)

Running around in his underwear: "Now I am a Sumo wrestler!"

Me: "I ate a lot of hamburgers when you were in my tummy."
K: "Why? Why did you not eat baby food?  Because I was a baby."

Me: "The guy in front of us is going really slow!"
K: "Go around him."
Me: "I would, but that's against the law. I'd get a ticket."
K: "But there's no policemen around us! Just do it."
