Jude and I were playing interview last night. I was asking him a series of questions, and he was giving me awesome four year old answers. It was too cute not to share!
Christmas is always a popular topic in our house. Here's the part of the conversation that revolved around Christmas presents.
Me: Jude, what do you think we should get Daddy for Christmas?
Jude: I want.. hmmm. I know! TOYS!
Me: I know you want toys, but what should we get Daddy? What kinds of things would Daddy like for presents?
Jude: Soda! Daddy likes soda! He drinks it, and it goes in his tummy, and he says "mmm. Delicious!"
Me: That's a good point! What else do you think Daddy would like for Christmas?
Jude: Maybe like a cartoon, he likes to watch cartoons with me. Daddy can read. Get him things for reading. And a toy. Something spooky for Halloween. And some guy fruits.
Me: What are guy fruits?
Jude: Like... guy strawberries, guy cherries, and guy watermelon. And apple pie
Me: Oh I see. Okay, well what do you think we should get for Giddy for Christmas?

Me: I know Jude. I didn't forget. It's just nice and fun to get other people presents, too. Okay?
Jude: Okay.
Me: What should we get Giddy for Christmas?
Jude: Two toys.
Me: Two toys? what should the toys be?
Jude: A lot of race car toys.
Me: Aw, Jude! That's a nice idea. Giddy loves to play with his race cars and race track!
Jude: Aaaannnnd VeggieTales' Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber VeggieTales toys.
Me: Okay
Jude: And a Disney Junior Jake and the Neverland Pirates book. And that's all.
Me: What about Abby? What should Abby get?
Jude: Just baby toys.
Me: Well, what are good toys to give babies?
Jude: Just toy food and a baby doll toy.
Me: Okay. Anything else?
Jude: She likes baby bath toys for baths. And a bowling ball!
Me: You think Abby needs a bowling ball?
Jude: Yeah! Come on, Mommy! It will be fun!
Me: (After a fit of laughter) Okay. Here's a hard one for you. What should Mommy get for Christmas?
Jude: Just... like... a box.
Me: A box?
Jude: Yeah. And you and Abby share girl food. You can eat it and it can go down in your tummy and you say "mmm. Delicious!"
Me: Girl food? What's that?
Jude: Apple pie
(So I get an empty box and a pie that I have to share? Thanks a lot, buddy.)
This kid is a hoot! I have no idea why food is being categorized as "girl" and "guy," but I can tell you that all the "guy fruits" are his favorite fruits. He eats them, and they go down in his tummy, and he says "mmm. Delicious!" Apparently, he also has apple pie on the brain.
Another thing you may have noticed, is that Jude is very specific about certain things. It's not just Jake and the Neverland Pirates. It's Disney Junior's Jake and the Neverland Pirates. It's not just Bob and Larry toys. It's VeggieTales' Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber VeggieTales toys. When Frozen is on, he is not just watching "Froyen." He is watching "Disney's Froyen."
Jude is just one of those kids that is so dead serious and literal about things, that he doesn't realize how hilarious he is to the rest of us.
