Posted to: Blow My Mind - I Think I Pee'd My Pants - Mama-fied - She said - Starlet - The Hub - Whuh? - family - religion
These are just a few examples of things we never imagined we’d find ourselves saying, nor hearing. But there’s just something to be said for having a child, that brings a whole new look to daily conversation.
We said:
Mama: Fish don’t eat bacon.
M: Ketchup is for dipping; not eating by the spoonfulls.
M: Are you excited??? We’re gonna shower with Nemo, Simba & the sea captain!!
M: Don’t scan your belly button (her cash register has a scanner wand).
M: That’s sweet babe, but ladybugs don’t use Chapstick.
M: Hun, tiaras don’t go on your bum.
Daddy: Quit squeezing your diaper! Ya got poo! Its not a stressball!!
M: (on explaining my cross necklace) Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins, babe. You know how when you’re bad, or don’t obey, you get warnings, time-outs or spankings? Its like Jesus took all our time-outs & spankings for us.
M: Get your face outta the potty or I’ll take the batteries out of it! (She had child potty that played music.)

She Said
~”Be quiet, Mommy. I got a message (while holding her “cell” to her ear). Thanks for being quiet. That was important.”
~”Sophia, what would you like to drink with your lunch? Juice, milk, or water?” I asked her;”No thank you. Ummmmmmaybe….. dog poop?” she replied.
~”Mommy? I jus’ wanna smack her.” ~ after my cousin’s 3-1/2 year old said she didn’t want to share her grapes at a B&B High Tea Party for Gramma J.
~At her 2 year Pediatrician Check-Up, Dr. Emery was talking to her about going potty:
Dr: “And if you feel like you have to go, just tell Mommy or Daddy. Then you get to wear fancy pants.”
Sophia: “Fancy Pants is dead.”
*Fancy Pants was our fancy tail goldfish that had died a few weeks earlier. Dr. Emery looked mortified, so we felt obliged to tell her the rest of the story.
~Salmon dinner, lidded cup that poured all to easily from built in straw, bib that held water= bad combo…
“YEAH! Swim, salmon! SWIM!”
She had accidentally dropped salmon bites into bib, but then thought it’d be fun to add the water. As she poured, the salmon swirled & swirled.
S: “Daddy, I’m deaf. I can’t hear you.”
D: “Sophia, no you’re not. That’s not funny.”
S: “What am I talking about?” (Complete with a Brooklyn accent)
Â
And the list just rolls on… These are just some of the highlights.
What say you & your kiddos??

That’s too much fun! I’m going to have to get my friends with kids over there to see those…

This is HILARIOUS! I can’t wait until my lil’ punkin starts talking and we can have such interesting exchanges!

Parents & kids say things we couldn’t imagine in our wildest dreams, but Starlet beats them all.

Hmmm let me see. How about,
“I didn’t do it, the monkey did.”

The Hubs and I don’t have any kiddos (yet), but our friend has an adorable three year old (Melissa is the friend, Maddie is the daughter). About three months ago, Melissa grandmother passed away and she was a little afraid of how Maddie would react at the viewing and funeral. Maddie actually did really well, but on their way home from the funeral, they were pulling into the drive way before they went inside for a small family reception, and little Maddie goes, “Ummmm, I have a question. Did we just marry Grandma or bury grandma?”
Your daughter is soooo cute! Cannot wait to have one of our own

My son was helping me put groceries away.
“Show me your face!” he yelled.
“I said show me your face.”
I turned to look at what was going on.
Screaming, he threw an eggplant across the kitchen and ran to his room.
“What is going on?” I asked.
“He wouldn’t show me his face and I thought he would bite me.”
“The eggplant??? It has no face. It is a vegetable like a pumpkin” I said.
My son replied, “OHHHH. But I thought you brought home something alive.”
“I did….a fish. He is swimming with his new friends in the fish tank” I said as we both laughed.
That is how my son met his first eggplant.

I had to read the things S was saying outloud to the hubs!! We were both crackin’ up!! Those are sooooo great!!!!
September 15th, 2006 at 2:44 pm
I can never remember any of the good things that crack me up, but I’ll have to give it a thought.
Plus, I’m too busy thinking about how Sophia was trying to imagine herself wearing a dead fish. Not the best incentive in potty training.

Very funny..they made me laugh.
have a great weekend.

Oh my goodness! You had me cracking up over here! What a good list!
I think the funniest thing Kayla’s said to me lately was when she noticed by blue veins on my legs and said “uh oh! color!” as if I had colored on myself with a crayon

Too adorable!

Those are SO funny. “Are you excited??? We’re gonna shower with Nemo, Simba & the sea captain!!” That’s my favorite. And I loved how you explained the cross on your necklace. That was perfect.
