What is the funniest thing your toddler has done recently?

Toddlers are a handful, I think anyone who has one will agree! My son is 2 yrs, 3 months and keeps me busy, busy, busy. Despite all the nights I go to bed mentally and physically exhausted, another thing about toddlers is that they can make most of us smile and laugh like nothing else. So, what’s the funniest thing your toddler has done or said recently?
A few days ago, I was nursing the baby before bed, and Coby (said toddler) was in the other part of the house being a little too quiet for my liking. So, I go to find him, and he’s in the bathroom. He had unrolled a whole roll of toilet paper (not unusual!), put it in the sink, gotten it wet and was throwing chunks of it at the wall. My bathroom walls were covered in what looked like giant spitwads. I couldn’t even tell him that wasn’t OK, I was laughing so very hard. (I even took pictures it was just so funny).

I could respond to this question every single day with another funny story on my 22 month old. The best one recently was on Halloween. We went to our friends house and she said ‘twick or tweet’ and when my friend gave her some candy I asked her to say “thank you”. She, of course, refused so I brought out the real stern mommy voice and said “Mommy said to say thank you, please” to which said 22 month old responds with her hands on her hips “thank you, please”! Her mannerisms and the please at the end was just too funny. She also likes to unroll the toilet paper as often as possible but when she gets caught she grabs a piece and holds it to her nose and tells me she is just blowing her nose. I love it. Motherhood is soooo great.
