I didn't hear you pour me some milk mom!!

My mom and I have gotten into a habit of telling Alec stories every few days. And if anyone knows my mom, you know my siblings and I have spent most of our lives sitting on her bed trying to make her laugh. Which isn't hard. Grandma Elsie thinks everything is hilarious. It's hereditary as her aunts used to sit around and laugh themselves silly. My sister Lisa said we all grew up thinking we were comedians...sadly we happen to not be as funny to everyone else. So I thought I'd sit here on my bed and tell a few of the good ones that have made Grandma Elsie laugh the hardest.

1:Everytime I remind Alec to flush I say "I didn't hear a flush!" So yesterday after asking me several times for a glass of milk, he finally came up and said " Mom. I didn't hear you pour me a glass of milk!"

2:Our friend Kari seems to bewilder Alec since she is the only one who gets in his face the way he does everyone else. We mentioned going to Disneyland with her on friday and Alec said "Kari is my friend......she's my sister. She's one of my Babes!" (His nickname for Ella is "Babes".)

3: I was trying to make a cake for some event and Alec decided he was going to help out. He dragged a chair into the kitchen stood on it and said "Mom, take a seat. Take a seat. I got it. Now let's see here....how we gonna do this!"

Of course I can't think of anymore right now so I'll add to this post the next few days. Check back...he's here all week.
