Random Gabe moments...

Me: "Hey Gabe? How'd you get so cute?"
Gabe: "Um, Jesus just made me that way."
------------------------------------------
Me: "Why are you pooping so much today?"
Gabe: "Because it's summer time."
Me: "Oh? You have to poop more in the summer time?"
Gabe "Yeah. Because summer time makes you poop."
---------------------------------------------------
We told Gabe to go sit on time out (for something I don't remember)
Gabe: "If I sit on time out for a long, long time, then I will get smaller and smaller and then the kitty will come and take me and eat me. Do you want that to happen??? Do you!!???"
(This was genuine concern - he was like yelling it- totally believing it would happen)
-------------------------------------------------
Gabe (in a deep voice, imitating me? I don't know) "Hey daddy, I got a surprise for you. Caleb's poopy."
------------------
Had to add this one from yesterday:
Gabe: "Tell me a story of when I was a baby."
(I tell him about the night he was born - again - he loves to hear this.)
Then he asks: "Then I came out of your tummy?"
Me: "Yup!" (he's never needed more info than that.)
Gabe: "But where did I come out?"
Me (looking at Josh) "Uh...." (I debate telling him my belly button, but decide not to lie. I won't tell you what exactly I said but even I'll admit it sounded horrible. I looked at Josh after and said, "Was that a good answer?" and he said, "Uh...nnnnoo.")
Gabe crinkles up his nose and goes: "That's the cwaziest thing I ever hweard!!!"
(Wait till he asks HOW the baby gets there.... I'll leave that one to dad.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gabe (to Josh): "I tink God made you a person and a bear."
Josh: "Why do you say that?"
Gabe: "Cause your back has fur on it."

Yesterday when I was exercising in the living room (an unusual occurence) Gabe said to me:
"Why are you doing that?"
Me: "So I can lose my belly."
Gabe: "Mom! If you do that then the baby can't grow in there anymore!"
(So, had he thought there WAS one in there?!)

and here's a picture.... "like father like son"

Random Caleb moments:
Putting Caleb to bed one night, and giving him all his stuffed animals....
Caleb: "bonk-ee! bonk-ee!"
Me (confused): "Blankie? You want your blankie?"
Caleb: "No! Bonk-ee!"
Me: "Barney?"
Caleb: "Bonk-ee!" (then pauses a minute and goes) "Bonk-ee! Ooh ooh, aahh aahh!!"
Me: "Oh! MONKEY!"
Caleb: "Uh-huh, uh- huh!"
(Good thing he's smart enough to get his point acoss a different way!)
