The time has come again to share the funny kid quotes for the year. I'm sure there are some I missed, but overall, there are plenty of laughs and cute moments that should make up for it! Also, this was definitely an "Aaron" year since the age he is led to a disproportionate number of quotes from him.
John and Debbie LeStarge kids’ funny quotes 2024
Aaron was walking behind the stroller on the way to
church and holding on to the handle. He tripped and tried to catch himself on
the basket of the stroller which pulled him a little bit farther as he was
falling. This resulted in Aaron accidentally pantsing himself. Deb turned
around to help him up and he was lying on his stomach crying in his underwear
with his pants down to his knees. Thankfully he wasn’t hurt and they were able
to continue on to church after helping Aaron get up and fix his pants.

Deb: “Yes. And how old are you?”
Aaron: “5.”
Deb: “And how old is Zacky?”
Zack: “5!”
Deb: “No, 2. And this year, he’ll turn 3, Aaron.”
Aaron: “Huh!? Three is a magic number!!! Zack you are
so lucky!!!”
Aaron was remembering the school house rock song.

David was trying to bribe Aaron to do his chores for
him. He offered him $1.25 to clean the front room which Aaron accepted but then
didn’t clean anything. The front room was barely even messy since Deb had
cleaned it that morning.
David: “Aaron, you have to stick to the deal!”
Brooke: “Yeah, Aaron. Are you cleaning the room or
giving him the money back?”
Aaron: “Giving the money back.”
Brooke: “You made the right choice. Cleaning the room
is super bad.”
Aaron: “Yeah, it’s the worst!”

Deb was holding baby Sam while putting something away
in the fridge. She went to sit down on the sofa with Sam on her lap and after a
minute realized something cold was touching her arm. She looked down and saw
Sam holding a bottle of Worcestershire sauce and chewing on the lid. He had
taken it off the door of the fridge without Deb realizing it.

John was teaching a family home evening lesson and was
talking about avoiding temptations.
John: “So, what are some sins satan might try to get
us to do?”
After Brooke and David each shared one, John asked
Aaron to share one. He said, “eating candy but not brushing your teeth.”
2-11-24
Deb had a headache so she took ibuprofen and was
drinking some Mt. Dew.
Aaron: “Why do just you have some?”

headache…”

Zack wanted to go into the gift shop at the Clark
planetarium. He saw the “world’s smallest hot wheel car” and immediately picked
it up wanting to buy it. He wouldn’t put it down for a long time and kept
walking around holding it and saying “it’s for my birthday.” Eventually, he saw
other toys and Deb was able to put it away again.

thousand gum balls!!!”

Deb was redoing the 72 hour kits and the kids were excited about the snacks that had been in them. David took the fruit snacks to school and everyone loved them because they were so hard that when you first bit into one, it would stick your teeth together for a bit. He told Deb that one kid was even going to give him a dollar for two bags of them and that everyone in his class wanted them. He then asked Deb how long it takes to get them to be that hard and was disappointed when he found out they were in the bag for 5 years and he wouldn’t be able to quickly make more to trade with his friends.

David and Brooke won the BYU College of Engineering Lego competition! Here they are with their prize.
Deb was getting the kids to bed when something
suddenly smelled really, really bad. When Deb asked what that smell was, Aaron
said it was 11 month old Sam. Deb leaned closer to him and sure enough, the
smell was coming from his mouth and it looked like he was chewing on something.
She reached her finger in and pulled out one of David’s “bean-boozled”
jellybeans that happened to be the stink bug flavor. Sam was a little upset but
not too much because he had a second one in his mouth. Deb took that one too
and it was barf flavored. Sam was upset that mom took his jelly beans but she
gave him a few from the candy box to make up for it and try to get the horrible
smell out of his mouth.

David was mad about something Brooke did on the
trampoline.

going to regain my land!”

Brooke was hugging Sam.
Deb: “Brooke, you’re going to make a really good mommy
some day.”
Brooke: “I know. I learned it from you.”
5-8-24
Deb was sitting in her bed on Mother’s Day morning and
heard a kid shuffling down the hallway toward her room. She expected one of her
children to come in and say, “Happy Mother’s Day.” Instead, Aaron poked his
head in the doorway and in a gruff voice said, “Mom! Stay in bed and don’t come
out of your room!” He was excited for Deb to have breakfast in bed and they
were about to start making it.

