Took my kids #hiking

6 y/o: My legs are so tired. It feels like we’ve been out here for hours!

Me: *pulls out my AllTrails app* We’ve been out here for 6 minutes and we’ve gone 0.08 miles.

6: Are you serious?!?

We did manage to do a 2.5 mile round trip.

6 y/o: Dada, I want to live forever

Me: Ok

6: And I want you to live forever

Me: Done. You got it kid.

6: Dada, what are we going to do when the sun explodes?

Me: Tell you what, as soon as the oceans start to boil, we’ll get out of here. We have about a billion years to plan

6: Ok!

Made pasta from scratch the other night, and my 8 y/o said, “You didn’t really make it from scratch. You didn’t mill the flour.”

Ok Mr. Dark Ages. Good grief 😆

Me: When we get home, you need to bathe.

6 y/o: Why?!? I smell as clean as a hotdog!

Me: That’s actually what I’m talking about.

My wife was teaching my 8 y/o how to make meatballs.

Him with his hands in the meat: I hate this! It feels so gross!

Wife: Just think of it as kinetic sand.

Me: More like kinetic pig.

Him: Ahh!

Apparently my comments are not helpful 😆

Whenever I type “lol,” I make sure to let out a little chuckle, because my mother didn’t raise a liar.

8 y/o: Can I have some milk?

Me: I don’t know, CAN you?

8 y/o (confused): I’m still breathing, so yeah?

Alright kiddo, you win this round.

Why are lion fish so hungry?

Because there are no gazelle fish!

5 y/o talking to my parent’s dog: Sorry Finn, I only speak cat. I don’t speak dog.

My mother: Oh don’t worry! Finn speaks English.

5 y/o: Your dog speaks… ENGLISH?!?

Kids! You gotta go to sleep! Santa is already in Virginia!

Thank you NORAD,

From all celebrating parents tonight

My wife asked which Christmas shapes were most important so she could make extra for me. I didn’t even hesitate

So I was checking NORAD, and it took Santa 74 seconds to get from Chişinău, Moldova, to Bucharest, Romania, which is 160 miles away as the crow flies. This implies a speed of 7784 mph (12527 kph), or 10 times the speed of sound. The lack of sonic booms implies some serious stealth technology.

Why do German children struggle to eat their Christmas bread?

Because it’s usually stollen!

Yes children, I know 23 F (-5 C) “Isn’t that cold,” but you still have to wear your jackets so your teachers don’t judge us.

They negotiated down to their ratty old hoodies. At least they’re getting new ones for Christmas

Was running late for work, but still dashed back inside to grab Defy the Storm by @tessagratton.bsky.social and @justinaireland.com

I have enjoyed every minute of it! Especially seeing Vernestra grow as a character, and how Xylan can’t help but put on a performance for everyone but Plinka.

Woke up this morning to my 5 year old excitedly wishing me a Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve!

Looks like my sense of humor is wearing off on him 😎

It’s finally time to tell my favorite joke of the holiday season!

Why couldn’t Mary and Joseph get a room at the inn?

Because you always need a reservation during the week of Christmas.

While eating dinner the other night:

Wife *takes a bite*: Is this ground pork?

Me: Honey, all pork is ground pork. Pigs can’t fly.

8 y/o: BUT WHAT IF WE HAD A CANNON?!?

Checkmate kiddo. You win this round.

My youngest (5) didn’t like the way his tortilla chips looked, so he decided to eat them in the dark.

This is some of the funniest and most genius kid logic I’ve seen so far.

I’ve heard that frozen bananas taste a lot like ice cream, so today I decided to see if the opposite was true and replaced the banana in my smoothie with ice cream. Can confirm, 100% works 😎

Today my kids were being silly, so I jokingly asked, “What the ‘skibidi sigma’ is going on here?”

My 8 year old got very serious and told me, “That meme is over. Nobody says that anymore.”

I told him that’s too bad, because I genuinely can’t imagine their slang getting any goofier.

Just scored the #StarWars original trilogy book series at Bookworm in Boulder, Colorado! Now may be a great time to hit up your local used bookstore before customers swoop in with their Christmas money. There were far more hard to find titles than I’m used to seeing. And some great kids books too!
