Kids (& babies, apparently) Say the Darndest Things

Over the holidays, and while deer hunting, Sutton kept telling us things that Garner was "saying".

"Garner said he saw a deer. Yea, over there."

"Garner wants to open presents. He told me."

I, of course, thought to myself how awesome it would be if toddlers/little kids could translate baby babbles... Or can they???

So this past weekend, while in Angelo to visit and go to rodeo, Sutton told us more things his baby cousin "said":

"Garner said he wants:
-his boots on.
-some milk.
-his boots off.
-to get in/out of his chair (carseat).
-to sleep.
-me to hold him.
-to wake up and play.
-to go to sam's.
-to go get GG.
-to drive my up-down.
-to sit with me."
-etc.

"He does?"

"Yea, he told me."

It was all pretty funny, but this was the funniest:

Sutton: Lala, baby Garner said a bad word.
Lala: Did he now? Well, he shouldn't do that, should he.
S: He said s*#%! That's a bad word.
L: Sutton, are you supposed to say that word?
S: grinning mischievously, shaking head "no"
L: What does mama do when you say that?
S: innocently,"Nothin'"
L: Does she swat you? (She does!)
S: innocently,"noooooooooooooooooooo".

The moral of the story: little kids may or may not understand baby babble, my 4 month old may or may not have a potty mouth, and toddlers lie.
