 Caden spent the night with Grandma and Grandpa Miles last night.  I asked him what time he went to bed, and he said "10:30 because we were watching Trump and Joe fight about that thing."

 While playing at the playground tonight, Caden and Colt were having a competition to see who could hang from one arm the longest.  Caden (7) beat Colt (12) easily.  Colt informed Caden it was because Caden was only like 30 pounds (exaggeration).  Caden retorted, "If I had THESE ARMS and YOUR BODY I could still beat you." 

That just cracked me up.  Now it's an ongoing joke. . .If I had THESE _______ and YOUR ______ then I could __________. 

 Caden was getting out of the shower and asked me to bring him some clean clothes.  He said, "Don't forget the. . . the. . . the. . . mayonnaise!"  

I wasn't really sure what he meant by that, but he saw that I had his pajamas and underwear in my hand.  He said, "Oh, you got them"  (the mayonnaise was his underwear).

I chuckled, and corrected him.  Then I asked if he knew what mayonnaise really was.  He replied, "Um, some kind of fish maybe?"
