My sweet boy says the funniest things!

Many of you may know the struggle we have had with Burke. He has/had a pretty severe speech delay. He received speech, OT and special instruction from First Steps for 18 months. He has made tremendous progress in the speech department. There are times he says something so funny and inappropriate I cannot help but laugh, I know I should correct him, but it is so hard because there were times I never thought I would get to hear him say these things. I absolutely LOVE to hear him talk, I love the sound of his voice and how he says things. I truly am thankful that he has made such tremendous progress. So here are a few things he has said recently that seriously make me bust out laughing. He really has developed the cutest personality and I love it!

He and Phil were horsing around and he bumped his head. He then turned to me and said "Mom, I need my spiderman medicine!". I started laughing and said "What?". He then said "MOM! I need my spiderman tylenol!" I never knew they made spiderman tylenol, but apparently in Burke's world they do.

Burke loves to watch commercials. Every time a commercial comes on for a toy he yells out to Phil and I, "I want that for Christmas!!" It's hilarious. Phil and I just shake our heads and say "Ok". Recently he has been paying closer attention to all the commercials because he will come running into the kitchen saying "MOM! come see this on the t.v." So I go into the living room and he proceeds to say "Mom, do you want that for Christmas?". These items he has asked me about are  the "Bump-it", the "Ab-Roller" and some rejuvinating face cream. Really? I mean do I need that much help that my 3 year old is asking me if I need these things?!?! I just tell him "Yes Burke, mommy wants that for Christmas" and all the while hope that he does not remember these things at christmas time!

  1. Love it! 3 yr olds are SO funny and cute! It's good you are writing this stuff down so you don't forget. As cute as it is, you will forget a lot of it eventually without a record of it. Love it! I think Tylenol SHOULD come out with a spiderman version. I know it'd be a hit here too!
