DD2 and I were watching one of the music channels yesterday when they were playing songs from women in the 80's. DD2 asked who each one was, when Enya was playing I told dd who it was and she repeated the name back to me - Onion!

Ds1: Mum, when can I go camping with Nan again?

Me: I'm sure she'll take you again in the summer holidays. Do you like sleeping in a tent then?

Ds1: Yeah but the best thing is that Nan always has mental mint cake!

Interested in this thread?

This made me laugh a couple of days back. I gave my 7 year olds 50p each to buy a treat from the newsagent.

J: Look Mummy. I chose a healthy cereal bar for my snack

D: Oh J. A healthy one? You really let me down!

J: Well maybe it's not that healthy. It's wholegrain and marshmallow flavour.

Ds was looking at some photos dh had just brought home last night. Looking at a picture of himself, he asked: 'Mummy, what am I thinking about?'.

Me: 'Erm, probably what a lovely day out you were having with daddy?'

Ds: 'No, silly mummy, I was thinking about trains'!

just had this gem from one of my brats:

"Mummy, sometimes I jump on your bed for such a long time that my stamina hurts."

DD informed me the other day that the person who sits next to the pilot in a plane and tells him the way is called an "alligator"

Dd2 earlier this evening sat down with a serious face and said "we all had to be quiet today because some people died in Mexico last night".

I frowned and said "do you mean because some people died in London last year" ? and she said "oh yeah that was it"

Mexico/London, similar I suppose NOT LOL

Ds is fascinated with my boobs and when I was getting dressed the other morning, I was just about to put my bra on and noticed he was leaning forward trying to get a better look. As I put my bra on he said "hold on, i didn't see the red bits"

Medulla · 07/07/2006 20:39

nutcracker! my DD calls my boobs my hoops - don't know where that came from but we prefer it!

Medulla · 07/07/2006 20:41

we saw a chap at the swimming pool with his nipple pierced and my DD said "Look mummy that man has got a key ring through his hoop"

tallmummy · 07/07/2006 20:47

DS2 aged 5 has been telling me about the "giblets" at his school. "There are 3 of them and they all came out of their mummy's tummy at the same time." Huh!!

I took dts1 on the train a couple of weeks ago. First of all at the station he loudly said:

dts1: Mummy that lady has a banana
me: yes she does
dts1: (getting loud enough for everyone to hear) do you think she'll give me a bit?

Said lady just laughed, didn't realise dts was serious. Then while on the train.

dts1: Mummy that lady is sleeping!
me: sssh you'll wake her
(a few minutes pass)
dts1: She is still slleeeepppiinnggg!
(when we pull into the station)
dts1: Now she is waking up.

No wonder at that noise! So he needs the toilet as we are passing the museum and as we pass the Three Graces statue he pipes up, in the quietness of the gallery "Ooh mummy those ladies are showing their bare bums!"

My DD 3.4 always asks me questions I don't know the answer to! Today we have had -
Mummy where does the wind come from?
Why is grass green?
Do aliens bleed?
Why can't we see a smell?

iamapieceofcheesecake · 07/07/2006 21:41

Very valid questions in my opinion
pmsl at 'do aliens bleed'

DD came out with a couple of corkers yesterday.

The first was a brand new rendition of the song Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes.
It goes like this....

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Knees and Toes
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Knees and Toes
and Eyes and Ears and Mouth and Nose
Head, Shoulders Knees and Toes

and bum
(note; for that bit you must be stood on a chair and actually hold on to it)

Second was at the local Chinese Takeaway.
We walk in have a look at the menu board.

DD, I want Fish and Chips please

DH, Not tonight sweetheart. We're going to have rice and crackers.

DD, Yey rice and crackers!

(At this the lady behind the counter giggles at dd's excitement over prawn crackers, this then diverts dd's attention on to said lady)

DD, Can I have rice and Crackers please.

Lady, You can my dear. Would you like anything else or just crackers?

DD, My dog Oliver had a poo and a wee.

Why in the middle of a busy takeaway? Why????

DS(2) when asked if he was the boss:
"I can't be a boss, I'm not a girl"

crazydazy · 07/07/2006 21:52

DS (4) has been asking lots of questions about christmas just lately, probably because everytime he asks for a toy I say "you can have one for christmas" he then come out with

"Mummy where does Santa live?"
"In Lapland sweetie"
"Aaaaawwwww I thought he lived in White Rose" (our local shopping mall!!)

JillMLD · 07/07/2006 23:43

JillMLD · 07/07/2006 23:44

My dh never evr cook, but he made us all pasta for lunch last weekend:

Me: this is really yummy, thanks very much
ds: Mummy, did Daddy make your lunch ?
Me: yes sweetie he did
ds: On his own ?

Clearly he has got the measure of work division in our house!
