Brooksisms

"Mom, wouldn't it be cool it Justin Beiber was my big brother?"

"Mom, PLEASE tell me we're not going to the fabric store!"

His show and tell wouldn't fit into his backpack so he told me "We need to get some GLAD forceflex!"

I was asking Brooks what he wanted Breakfast and he says "How many calories are in oatmeal?" (He has been listening to my Mom ha)

"My bike speaks spanish!"

He wanted to use our toothpaste instead of his because "it fights cavities for 7 hours!"

Brooks, what's 1/2 of 5? "Fi.." You're right :) That is half of five!

He told me that before he graduates pre-school he needs to ask Gracie to Marry him when they get big. They are going to kiss and have two kids one boy and one girl ( Rhino & Ryder) :)

He came in the house crying a little and talking to himself. I heard him say "I'm so ashamed of myself" :( I asked him what he was so sad about "I'm so ashamed of myself, I killed a potato bug" (He accidentally smashed it with a shovel that he was trying to pick it up with)

"I need more attention!"

"I wish that I could go up in the sky and plant some candy and then it would rain candy. And it would rain once a day

he heard an ad on the radio that said, kids get in free... He says "Hear that, I get in free. That means I can just go by myself.

"Ew this one tastes like cafe rio" (we were eating jelly beans)

"I'm not going to discuss this right now"

On a walk: remember when summer met us right here (as if we found summertime in that exact spot before)

"is this my baby life?" (when the show teen mom came on tv)

"I'm gonna go outside and practice my skills"

I had gotten Brooks some nice dress shoes for my Grandpas funeral and when I put then on him he said "

Seriously mom, high heels!?"

"I didn't go to karate but I still know it"

I thought I'd throw in some pics of the kiddos too ;)

My little man

As many of you know, Brooks LOVES the water! He loves it so much that he begs me to do the dishes. The kid stood there for almost an hour washing the dishes :) Another day he cried because he had to wait until tomorrow to do the dishes and then first thing when he woke up he asked me about doing them. It was funny too because as soon as he turned on the water he says " Oh I shouldn't do the dishes without going potty first" and ran to the bathroom :) I have to monitor him when he washes his hands after going potty because he'll sit and play with the soap and water. He can not wait for summer to get here. He went outside the other day and said Mom look it's sunny we can get the sprinklers out! It's been a while since I've posted some quotes so I think I'll do that now ...

Maybe next time we can have candy for dinner!
Mom don't worry about me eatin, I already had some bacon.
(He'll come up with any excuse to not have to sit down and eat!)

He was playing with a gun I had given to him and he said "You gave this to me, yeah you give me everything I want. But not Santa, he didn't give me what I wanted for Christmas." He didn't? "No he gave me different stuff"

"Don't spill it or Mom will be furious"

"To make hot chocolate, you have to speed up the water"

I asked Brooks if he knew how much I love him and he said "yep" I said good and don't you ever forget it, then he told me "Ok, but if I get a bump on my head that means I lost my memory"

We were watching TV in the living room and Brooks went to the potty, Brandon heard him fart and was giving him a bad time and said "Woah what was that?" "It was just a toot Dad, yeah toots can happen sometimes!"

"Witches put you in castles"

Lately he's always saying "We have a very serious problem" and "Oh, you were right, my mistake"

and he'll say "I can't stop laughing" whenever you try talking to him about something he doesn't want to talk about...like getting ready for bed or eating dinner

All of his grandparents and his aunt and uncle went to Vegas for Nascar. Well he heard someone on the radio say Vegas and he goes "Mom, he said Vegas! Yeah, that's where Nascar lives"

We were at dinner with my parents and this lady at the table next to us was cracking up and Brooks giggled and said "She laughed like a witch" I couldn't hold in my laugh and my Mom was dying , I'm pretty sure the lady heard him so I felt kinda bad but it was too funny

"Whoa Mom your belly is getting REALLY big!"
How many are you Mom?" 25... "Whoa...that's a lot!"

Brandon had a day off and was going to take him to Chuck e cheese and he says "Dad, didn't you know what you can do with a Chuck e Cheese report card"

And I love how every time we get out of the car he has to look at it and say "We really need to go to the car wash"

One of his toys was broken and he tells me "We need an electrician who can fix this! Mom, who's an electrician...he's big and he says he's the boss?"

"When baby gets as big as you, she can wear perfume"

GG asked him if he wanted to see the quail in her backyard and he said "Yeah, but Grandma I don't have my gun"

"Poo starts with P, that's funny huh"

Before bed I always tell him I'll see you in my dreams and one morning he woke up and said "Sorry Mom I didn't dream about anything last night"

Chickens come from eggs?

