jacob and jenna-isms
today we were at sam’s club…and i was examining some giant pork tenderloins. they were only $1.97 a pound, and i was trying to decide if i wanted to buy one or not.
jake says, “mom! how do you cook pork lion anyway?” (no, that is NOT a typo.)
me: “pork lion?”
jake: yeah, pork lion. that’s what these are called.
me: no they aren’t. they are PORK LOIN.
jake: oh. well, i like pork lion better. that’s what i call it.
he then proceeded to talk about pork lion for the next ten minutes. how do i cook pork lion??
on new years eve, we were all getting ready to go over to bridge’s house for a night of debauchery food and games. paul had just gotten out of the shower and was singing in the bathroom. he was just being a dork…he knew i could hear him. jenna laughed and said, “mom, you have a good husband.”
jenna told her grandma, her very mormon grandma, on christmas day that “my mom lets me drink coffee ALL THE TIME.”
then jake chimes in, “yeah, she does. we drink it every weekend!!”
that is SOOO not true. thanks, jenna. you have a giant mouth. and jake, you are no help.
jenna: “mom, would you like a mountain dew?”
me: “why yes, yes i would.”
jenna: coming right up.
she brings it in and then stands there and waits for me to open it. when i don’t right away she says, “moooom. i wanted a drink of that!!”
very generous of her, dontcha think??
Stumble it!
LOL! That is hilarious! Pork Lion! Coffee! yeah.. that what ever over energized child needs!!!!
I’m sure your M.I.L was dying out of pure shock!
Zoey does the same thing with my Mt. Dew’s.. she too asks if I want a dew. go gets it and waits for me to Crack it open. Fully expecting me to share.( yes,I let my kids steal sips of my dew…..I make no apologies.)
Your kids are hilarious! oh, and I’m glad you have a cute husband.
What I would pay to be a fly on the wall to hear Paul singing! You truly DO have a good husband. And kids. Maybe because you bring out that in them being a good wife and mom? Maybe they have heard you refer to Mt. Dew as your coffee? The things kids come up with…
be glad you are documenting all this, you can use it when they are 16 and want to borrow the car!
Funny stuff.
So after you’re done teaching your son about pork lion, feel free to send me that roasted tomato soup recipe you mentioned. I’d love to try it!
Make sure to sear the pork lion immediately after removing the mane.
Yo’ chillins are awesome. May I borrow them for parties?