As soon as he got home from a week and a half trip to Grandma
and Grandpa Grimes’ house, David went into the kitchen and started eating a
carrot.
David: “Ahhh. It’s so good to have healthy food
again!”
Deb: “Really? What did you guys eat all week?”
David: “We had pizza every day!”
6-18-24
Aaron was wet after playing at the splash pad and was
moving his arms back and forth like he was running.
Aaron: “Dad, if you’re really cold, you can do this.
But go slower and slower because if you go really fast, you’ll catch on fire.”
6-29-24
While on a hike camping, Debbie kept finding wishing stones and handing them to Aaron who was walking next to her. Each time, he would get excited, whisper his wish to it and then throw the rock back on the ground. After doing this for a third time, Debbie asked him why he didn’t keep the wishing stones. Aaron responded that he wanted to throw them back on the trail so other people could wish on them too.
7-12-24
While playing a name game with Grandma LeStarge, the
kids all had to make up a name. Aaron made up “Jerry Beagle Online” and
everyone thought it was so funny that he and the other kids continued to use it
and laugh about it all week. When asked where he heard that name he said, “I
just had it in my head for a long time.”

John: “By the way kids, no one can watch that new Star
Wars show.”
Deb: “Yeah, it had bad stuff in it.”
David: “Yeah, I know. I already tried watching the
start of it and I was like, nope! There can’t be women in Star Wars.”
Deb: “That’s not the bad stuff we’re talking about but
ok.”
7-15-24
Zack came into the room holding an empty sprinkles can
and asked: “Who ate all the sprinkles mommy?” Meanwhile, his mouth was dyed
black from the sprinkles. Pretty sure he was talking about the empty ones that
he didn’t eat but it was still funny.
7-19-24
Deb was taking picture frames off the wall to get
ready to move. When taking the canvas print down in the bathroom, an opened box
of pudding mix fell down from behind it. Being the only one tall enough to
reach, there was no doubt it was David. With all the snacks in the house, it
makes no sense that the kids choose to eat plain pudding and jello mixes as a
snack but they do.
7-19-24
Zack came into the room smiling and holding an empty
sprinkles container. Deb had set it aside for Brooke’s birthday cupcakes so it
wouldn’t get packed.
Aaron: “Wow! Zack that was epic! You ate all of them!”
Zack just stood there smiling proudly.
7-19-24
John changed his shirt while Aaron was still in our
room.
Aaron: “Bro. What are you… Bro, that’s so illegal.”

Deb’s family was visiting and Deb was wearing her bathrobe over her pajamas.

you’re at a fancy hotel.”

butler, and the chauffeur.”
7-25-24
Deb: “Dad and I love you all. We don’t have
favorites.”

he’s so cute!”

Brooke: “Zack put your shirt down.”
Zack: “Look mom, I’m a ninja!”
Zack had pulled his shirt up over his nose and just
under his eyes.

Deb had to bring a kiddo to the dentist and mixed up
which one. She came to check Brooke in and found out it was Aaron that needed
the filling. Brooke was so relieved she told Deb that she was laughing in her
head the whole way home to get Aaron. Aaron, surprisingly didn’t mind being
told he was the one needing the filling and said he wasn’t nervous at all. He
got it done like a champ and was just excited that he would be getting a prize
when he was done. In the end, both kids were happy.
8-1-24
Zack: “Can you give me a back scratch on my foot?”
8-1-24

same time. Watch.”

Julia: “Waffles with strawberries.”
Zack: “No, no, no, no, no.”
Deb: “and whipped cream.”
Zack: “…yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.”
8-8-24
David came home from school and told Debbie that he got in trouble for saying BYU in class and had to stay in for 30 seconds from recess. A few days later, Debbie decided to check with David one more time before deciding if she should email the teacher. After asking about it again, David said, “Yeah, I got in trouble for saying BYU in class and had to stay in from recess for 30 seconds.”
Debbie: “So you got in trouble for saying BYU?”
David: “Yeah. It was either for that or for running in
the halls… but it was more like speed walking…”
Debbie decided not to email the teacher.
8-25-24
Deb was sitting in the boys’ room while they were
falling asleep. Zack suddenly sat up and said, “why are my hands so tiny?”
Deb just thought it was cute that that was what he was
thinking about while he was falling asleep.
9-20-24
Being one of the youngest kids in primary, Aaron was
put in the very front row during all the songs for the Primary Program. At one
point during the first song, he plugged his nose and slowly lowered himself
until he was all the way behind the front of the stand and no one could see
him. When asked later why he pretended like he was going down into water, he
said that he just wanted to be funny.
9-22-24
Aaron and Zack seeing Halloween decorations while
driving in the car:
Aaron: “If you saw a creepy clown, it would shock you
to the ground!”
Zack: “Yeah, you would die to death!”

