Kids Say the Darndest Things!
It's been my experience that people just can't resist talking about their children! In an effort to change the mood around here, I thought I'd ask about the cute, funny, or embarassing things your kids have said! I know we ALL have a story or two! Don't have kids? How about niece or nephew... or maybe you've overheard something in a store or restaurant.
My kids actually inspired this post during lunch today. I was nursing my 6 week old daughter, while my 2 and 4 year old were arguing over whether the baby was drinking milk or juice. My 4 year old very confidently walked over to me and pointed at my chest saying, "She's having milk!!!! This side is for milk. This side is for juice." 15 comments from 9 users

Have you all seen the Disney movie, "The Incredibles"? There is a scene where Mr Incredible is having dinner in Syndrome's volcano with the lady named Mirage. She tells him everything he is eating was grown on the island and asks how it compares. He says, "Everything is delicious".Well, my son got in the habit of asking me every night at dinner, "Did you make everything"? I would say, "Yes" and he would say, "Everything is delicious". This was our dialog every night for WEEKS. Then one night I made this crock pot creation/disaster. He asked his usual question.... When I said "Yes".... he asked, "Uh..... Did you make anything else"? posted by

After I watched the video link that Jewels posted above ( and laughed heartily, I might add), this was the next video in the line-up.....I know we're not supposed to think it's funny when a child swears/cusses, but I admit up front that I laughed my a** off! Here it is: posted by

Jewels - my son did the same thing in a Costco parking lot when he was about 2 years old! The funny thing is, this happened just after we went camping with grandpa. My son kept running in and out of the cabin while my little one was taking a nap . Granpda told him to go do his thing outside, and my son was completely shocked! ;p Once he discovered that it was kind of fun to "water the plants" we had a hard time stopping him from whipping it out in public, including shopping center parking lots. Grandpa left us shortly after that but his legacy lives on - I think it's very fitting that he taught his grandson the most basic of outdoor survival techniques. He's 5 now, and a bit more discriminating. Except when he's out on our deck and suddently feels the urge. (we live on a large property with no neighbors) We occasionally have to remind him to shout a warning - lookout below! posted by

Hahaha, countygirl. I was just changing my 15 month old granddaughters diaper when one of the boys I babysit (he just turned 5) asked me why she doesn't have a private. I briefly explained that boys privates are on the outside and girls privates are on the inside. I'm gonna let mom know he's inquiring incase the question comes up again, hehe, I'll let her explain the details if she so chooses. When you work in a pre-school you get a lot interesting questions...especially when kids are about 3 and up and wanna know how the baby got in your tummy? Or, when you have a baby and they wanna know how you got the baby out of your tummy. posted by

I'm watching my nephews and niece today. As I was changing my nieces diaper my 4 year old nephew came up and just stared with a puzzled look on his face. He then asked, "Why does she have two bums?" LOL I immediately thought of this blog!

WELL...this isnt so much what my 3 year old son (now 25) said, but what he did. I was standing outside of Burger Spot in the phone booth, long before cell phones were around and i was talking to my mom on the phone. My 3 year old decided he had to go pee pee. I was holding him by the hand and i looked down at him, he was standing right outside the phone booth going pee... not only was he going pee but he was aiming it up in the air like it was a fountain. I was sooo embarrassed but the patrons in Burger Spot found the situation quite amusing.

Peace - thanks for your story. I was babysitting that day of the pinching eposode and I called my daughter at work and we both laughed so hard our sides ached. And of course, that sweet baby laughed too - she didn't know why but she sure knew grama was having fun! Makes my heart so very happy.

To Lori.....She loves you because of your hands! Many years ago I had no choice but to take my 4 year old daughter (she is now nearly 26) with me to an OB/GYN appointment. As this was a small practice with only a nurse and an office manager, we had to take Sarah into the room with us. The nurse kept her busy with a book in the corner of the room that was behind "the table". The doctor did his job quickly and Sarah never asked or said anything about it......Until we were at my in-laws for dinner (with the grandparents and several friends). Out of no where this sweet brown-eyed, curly-haired Holly Hobbie look-a-like says...."My Mommie's doctor looked her bagina!" and then went back to eating dinner as if nothing had happened! My husband's grandmother spit iced tea all over the table. We all laughed until we cried. Art Linkletter was soooo right! posted by

My 16 month old grand daughter isn't putting sentences together yet, but I thought this was real funny. Grama (me) was holding her and we were reading her favorite book and she reached over and kept pinching the top of my hand. I couldn't figure out what she was doing and it kinda hurt. Finally, I said, "ow." She looked up at me with those big beautiful eyes and pinched me again. I than realized she was trying to pick up the raised veins on the top of my hand. She has finally noticed old lady hands. I think she loves me in spite of my hands. posted by

My 3 year old daughter matter of factly announced at the dinner table recently that "girls don't have fur under their arms, like dad does." My 5 year old son replied, "But mom has fur on her legs!" Just days later my little princess noted that I had hair in my nose. When I explained that everybody has little hairs inside their noses, she shook her head from side to side, while saying, "No momma, I only have boogers." posted by

My son once told me that the creed among the men in the family is that "We do everything we're told, but we'll never do anything until we told."I loved it.
