Funny things your toddler has said

[Mumtobabyhavoc]

I thought it would be fun to share those little gems here.
Mine recently rubbed my pregnant belly and said, "Baby!" Then, without missing a beat touched my boob and exclaimed, "Booby!" 😵‍💫
And: while I was using the toilet came over to me, patted my leg and said, "Good job!" 👏

Got any to share? 😊

I told my dc some old nursery rhymes from memory the other night to distract dc during potty time (trying to potty train). Remembered There was an old woman:

Me: There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. A shoe! Can you believe it?!
Havoc: Hmmm. I see....
Me: Well, she had SO MANY children... she didn't know what to do!
Havoc: Oh, that's important.
Me: She gave them some water, but not any bread. No bread!
Havoc: (deep thought)
Me: Then she whipped them all soundly. After that, she just put them to bed.
Havoc: Why did she do that? That's not appropriate.

Earlier tonight I asked Havoc about the Old Woman in the shoe and got a fairly decent retelling, but Havoc added: You should be nice to the children, mummy.

Awww.

This morning DC said what I really thought was "apple juice please mummy", repeatedly, becoming increasingly frustrated when offered apple juice, apple squash or even actual apples.

What DC actually wanted was to look at pictures of a "platypus please mummy".

That made me laugh @Scirocco 😂
Does dc have a book or something about a platypus? Otherwise that's quite random. 😂

One of the 'Oi Frog' books has a platypus in it, which probably sparked an interest. DC's very into animals.

There was much confusion the other day when we met a dog called Bear. DC looked really weirded out and then afterwards said "But... Not a bear. Puppy. Lady wrong."

Similar energy to @Scirocco - on a recent trip to the park, we saw a hot and bothered Frenchie:
DS: Doggy! [Thinks for a moment] Is it piggy?
He then started making snuffling sounds to really drive the point home.

Oh my god I can relate to that!
Me: Please put your toys back into the toy box.
Havoc: That's not a box. That's a bin.

Me: Watch you show on tv.
Havoc: That's not tv. That's a movie.

I stand corrected. 🤦‍♀️

That must've be so cute! 🥰

A pretty good guess, actually! 👍

I was on an airplane and a toddler points at someone and loudly says "mummy, that's a MAN"! It was woman who was either masculine looking or perhaps transgender, they looked horrified 🙈!

I order prune juice in my online shop to help with my constipation.

My 3 year old loudly shouts out “mummys poo poo juice” to the delivery man whilst pointing at carton of juice 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

My 3 year old likes to tell everyone dads a winky

he kept winking and I had said ok mr winky I get your point. He obviously heard that conversation 🤣🤣

Lately everything is, "From Santa."
I'm making a latte: Mummy the milk frother is from Santa.
Mummy, I found a leaf! It's from Santa!

Someone is getting ready for Christmas early!
DD today at a nature centre the whole way round 'pig' 'pig', not interested in all the fancier animals just wants to see a pig! Unfortunately pig is sleeping so we don't manage to see it but she loves the mongoose and the meerkats spending ages watching them.
Dad asks her what her favourite animal was 'pig'! 😂

It's funny how they zero in on things, isn't it?
Mine is obsessed with cars. Tells me which ones are driving by and parked when we're out. Mummy, that's a
Tesla. Mummy, that's a Mazda. 😂

Oh she currently has a real thing about slugs- she is anxious about them every time we walk down our path because we had a couple of days a few weeks ago where there were loads. So now she says 'no slugs mummy?', I have to say 'no too hot/sunny for slugs' so she can say 'slugs in bushes'!
Then the other day with her dad she is at home 'no slugs daddy?' So daddy says 'no too sunny for slugs' and she goes 'make it rain daddy, want slugs'! 😂

Mine says no prob-lem, no worries and puts her finger on her lips, thinking and says mmm interesting

DC is very enthusiastic about toilet training at the moment, but appears to be trying to toilet train me. So, we regularly get "Toilet time for mummy" announced in public. That went down well on a video meeting this morning.

At a museum yesterday we were in awe looking at the bones of a prehistoric aquatic creature they had on display (can't remember exactly what but along the lines of a Plesiosaur or similar!) my son (2.5) says 'it's a bit dead'

We have also recently potty trained and whilst he was sitting doing his business he was singing 'twinkle twinkle chocolate bar, my daddy drives a rusty car'
I've never heard that version before but I thought it was great. He must have learnt it at nursery😂

"A bit dead". Love it.

Oh, @Scirocco mine is on definite strike from using the toilet. 🤦‍♀️😢 However, when out always wants to see the toilets and will be very insistent, Mummy I have a pee pee!
@BluJanuary what a good observation, though! 🤓
@Makingchocolatecakeafter some thought mine recently said, That's appropriate. 😂
@Cuwins slugs?! Brings back a horrific childhood memory involving a large rock- 'nuff said.

I'm so happy to see some more posts here!!!! All the stories make me smile! I hope sharing here is doing the same for all of you! 🩷

I've had a sickness bug today and my 3yo came over gave me a kiss and said "you'll be okay mummy"

🥹🥰

Me: Look at those cows, aren't they big?!

DC: (shrugs and looks like the definition of disinterested) Not a camel.

I just put Havoc in the bedroom and closed door for a nap and am sitting in the living room nursing baby. Bedroom door opens, Havoc walks out saying, "Sorry guys. Sorry guys." Sits on couch beside me, sighs and says, "So, I had a good sleep". 🤦‍♀️

Trying to get Havoc down for a nap is becoming more and more difficult...

Love that one!