The kids were super excited when they heard Grandpa was going to the dump and they all wanted to go so we turned it into a family field trip!
While trick or treating, some teenagers were walking
in the street and a car started coming so they started running. (One of the
teenagers was dressed up as a hotdog)
Aaron: “Haha, look at that hot dog man. Run hotdog
man, run!!”
Then the kid’s pants fell down while he was running.
Aaron: “He’s a crazy hotdog man! Run hotdog man!”
10-31-24
Zack: “Mom, look I’m bigger!”
Deb: “Wow, did you grow taller while you were sleeping
last night?”

Zack pulled up his pant legs to show mom his calves.
Deb: “That’s great Zacky!”
Zack: “Yeah, I’m getting so big!”
11-9-24
While driving in the car.
Aaron: “Mom, Zack kicked me in the face!”
Deb: “I don’t think he did it on purpose Aaron, it was
probably an accident. Zack, did you do that on purpose?”
Zack: “Yeaaah! Because Aaron was doing like this…” (in
a high voice imitating Aaron) “chicken noodle bsh bish.”
11-9-24
Brooke: “Did you know that your skull is more than one
bone when you’re a baby?
Deb: “Yep and your brain doesn’t stop developing until
you’re in your 20’s.”
Brooke: “Oh is mine still growing?”
Deb: “Yep.”
Brooke: “Is yours still growing?”
Deb: “Nope, but I’m still learning new stuff every
day.”
Brooke: “Oh are you in your 20’s?”
Deb: “No.”
Aaron: “She lived in the 50’s!”
Deb: “What??”
Aaron: “Yeah mom’s 51!”
Deb: “No I’m not Aaron, I’m 31.”
Aaron: “Aww! So close!”
11-11-24
Aaron: “Hey mom, I have a baby name for a boy baby.”
Deb: “Oh? What is it?”
Aaron: “Goon.”
11-11-24
Aaron came into Deb’s room, and gave her a kiss on the
cheek. He then walked over to John, spanked him, and walked out of the room.
Deb: “Aaron, why do you always give me kisses on the
cheek, but you just give dad spankings?”
Aaron: “He’s a cheesey wagon and you’re just sweet.”
11-16-24
Zack was mad and started hitting Aaron. John broke
them up and trying to get Zack to think of another
way of handling being mad asked: “Zack what can you do
instead of hitting when you’re mad?”
Zack frustrated said angrily: “name of Jesus Christ,
amen!”
11-17-24
Aaron: “Mom, can I have one of those oval things that’s brown and it’s a cookie?”
Deb: “You mean a cookie?”
Aaron: “No. It’s like an oval footstep. It looks like
a cookie but it’s not.”
Deb: “I’m not sure what it is you’re talking about.”
Aaron: “You buyed them a long time ago. I could show
you if we went to the store.”
This went on for a while and Deb could never figure
out what Aaron was asking for.
12-3-24
Deb picked baby Sam up to put him in his car seat and
he had a stinky diaper.
Debbie: “Oh Sam, you smell so bad. Why are you so
stinky?”
Sam stared at Debbie for a second and then leaned in
and kissed her on the cheek.
12-4-24
Brooke was sorting her toys to decide which ones would
be in the house and which ones would go in a box in the garage because Deb
thought there were too many toys in the house.
Deb held up a few Barbies and asked Brooke which box
she thought they should go in. Brooke grabbed a Barbie whose hair had gotten
dirty outside so it looked ash blonde and said that that one definitely has to
stay in the house because she uses that Barbie to be the grandma.
12-4-24
Debbie was setting the food on the table for dinner
and placed a large bowl with salad on it. Sam was standing in a chair and
immediately said, “Yay!” and pulled the bowl of salad towards himself. He
picked up a fork and looked from Debbie to John smiling. Even though he’s only
1 and a half, Sam is one of the few kids in the family that likes salad.
12-19-24
Debbie: “Do you boys want something to drink with your
lunch? What would you like water or milk?”
