Let's Blame It on the Bird Poop

We are THAT family, now with live video footage.

Let me set this up: Little sister has learned to twist herself on the swing. Big brother wants a turn to show her how to really do it.

{Please ignore my  hubby laughing at the end of this short video. He chuckles when he's overcome with compassion for our injured children.}

P.S. At the very end, my son says, "That would be funny_________" but the video camera cuts off.

P.S.S. Let me fill in the blank "That would be funny on Mom's blog!" He's right!

That kid makes lemon-aid out of lemons, every time.

{Can you stand one more P.S.?  I nearly pee every time I watch this clip!!!!}

Yep, he's a keeper! Poor little guy... too funny!

Jeanette said...

I was waiting for that to happen :}

At least he was a good sport about it!

Kids are so funny like that! Thanks for the laugh. Is it okay to laugh?

I'm waiting for J to fall asleep before watching this. I know he will hear those familiar voices and come CHARGING out of bed! ;)

Kristen said...

By the way, he's fine! He thinks he's a YouTube star now, so the momentary pain was totally worth the Internet glory :D

Ouch!

Shannon said...

Oh my stars. That is hysterical! I mean, um, poor kid--yeah, that's what I meant to say. ;)

Having been skating with your little man, I'm surprised he didn't do a "dance" after hitting his head. :) Love him!

Ah, one for posterity! That's what big brothers get for being show offs :-)....as I bet that's how little sister would put it!

Michelle said...

How funny! My B would do something just like that. He smacked his head hard on the parallel bars at school today. Graceful like his mom!

Dorci said...

Ouch! I love how the second your daughter hears there's bird poop on the other swing you can practically see the thought bubble pop up as she turns her head in that direction and then heads over to check it out. Love it!

Amanda said...

LOVEd it!! That was so funny!!

That is so funny! My boys are getting to be the same way. Every time I take a picture of them doing something funny, they ask "Aw mom, are you putting this on the blog?"

Oh, my goodness! That is so funny! I totally agree that you should send that in to America's Funniest Home Videos.

That was classic! Poor kid, I hope he recovered quickly! I noticed the bird poop didnt seem to be much of an issue for little sister!

Rachel said...

How funny is that? Yea, I tend to laugh when my kids get hurt. My hubby likes to say compassion is not my gift. When they're really hurt then Dad usually comes to the rescue because I don't hand blood well.

Cathy said...

He's right. That would be (was) funny on mom's blog!!

Debbie @ The Shabby Bungalow said...

I feel terrible laughing but that was funny - kids - they are daft :)

My video didn't come up...maybe I will come back later.

I can't say much, I laugh when people get hurt (of course if it's not serious!) As my 3 year old son would say when I laugh at him... It's not funny Mom! That was classic. Thanks for the laugh!I do love how your daughter went straight to the other swing. Curiousity gets the best of them!

Jaden Paige said...

Awww poor kiddo!! But hey, at least you had the camera out... Now it doesn't have to be all bad, since he gets his 15 minutes of fame and we all get a chuckle ;)

Tina said...

THAT was funny!

~*Michelle*~ said...

How THAT is a hardcore blogger's kid....keeping his mom's blog at the top of his priority list, even with a head injury!

Unknown said...

I think bird poop is the theme of the day--it's a key topic in my post todaytoo.
Thanks for a good laugh! (and I hope his head is feeling better).

NicEmMom said...

I don't care who you that is funny! I can see my kids doing the samething. What is more funny is that your daughter went on the bird poop swing!

Maddy said...

Fame is the spur.....around here too.
Cheers

TxFarmhouse said...

I agree. That needs to be sent to AFV. Poor little guy. What's so funny is watching little sister go to the other swing mindless of the bird poop!

grannyann said...

Ouch!!!that hurt. Glad he is ok. Kids can get themselves into some bad tricks.

Jenn @ Beautiful Calling said...

That was great. Thanks for sharing. I needed a chuckle today!

everydayMOM said...

You just knew it was coming! But the part that really got me was how your daughter went right over and got on the swing with the bird poop!

Kasey said...

What a funny memory to get on camera!!

Lynn said...

Now that I know he's okay....

Bah ha ha!!!!

Jane Anne said...

Oh my goodness, that is hilarious. I agree with the 1st commenter- that would be great for America's Home Videos. I love that he thought of your blog right away, too. That blog is a family affair!

My kids and I love this!!! My son, who is 13 and has had many similar incidents (and many with much worse results), said, "You've GOT to look where you're going." He's the expert on it so I'll take his word for it :-)

ro said...

I love this! I laughed so hard and loud my eyes teared up! The funny things that children do!

Lady Pamela said...

This Grandma thinks your kiddos are very sweet. Yes, I think it should go on America's Funniest Home Videos.

Tammy said...

Oh my gosh, I almost peed myself too! HILARIOUS!

Kelly said...

I, like your husband, have the same issue of laughing "in compassion" when one of my children does something similar.

I was ok until the "thunk"... impossible not to laugh. Too funny!
