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? 😊

Our local cemetery has a very pretty arch over the main gates . . . we were on the bus one day and as we passed the entrance my DN said "Look . . . . it's a squashed church!"

@LavenderAndLillies your post made me lol 😂
It's a very sweet world view, though. 🥰

A couple mornings ago I woke dc up and then asked, Did you have a good sleep? Toddler replied, Yes, I had a good sleep. And I have gas. I farted, mummy!

I'm having a rough week and these have really made me chuckle. We frequently get told 'you'll just have to wait a minute' by our 2.5 yr old 😬😂

Mumtobabyhavoc · 03/05/2024 18:12

@Scirocco mine knows Thank you and uses it semi-regularly, but Please is another story. Instead of just Please I get exactly what I've been saying to teach it.
Mummy, can I have some? Can you say Please, Mummy?
Then, Pweeeease if it's really wanted.

My DD when she was a toddler, frequently threatened to snap her brothers out of existence and would hold up her unsnapped fingers up to show her commitment to going through with it 😂

Mumtobabyhavoc · 03/05/2024 19:29

Oh @TiptoeThroughTheToadstools that's a good one! How did she learn that?

@Mumtobabyhavoc thanos I believe lol. However at 8 she had now started threatening people that she'll trap their souls in jars... no idea where that came from!

Mumtobabyhavoc · 03/05/2024 21:05

@TiptoeThroughTheToadstools those are some mad skills! Better stay in her good books! 😂

Toddler has taken to screaming, My eyes! My eyes! when crying to indicate to me I need to rush over with something to wipe them (often with my sleeve!). If the crying is intense enough to start sniffles it becomes, My eyes! My eyes! My nose!!! My nose!!! 😢😪

My youngest DS as a toddler, picked up a sausage off his plate with tomato sauce on it and told me to clean it

Mumtobabyhavoc · 03/05/2024 21:27

@TiptoeThroughTheToadstools it must be phase.
I get, "Mummy can you clean it?" Or "Mummy will do it." daily. 🤦‍♀️

There must be a toddler handbook somewhere that they refer to in order to keep us on our toes!

I get this regularly too- generally it means remove any small 'bit' on her food- vegetable mostly

When my DD was about 4 I asked her if I looked nice after getting ready for a night out. The dress I was wearing had an almost sheer piece of fabric on the top. After thinking about her answer for a few seconds, she replied 'well it's a nice dress mummy but I can see that thing that holds your lungs up' GrinGrin

Tonight, DC fell asleep stroking a picture of a Ferrari, saying "my car, my car".

(We do not have a Ferrari).

They’re brutal! 😂 My youngest recently said, after I tried out a new eyebrow pencil, “Woah. Mummy your eyebrows.”

I raised one of the said eyebrows at her. “Don’t you like it?”

She kind of hissed through her teeth and winced then said “It…doesn’t look good.” 😂 cheers darlin!

At breakfast this morning I asked our daughter (2.5) what she has for breakfast at nursery. Her response 'I told you last week I don't have breakfast at nursery' (she does) 😂

Cuwins · 04/05/2024 16:05

My 2 year old has had many versions of saying 'thank you' over the last 6m. It started at 'dank do' then 'dank' and now 'hang' which resulted in 'hang mummy' this afternoon! 😂

Mumtobabyhavoc · 04/05/2024 23:45

DC is bringing all stuffed toys to me and asking me to give them kisses. DC was just hugging Mickey Mouse, a rather large one about 2 and a half feet tall and whispering, I love you. 🥹

My daughter when she was 2 and sitting on grandmas (my beloved late mil) said 'grandma why are your boobs so low?' I was mortified.
She then said to me 'mummy I don't know why you tell me off when you're not even big enough to be a grown up'
Granted im 5ft but ??

Scirocco · 07/05/2024 11:51

I was woken up by DC in the middle of the night: "Mummy, my Mummy! Mummy... (thinks, shakes head) No, not you."
(starts shaking DH)
"Daddy! Daddy!... (thinks)... No, Daddy no boobie."
(turns back to me)
"Mummy! Snack!"

(After all that, DC wanted a biscuit).
