The Chronicles of a Raving Lunatic

So, I knew the kids liked Michael Jackson, but not as much as they apparently do. On Saturday we were watching MJ vids on VH1 Classic and "Rock With You" came on. Connor was all, "I want that suit! I like those boots and that shirt. And those pants." And when "Smooth Criminal was on he kept saying that MJ was "so cool" and that he wanted the white suit, too. Actually, he kept wanting just about every outfit... And yesterday we were watching vids again and I changed it to HBO to watch the end of Fred Clause. As soon as the credits started, Thomas grabbed the remote and changed it back to VH1 Classic. So we basically watched MJ vids ALL DAY yesterday b/c the kids wanted to.

And isn't it funny when kids speak like adults? It helps that I've never talked to them like they were babies, even when they were newborns. Like earlier today. Ryan came up to me and asked me something. I didn't hear him so he tapped me on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, but what is a blister?" They're always saying things that you just go, 'wait, did a 6/4 yo just say that? That sounds so grown-up.' Especially Thomas. He does it more than the other two. It's just funny.

And recently Ryan's been singing "Ring of Fire". One day he just started singing it. It's really cute.

I think Ryan really wants to see "Horton Hears a Who". For the last 2 days he's been walking around the house saying, "Jim Carrey, Steve Carrell, Jonah Hill and Seth Rogan in Horton Hears a Who."

Only it sounds more like, "Gene Gary, Steve Carrell, Jimmy Pig and Seff Rogan in Horton Hears a Who." hehehe. I think brother and Corie should take them to see it. Maybe he'll stop saying it then.
