Maniacal Laughing in Bed

The adventures of Dude-apotamus continues...

A few weeks ago the three of us were laying in bed talking about all sorts of things. One of the topics that came up was about pregnancy. Katie goofily said to Caleb, "I had one heck of a hard pregnancy and it wasn't easy giving birth to you. What do you have to say for yourself?"

Without much of a pause Caleb retorted, "Excuse me!" I think the house shook with all the roaring laughter that erupted from that.

Katie then said, "You're funny. Do you have anything else to say for yourself about your birth?"

With a glimmer in his eye he chuckled, "Surprise!" I don't think the neighbors could sleep after all the laughing that Caleb was stirring up.

Katie, with tears in her eyes and winded from laughing, said, "I'll give you one more chance. What do you have to say now about it?"

Without any prodding he replied, "Special Delivery!" I'm sure you can all figure out what happened next.

Just so you all know, neither Katie or myself prompted or elicited these answers from Caleb. These all came from our darling three year old. If he keeps this up he's bound to be a very entertaining child. He's got a great start and plenty of time ahead to keep up with his slapstick humor and wonderful sarcasm (that he doesn't quite get yet). He's got a special knack for making others laugh.