I'm not sure what happened to my last post on Brooks' quotes :(
But here are some more and I'll put up the ones that I can remember were on the last one too.

We were at grandma's for Sunday dinner and she had prepared some rotisserie chickens, he looked at them and didn't want to eat them because they looked like chickens(He takes after his mother) He told grandma that he wanted eggs instead. She told him didn't you know this is just an egg all grown up to a chicken? He laughed and said "That would be funny if eggs grew into chickens" We were all laughing she asked him where do you think chickens come from "The farm!" He made sure to tell her he just wanted regular eggs, not the kind that grow chickens :)
I would explain it to him but I don't know if he'll eat anything if he knows he's eating animals

I asked Brooks: Do you know how much I love you? He smiled and nodded yes. Don't ever forget it I told him ."Ok but if I get a bump on my head then that means I lost my memory"

"To make hot chocolate you have to speed up the water"

"Don't spill it or Mom will be furious"

Brooks was playing with a gun I had gotten him and he said "you got this for me" I sure did "Yeah you give me everything I want. But not Santa. He didn't give me what I wanted for Christmas" He didn't? "No he got me different stuff"

"Maybe next time we can have candy for dinner"

Brooks' grandpa got him a toy that happened to be orange, He looked at his grandpa and said "I don't like orange, next time you get me something it needs to be green" Little Brat ha

I think he might watch too much TV ha He asked me if we could get a touch and brush for our bathroom to dispense our toothpaste. He made a point to say "Roll and press, now you're bathroom's all a mess, but with touch and brush you just put your toothbrush in and it's nice and clean"

The commercial came on for 'my baby can read' Brooks said " Mom those kids can say the words on those cards, yeah cuz they have big brains. it goes in their ears and then goes up and stops right here" (pointing at his brain)

"I think I broke my arm from all that wind" ?? ha

If you remember back when Brooks colored all over the walls and dishwasher etc.. with permanent marker he noticed a little art he had put on the fridge. As I was cleaning he sprayed the Windex on it and started to scrub it.. he yelled "Look Mom, it's working! It's stain refighter"

"Mom, I sure like it when you're home!" :) Made my heart very happy, I like it when I'm home with him too!!

I poured brooks a drink and he said "oh yummy orange juice" I asked him what color it was and he said "yellow" :)

We pulled up to the park and Brooks got really excited. As we were getting out of the car he said "Everybody here is gonna want to play with me, yeah everyone in this town is gonna be my friend" :) Sadly it was still a little nippy out and no one else was at the park

"I like girls, I hate mans"

"Mom, I'm getting so tired! I'm gonna finish this drink and then I'm going to bed"

I picked Brooks up from the sitters and he asked.. "What are we gonna do now?" Whatever you wanna do ..He smiled and said " Oooh make a cake? lets put sprinkles on it"

"I'm happy cuz you're layin down watching the show with me" :) Proof it's the little things that count

"Mom, can I play with your phone?" No hunny I just wrote a message and I'm waiting for them to write me back "A message? like with a pencil?" I had to explain how I could write a message and send it to someone elses phone and they would read it and write me back and send it to my phone...he thought it was pretty neat

Are you ready for school bud? "I'm bored of school" lol get used to it kid :)

Brooks' Grandma told him he had nice shoes "They're not shoes, they're boots!"

I got some spicy chicken nuggets at Wendy's and got Brooks a kids meal with nuggets. He took a bite (of his regular/not spicy nuggets) and said "Mom these are SO spicy! I can't even believe it"

another time we got some chik-fil-a nuggets and Brooks asked me "Did you get these from Wendy's ? Oh cuz they're spicy"

It was a cloudy day and we were on our way to the sitters when owl city's song Hot air balloon came on Brooks said "This song scares the clouds away! cuz it's happy" I thought it was pretty cute

"Mom are we in space? Is this whole world in space?" How do you explain space to a child anyhow ha I probably only confused him :)

I was making dinner and Brooks was watching toons, apparently king of the hill had come on he came in to me and said "That show's way stupid" haha

"My nose is hot Mom" Why hun? "Cuz I've been pickin it"

"Lucky I didn't crack open!" He tripped on the stairs

Brooks woke up one morning and giggled "I woke up in my pajama's isn't that funny"
I'm not sure what he was expecting to wake up in...

