2 - coughs

2 - people who are already potty trained

6,790 - times a certain toddler has asked his mommy to scratch his "itchy neck," which happens to be the same thing as a tickle

3 - people excited about getting a Christmas tree and putting up decorations

4 - times a very tired three-year-old placed his own foot into his little brother's hands and then proceeded to yell at him: "NO GRABBING, SAMMY! NO TOUCHING, SAMMY! NOOOOOOO, SAMMY!"
