Oh, man. I think everyone of these has been said in our house except the Grandpa one (Ben’s grandfathers are not the sort to play with balls).

I love the balls phase! It just makes for so many great unintentional puns. Ranks right up there with the fire truck phase when they still say “f” for “tr”
