Vampire--But Not So Much


Since school started I have been babysitting my friend Bobie's youngest son TJ on Tuesdays. He is an adorable 4 (5 in October) year old who could talk the ear off a deaf person!! hahahaha!! (0:

TJ and Hannah found a Dracula cape downstairs in the dress-ups and TJ put it on. They came upstairs with a cup from the girls tea set and this is the conversation that they had:

Hannah: Let me get you a drink.
TJ: Of what?
Hannah: Blood. That's what vampires drink.
TJ: Uuuummmm....no they don't. Eeeewwww!! I don't want blood.
Hannah: Well vampires only drink blood.
TJ: Can it be fake blood?
Hannah: Yeah and I will add some caramel in to to make it taste better. Vampires love caramel.
TJ: Yeah! They love chocolate and caramel. Put some chocolate in there too. Then I will go out and punch some bad guys.
Hannah: You can't go out in the sun you will die. Vampires hate the sun. And you are one of the bad guys.
TJ: No, I mean the other bad guys.

Kids are so funny! I am still laughing. Apparently vampires also like chips because they are all sitting at the table eating potato chips.

I wonder if he gets super glittery in the sunlight and hates werewolves. Can you ask him?

Jillene said...

Kristina-
I just asked him and he said yes! hahahahahahhaha!!!!

Kristen said...

Oh, that is to freaking CUTE! I love to listen to little kids' conversations, they are much more entertaining than adults (unless Ryan Hendriksen is impersonating someone-that's pretty entertaining huh?).

Whitney R said...

hahaha, so funny. If I can remember right this is a conversation I had with my 3 year old nephew.

Josh:Whitney, are you going to come to our house?(in Michigan)
Me: Do you want me to?
Josh:Yes, because, well, when you come you will knock on the door and then I will just knock back. Okay?

haha, I asked him if he would let me in and he said maybe.

I had no idea vampires liked caramel, I'll have to offer them some in my fantasies.

Kristen-
Ryan is a pretty funny guy--especially when he is imitating someone!

Whitney-
That is HILARIOUS!! I love that he would just knock back!

Ari-
Thanks! I LOVE their dimples--too bad they didn't get them from me!

Mary-
I am glad that you now have something other than blood to offer them. Oh and thanks for making me notice that I can't spell caramel--and I did it twice!

Jillene said...

P.S.--Don't you just LOVE Hannah's hair? I spend forever in the morning to make it look cute and that is what it looks like towards the end of the day. Oh well--I guess it could be worse!

I just read this conversation to my hubby and we both got a good laugh out of it. Love little kids!

Zach said...

i love when kids dress up and get into character. i love that his big sis was totally schooling him on the facts of a vampire. AWESOME KIDS.
this is why i love halloween. my kids get into costume and stay in character almost all night long. one year julian was a G.I. Joe...he was belly crawling across lawns, taking cover behind trees and cars, scoping out every house...it was hilarious. he'd salute people after they gave him candy!

Bobie said...

What a ham!! He's such a strange child. At least he is bringing some laughter to your home on Tuesdays!! Let's hope it stays that way!! :)

Katie-
It is funny huh? He is not my son--he is my friend's son.

I LOVE that Julian was taking GI-Joe so seriously! It is such a boy thing!! (0:

Bobie-
He is a ham! But he sure was having a great time!!

Unknown said...

Oh be careful Jillene- Kristina P could show up and cradle rob this little Edward in the making.....

Ramona-
You are right! I better keep him in the coffin I fashioned last night--I made it so that when he comes next Tuesday he will have a place that is all his own! (0:
