I woke up this morning to see The 'Tude in my bed eating a block of cheese. I just looked at him and he said "Me have breakfast like Buddy" as if he knew what I was thinking.

(Buddy is his toy mouse)

It wad this morning that I thought he gets this weirdness from his dads side, obviously Grin

Miracle baby I just look at in utter utter astonishment....how have you got here little dude?

The other kid is like he was swapped at birth, he could not be more different to dh & I.

Lovely squidgy delicious kids Smile

DS2 eats Rolo desserts using Quavers as 'spoons'. He's 12. Hmm

DS3 (aged 3) loves the Argos catalogue. He sleeps with it, and sings to it and I have to kiss it and say 'goodnight Argos'.

when do they grow out of that Glitz do you know? DS does this too sometimes.

welshnat · 06/02/2014 13:43

raggedy 2yo DS does that too, but I have to join in with "that's not a hat it's a....!" If I don't then offending object gets thrown at my face.

Yes, DD never shuts up and narrates imaginary scenarios and games out loud constantly. I often think where did that idea come from. Today she was saying that her trains were "looking into the swirling depths of the river." She is 2.9.

NoMilkNoSugar · 06/02/2014 14:53

My 4 year old is currently rolling round the floor howling with laughter claiming the 'invisible ghost' is tickling her. [Grin]

happypotamus · 06/02/2014 15:52

DD looking out the window said "I am looking to see if there are any creatures in the trees." I asked if there were any. She replied there were hedgehogs and lions eating each other! WTF?!

TheSmallClanger · 06/02/2014 15:57

She eats bacon-flavoured crisps dipped in anything chocolatey and claims it is nice. Only bacon flavour, mind, any other flavour with chocolate is disgusting and wrong, apparently.
She is nearly 16.

DisgraceToTheYChromosome · 06/02/2014 16:03

DD (17) is simultaneously celebrating and bemoaning her weight loss (99kg > 76kg): "I can feel my sixpack! But my hips are pointless. Look at them sticking out like teacups".

Also standing in my personal space and laughing for no apparent reason.

GlitzAndGiggles · 06/02/2014 16:07

SlightlyDamp I have no idea. It was cute at first but now I'm like arghhhhh. Can you imagine doing it as adults?!

HawkeyeInChaos · 06/02/2014 16:22

Yes. Dd (3) sometimes likes to wear a (clean) pull-up on her head. Until yesterday this had always been in the privacy of the home. Yesterday she wanted to wear it to nursery. I was going to say 'no', but then thought wtf. So she did. The nursery staff clearly thought wtf too.

bemusedisnottheword · 06/02/2014 18:05

my dd1 aged 6 got up this morning fully dressed for school. Apparently she had put her school uniform on before she went to sleep, which was after I had put her to bed and then slept with the duvet round her neck so I wouldn't see

I was wtf Confused . She said at least it saves you shouting at me in the morning and I can have longer in bed!

ISBN1966 · 06/02/2014 18:09

Oh yes. Ds2 (8) got undressed the other night and I realised that at some point during the day he'd quietly drawn an elephants head and ears on his groin with felt tip, so his willy formed the trunk.....

I want all your children!

Please read the above sentence in a non-creepy way... Blush

Psammead that is utterly gorgeous!

SillyBilly I have to not think about how quickly time is passing otherwise I get all mopey and teary-eyed.

PoirotsMoustache · 06/02/2014 18:19

ISBN That is hilarious! I can totally see my DS doing that Grin

kelper · 06/02/2014 18:24

isbn I'm crying with laughter here!!
My ds is a bit odd. Ok very odd! He was wandering round the house earlier singing we are never getting back together by Taylor swift in a really squeaky voice!
He spent a lot of time as a toddler pretending to be a dog, he had to have his plate on the floor etc.

I can't remember being odd.... I blame dh!

slimsoon · 06/02/2014 18:28

ISBN - how funny !
My brother at about 4yrs pulled a pair of my mother's tights on and over his head and made a willy hole . We took a photo and showed it at his 21st.

I have taught my son some strange things that would be weird yo the outside.

I have taught him to sing talk. It was amusing at first but now it annoys the shit out of me, yet I do it to my mum!

YES!
My 2 year old Ds2 sidled up to me put his arm around me, looked me in the eye and said
'did you miss me......princess?'
Brilliant!

Astralabe · 06/02/2014 19:01

ISBN that's so funny!!
DD (3) loves making inanimate objects perform: 'the cup is kissing the oven' ' the toilet is laughing!' 'the carpet is angry'...wtf?! Also loves random attachment and takes various things to bed when she was two there was a label, can of soup and a toilet lid cover from grandmas that had to be placed in the bed in a very specific way. Now its a hot water bottle that cant be hot, a shoe and a toy carrot. Odd odd odd.

2kidsintow · 06/02/2014 19:10

My WTF moment wasn't looking at my DD, but at her handiwork!
She'd used her bath crayons to label the parts of the sink in the bathroom.

Warm water, cold water, soap, drain, edge.

Just barmy.
