Kids Say the Darnedest Things

This post goes quite well with the last one. Bentley always has so many things he wants to do he doesn't like when I say it's bedtime. The other night he decided he would try a few things to see if it would get him out of going to bed right then. This is how it went:
Mom: Bentley it's bedtime.
Bentley: I'm hungry.
Mom: No Bentley you are not hungry.
Bentley: I'm thirsty.
Mom: No Bentley you aren't thirsty.
Bentley: I've got to go potty.
Mom: RUN!
Finally I grabbed him and carried him upstairs. As we were passing by the upstairs bathroom where he saw the bathtub...
Bentley: But I smell like a fish.

I lost it right there. I thought it was hilarious that he would even say he smelled like a fish to get out of going to bed. Silly Boy!!

That's funny. Sounds like Averie for nap time... Luckily by bedtime she's usually good and ready so she just goes right to bed.