"This is yummy soup! and even it's good for your body"

I was in the tub when one of Brandon's friends came over. Brooks said "Don't let your friend see Mommy naked in the tub, cuz then he will want to take her home with him"

Brooks was eating a hot dog and Brandon asked him how his puppy was tasting Brooks said "We don't eat animals! They have blood in them" So he asked him what he thought he was eating and Brooks replied "We just eat regular food"

"Mom it's ok if we make a mess cuz Santa won't come again until next year"

"I'm a cowboy, I can rope stuff up!" He was using my belt as a lasso

Brandon likes to give Brooks a hard time and tease him. Brooks was getting really mad so I told him to just ignore him that he was just being silly and Brooks told me "I wished I didn't have ears! But I do so I have to listen to him"

Brooks was making funny noises with his nose in the back seat of the car, since I was driving I couldn't look back so I asked him what he was doing "Gonna eat a booger" he said

I asked Brooks to hurry because I was going to be late and he told me "That's your problem, not mine"

"Mom, I'm really getting a fat belly like yours!"

Taking it all in

I've been thinking, with this new baby coming. How quickly time really passes! It's so crazy to think Brooks is really as big as he is! 3 years have FLOWN by! I remember worrying that he wasn't talking and thinking about speech therapy. Which looking back was crazy since he speaks so clearly and is so bright and amazes me with almost everything he thinks about and says! I have somewhat been going through the motions the past couple years and not really enjoying the things that make me happy. Like genuinely taking the time to take it all in and just enjoy things! I've been a little numb and sad and I don't want to feel like that anymore and I especially don't want to look back and miss enjoying my babies while they were babies! And I also want to make sure I remember the little things that made me laugh, so here are more quotes and things from Brooks. I hope you enjoy them too!

Right after Christmas Brooks told me "Mom, it's OK if we make a mess. Cuz Santa won't come again til next year!"

"Try one of these, it'll make you happy" (I had been crying and Brooks offered me a gummy bear :) it helped...a lot)

My grandma told him he had some pretty cool shoes and he replied "They're not shoes, they're boots!"

We had been to the dentist and when we got home he kept looking at the ceiling... "Mom, we should put some pictures up there so our house would be cooler!"

"I'm not having this conversation anymore!" (Brandon was trying to tell him not to do something)

In pre-school he was learning the months of the year and according to him it's "Cemetery, February, March....."

Brandon watched Van Helsing and a few days later Brooks was telling me "Mom, you know that movie with the flying bat ladies? Yeah Jesus made that movie." ..........Haha um ?

" Mom I'm gonna move our hose next to Autumn's. Yeah cuz I'm sick of that spot"

I was in the tub and Brandon's friend came over, he told Brandon "Don't let your friend see Mommy in the bathtub naked, cuz then he'll want to take her home to his house"

"This song is making my brain come out, can you change it"

Brooks had a chocolate snack that his grandma gave him, but I didn't want him to eat it in the car because it melts and gets all over him and the car and he looked so sad and said "but MOM I can't wait to taste it!"

I picked Brooks up from school and he told me "Miss Denise gave me a gummy bear but I'm a lot a hungry!"

"We're gonna be like Penguins, cuz they live in the freezing cold"

"Mom I'm really getting a fat belly like yours"

I told Brooks to please hurry because we were running late "That's not my problem, it's yours"

We were driving and he was making these funny noises with his nose, I looked back and asked him what he was doing "Gonna eat a booger"

Brandon has a tendency to tease Brooks and he was giving him a hard time about something. I told Brooks to just not listen to him that Daddy was just being silly and Brooks says "I wished I didn't have ears! But I do so I have to listen to him"

He was playing with my belt and says "I'm a cowboy and I can rope stuff up"

We were eating hot dogs and Brandon asked Brooks how his puppy was tasting "We don't eat animals! They have blood in them!" what do you think you're eating then he asked? "It's just regular food"

"This is yummy soup! And even it's good for your body"

"I woke up in my pajama's, isn't that funny"

"Lucky I didn't crack open!" He tripped on the stairs

"My nose is hot" why? I asked him "Cuz I've been picking it"

I was making dinner and he had been watchin toons, he came in and says "Mom that show's way stupid!" I guess his show got over and King of the Hill came on haha

"Mom, are we in space? is this whole world in space?"

I ordered some spicy chicken nuggets at Wendy's and got him a kids meal with regular chicken nuggets. After he ate one he says "Mom, these are so spicy!! I can't even believe it!" (He wasn't eating the spicy ones)

I picked him up from his grandma's when I got off work and he asked me what we were gonna do now, I said whatever you wanna do. He smiled and said "Make a cake?" Absolutely I said "let's put sprinkles on it" :)

"I'm getting so tired! I'm gonna finish this drink and then I'm going to bed"

"Mom I like girls, I hate mans! I like girls"

Sincerely, Brooks

More quotes from Brooks himself:

As he takes the candy out of his mouth so it's covered in saliva; "It's good!! Wanna taste a bite?"

Just before heading out the door " Mommy...You don't have make-up on!"

"I'm empty!" While trying to get him to pee before bed

When his grandmother was putting him in the bath "Mommy's privates are different than mine"

In the car on the way home it was dark and I looked back at him and he had something all over his face and his was rubbing it everywhere it looked like it could be chocolate or something when I asked him what it was he said "Boogers" Haha he had a bloody nose and was smearing it all over his face!! Sick but I couldn't help but laugh

At Peterson's grocery store he asked if he could get some banana's, we were looking in the produce section and couldn't find them I asked him " Where do you thin they are?" He told me "Oh I think they're at Walmart! We shoud've gone there!"

"Mommy she wears High heels like you!"

After being told he can not have bend-a-roos cuz they're for bigger kids "Here hold this....see I'm big! I slept for a long time and got big so now I can have bendaroos!"

Hurry up dude! "I am but I'm a slow poke!"

I had a friend over and told him that he needed to be on his best behavior until he left! " I can't wait for your friend to leave!"

I had asked him what he wanted to be for Halloween, he said he wanted to be a ghost...OK But wouldn't you rather be something cooler like a monster or vampire or dinosaur? "Yeah or a Lady Bug!"

"I had a big tiger in my dream and it was freakin me out! "
"It freaked all the bad words outta me!"

What makes you happy? "When someone doesn't take a toy out of my hand!"

When I picked him up for pre-school one day he was looking extra dapper and I told him you sure look handsome, he says " That's my job"

"That slurpee freezes my head!"

He wanted to wear his boots without socks and I told him that it would make his feet stink and he says to me" And the we'll go to grandma's and when I take my boots off they'll say..what the heck is that? and I'll say.. that's my toes"

What do you know about ghosts? "They're smooth and they don't walk on the ground and they have mean naughty eyes!"

After seeing an almost due pregnant friend of mine "She had a baby in her belly and it's gonna fall out at any time!"

"It's not just chocolate, it's bliss"

And of coarse more to come :) Hope you enjoyed them!

Funny Kid

I keep a list of funny or cute things Brooks says now, so I can post them. I'll keep them short and sweet :) Here goes....

The mean parent

Brooks wanted to go outside and I told him that he needed to eat his lunch 1st. he looked at me with those big blue eyes and said "Only Daddy's are supposed to be mean!" I giggled and thought poor Brandon! I'm too soft on this kid, but I suppose he is right. Usually Daddy's are the mean one's, Mom's usually take the easy road and lets Dad deal with the punishing. I'd like to think that we take equal part but I know for a fact that I am a little softer on him!

The insult

Brandon was doing his hair when Brooks told him "Daddy you're hair gel stinks!" Brandon must have looked at him funny because then Brooks said "was that rude?"

The Lyrics

We were listening to one of my favorite songs (I need you, By Tim McGraw and Faith Hill) One of the lines is: I need you like Uncle Joe needs the rain. Brooks asked me "Who's uncle Joe? and what does he need the rain for?" It got me thinking..what does he think the lyrics mean in half the songs we listen to :) I explained that Uncle Joe was probably a Farmer and he needs the rain for his gardens to grow, He said "OH....Do I need the rain to grow?"


The drive-thru

We pulled up to the drive thru at Wendy's and the Lady asks for our order. I was about to tell her what we wanted when Brooks yells from the back seat " Can I just get a dog" Like it was a drive thru animal shelter ha!

My many faces

I tend to make some crazy faces now and then especially when I sing in the car, We were jammin' out to a great song and I looked back at Brooks and he looked at me funny and said "Why you makin that face?" It made me laugh

A questionable good time

We were on our way to lunch with my Mom when Brooks asked me "Do you think this is gonna be fun?" Not sure how much fun it really was for him but it was funny that he asked me that

Loves for a stranger

Brooks is extremely tender hearted! We were at the grocery store and a little girl was crying. He asks "Why is she crying Mommy?...I don't know sweetheart? "Does she need a hug?" what a sweet little boy :)

Embarrassing Poo Face

I picked Brooks up from his grandma's and he was just getting a treat for going potty. Grandma said Tell Mommy what you did for your treat! "I went Poo like this" --he shows me his poo face. I said Oh really! Good job! Brooks then says yeah... Like you did last night you went like this--again with the poo face (Just for the record I don't make a poo face ha) How embarrassing! :)

Strange Dream

Last night Brooks had a dream about an earthquake, which I thought was rather strange. Seeing as how he wouldn't know what an earthquake was. The 1st thing he said when he woke up was
" The ground bumped at Grandma Shell's!" he continued on about how the ground cracked and broke and then it opened up and talked to him. As all dreams it was strange :) I wanted to know what it said to him but he couldn't remember.
