KNOCK KNOCK

I think July is officially the 'knock knock' joke month around here. Thanks to our favorite (uh...I mean the kids favorite) episode of The Backyardigans, Ally has learned a couple of these classics and has pretty much mastered them since she tells them to us 32 times a day. Usually, knock knock time starts at a meal or in the car, when she has a captive audience and continues until we threaten her with no ice cream or an early bed time. Drew has also learned to 'tell' knock knock jokes and as soon as he hears Ally starting, he joins right in.

Here is what a typical knock, knock event goes:

Joke Number 1
Ally: Knock, knock
Mommy or Daddy: Who's there?
Ally: Banana
M/D: Banana who?
Ally: knock knock
M/D: who's there?
Ally: banana
M/D: Banana who?
Ally: knock knock
M/D: who's there?
Ally: orange
M/D: Orange who?
Ally: Orange you glad I didn't say banana? (yes we are very glad)

Joke Number 2
Ally: knock knock
M/D: who's there
Ally: tank
M/D: tank who?
Ally: You're welcome!!!

Joke Number 3
Drew: knock knock
M/D: who's there
Drew: A blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

Joke Number 4 (just learned this morning)
Drew: knock knock
M/D: who's there?
Drew: I don't know

Joke Number 5 (this one usually ends the joke session)
Jason: knock knock
Ally: who's there?
Jason: interrupting cow
Ally: Don't say that Daddy, that's silly.

Anyway, it is fun. I think we need to learn some new jokes though.

By the way, I am now officially a better Blogger than Chuck.
