Recent Jokes That I Did Not Find Amusing- AT ALL

Mason: "Mommy, Mommy. That's a bat.......tery under the radiator."

Wesley: "AAAAH."
Me: "What?"
Wesley: "There's a ghost in the bathroom." (while smiling)
Me: "That's not funny".
Wesley: "Why didn't you like my joke?"

Me to boys: "Did you guys open that door and point the fan at the spare bed?"
Boys: "No. We don't know who did that."
a few minutes later.....
Me to Levi: "Did you go in the attic?"
Levi: "Yeah."
Me: "Did you open the spare room door and point the fan at the bed?"
Levi: "Yes. What? Did you think the ghost wanted cooled off?"

Maybe they are trying to make me less scared by making jokes, but it's not working.

Balls

A few nights ago we were talking about how food dye is bad for you. I was telling Levi that I remembered people talking about how yellow #5 could make your testicles shrink. Mason asked "What are testicles?". I said "The balls next to your weewee". Mason and Wesley looked at each other. Wesley did his nose scrunch smile and Mason did his little sly smile and at the exact same moment they both said "Oh we just call those balls" and started the hysterical laughter. I'm sure we are in for much more of this as they get older.

Norah Stinky Barn

Sometimes when Norah wakes up in the morning her diaper has leaked and her room really stinks. One day Levi said "Norah, it stinks like a barn in here". Norah really likes saying that now. So much that she isn't as interested in potty training anymore. Instead when we ask her if she needs to sit on the potty she says "No. Change diaper. Norah stinky barn.".
