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? 😊

My 3 y/o to my 1 y/o:
We can party all night!
🤦‍♀️😵‍💫😂

Tonight: Havoc, no more running. It's time to be quiet and get ready for bed.
Havoc: Ok, mummy. (Begins jumping.) I'm hopping! I'm hopping now!
🤦‍♀️

"Raptor! No eat him! That's rude!"

DD (nearly 3) was asking the other day about why we could only see part of the moon- I forget how she worded it but before I could attempt to explain she jumped in with 'someone ate it' 😂

My 3 year old proudly walked up to the vicar (one of my close friends) after church and loudly stated ‘Rev XXX, mummy says you like wine’ 🤣🤣🤣

Mine recently saw my (large, lovely) friend in a brightly coloured coat and went "Look! A teletubby!". I was mortified...

This morning DH and I stood next to each other. DC stood between us and said: "Oh no, don't touch him - yuck!". Bit harsh, really.

Unsure4589 · 14/01/2025 11:56

DD coolly referred to me and DP as ‘those two old people,’ in conversation with her friend the other day. She’s 2.5 years old 😳🫠

Mumtobabyhavoc · 16/01/2025 06:07

@Unsure4589 where in the world did your dc get that from? 😂

I was nursing baby and was listening to Havoc chatting to my mum and telling her we were going to have some lovely soup for dinner and that she should have some, too, because she looks dehydrated. 😵‍💫🤦‍♀️😂

DC: "Mummy, I'm wearing trousers..."
(looks thoughtful)
DC: "Why?"

Mumtobabyhavoc · 20/01/2025 07:07

@Scirocco the why's have started....☺️

DC did a poo, in the public toilet bit of a relatively busy gym.
"Wow, a huge poo!"
Yes dear, it is a huge poo.
"Well done, Mummy!"
...
(Stifled giggles from outside)

There was no amount of protestation that would convincingly demonstrate that it wasn't bloody me that did it.

Mumtobabyhavoc · 29/01/2025 00:06

I was taking a video of Havoc telling a story and it took a bit of a turn:
So, I took the elegator up,
then said, What the hell is going on here?
And that's why it was closed, mummy.

🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️😂

My mum gets it too! She dyed her hair the other day and was despairingly informed (in a shop cafe): "Oh Nana, your hair's dirty. Wash hair soon please."

Their perceptions are so funny! Sometimes spot on and other times quite skewed. 😂

@Mumtobabyhavoc I have been blamed for a new issue. No idea how to fix it as it wasn't something I really considered my responsibility...

"Mummy! Puppy sad (a toy dog). The sun is going down. Mummy! The sun is Going Down!... MUMMY! The SUN is GOING DOWN!!!"
Yes, it's evening time.
"FIX IT! Puppy SAD!"

I didn't really have a solution for that. Or understand why it was suddenly an issue when it's happened pretty consistently every evening for Puppy's existence.

Woke up the other day to a spirited argument going on in the room next door (which the DDs share) about whether dinosaurs go "Snap" or "Roar".

I have, I think, successfully persuaded them that some go "Snap," and some go "Roar."

In other things they have said recently, DD2 cannot say a "st" sound. It comes out as "d". This is slightly awkward when she runs around the park demanding that I find her a big stick.

Mumtobabyhavoc · 07/02/2025 00:20

I was giving Havoc some of my soup to try and Havoc said: Tee peachy manjelly, mummy. I figured it was more of Havoc's secret language then it hit me: ti piace mangiare! Havoc was trying to speak to me in Italian entirely unprompted! 🤗

If you've been following the thread, I still don't know what beerum and dakum mean, but Havoc hasn't said either for a long time now. 🤔

Oh, @Scirocco I missed replying about the sundown issue you posted. I had NO IDEA you controlled that!!! 🤯😂

@Scirocco it must be contagious:

After tears over not giving Havoc milk in the correct "special cup" Havoc suddenly realized it was now dark outside:
(crying) But.... it's dark now, Mummy! 😢And... and.... rrr...wuh wuh rrr... I wuh, wuh.... (rising pitch) Wanted. To. Go. Ouuuutttt. 😭😭😭😭😭

I heard a child say "scarfy-darky" when their eyes were covered to play pin the tail.
