Common sense - some people have it and well....

So we're eating breakfast today. Teddy got to pick what he wanted as he heads off to camp for two weeks today.... so of course he wants a meat fest so we have sausage and bacon and then he added pancakes and I made eggs for Brad, Jack, and I as well - all was very yummy and a nice breakfast was had by all.

Then Teddy decides he wants another piece of sausage, so he grabs one off the plate and puts it in the microwave for 10 seconds (now just the fact that he was self sufficient enough to think that whole thing through is impressive, I kid you not but that's not the story here). The timer beeps and he reaches in and grabs the piece that he'd just laid down right inside the microwave, no plate, no paper towel, no nothing, and he starts to jump a bit and say ... "Ouch, Oooh, Ow, hot, hot, hot" He walks the long way around to the sink (no idea why) and still with the "ouch, ow, this hurts" he's bouncing the sausage in his hand so it's not sitting there at any one time for too long. Then he walks to the table "Ow, IT'S HOT!, ouch", then back to the island "ow, ouch, oooh, hot". Finally back to the table, still bouncing the sausage in his hand, still complaining that it hurts and finally he plops it down on the table.

Brad and I just burst out laughing, we'd been trying to contain during his whole trip around the kitchen, but finally it just came bubbling out until we were both laughing uncontrolably. On the up side, Teddy has no idea what we were laughing at. It's a clear case of the absent minded professor.....

That is so funny, reminds me of the game hot potato, but he played the real life version.

As the father of the boy who has no common sense, this was the funniest thing I have seen from my children in their entire lives.
