The things they say



This is my most favorite stage with the girls. Spellbounding! The 4th of July and New Year's Eve all wrapped into one. They are so more cognizant of their turf. Sometimes too much. As I learned today.....

Abbey: "Mommy, what's that"? Squenting her little eyes to get a closer look.

Mommy: "What, baby". As I'm stepping out of the shower.

Abbey: "That". Creeping closer to me eyes peeled on the target.

Mommy: "What?". Knowing with Abbey there is no 'unexpected".

Abbey: Her gaze fixed upon my meticulously trimmed mound and squeals, "Mommies who-who" and then typical of Abbey reaches up and rubs it. Note to self: Must shave it all off....

p.s. There has been some mention *snort* how the girls would react when they got a glimpse of the one eye'd peeper. The girls shower with daddy. A lot. It was only a matter of time before they would notice the differences. Daddy was stepping out of the shower one morning when it happened. As they were playing in our bathroom when Abbey stopped in her tracks. Her eyes got really, really big. She could tell there was something oddly different about daddy today. And then there it was. This gigantic (wishful)---don't lie you too) thing hanging like a tether ball between daddies legs bouncing side to side. It tickled her. She got this wicked grin on her face and started squealing. I turned around as she was whacking his "man tool" as if it were a punching bag. Just waiting for it to bounce back up! Katie seeing this wanted a hand at it too. Fm immediately took cover. He did not think it was as funny.....

Guess you better warn Daddy to lock the bathroom door! There's no telling what Abbey will say to him!!!

Haha. Today I was watching 3 kids age 8, 6, and 4. The 5 year old girl pulled a tampon out of my bag and asked what it was for.

Kids.

Ha ha ha!!!! That's hysterical, but I'm with Sam on this on. Forget what she might say. If she pet yours, no telling what she might do to his.

I always bath with my girls, I'm no biggie(except my thighs), they have seen Mommy.
Now the first time they laid eyes on Daddy running from shower to bedroom,it was hilarious, I still belly laugh just thinking about it, LOL.

Too funny...Annslee showers with us a lot (not all three of us at once) and so she has had an eye full and yeah, Daddy has been punched... the other night I was changing my 2 yr old nephew's diaper and Miss Nosy came over, pointed at his, laughed and said "Daddy" not sure Daddy wanted to be compared to that!

I feel bad that the kids see me nekkid all the time. I give such low expectations for them! And I mean, hangin' low, breastfed two babies expectations.

Traumatized.

I live with all boys. They've seen me naked tons. I make it a point to change in front of them so they don't freak out and I act like it's no big deal. Thye were more impressed when their 11 year old brother was sportin a lot of "wiener hair" as the 6 year old called it. LOL.

Sharon said...

I found you through Jewells and wanted to see your beautiful blog. you are funny too!!

Barbara said...

Just wait until they examine you with a magnifying glass and question every flaw......big fun!

Kathryn said...

Oh I'm so uptight!!!!! I no longer feel like I can change my clothes or come out of the shower with my son around. I don't want to traumatize him!!! Everything went south on me a long time ago.

You need to give up the day job and hook up with Harlequin Novels. I loved the description of your hubby's manberries.

Too funny! Mae asked me not long ago why I had "fur" between my legs. Acckk! It is winter!

Then, while at Disney, I took her in a "companion" bathroom so I would not have to worry about her crawling out from under the stall while I was in the middle of "doing my business". Lo and behold, they had a toilet and a urnial. She asked if the urinal was a boy potty and I said yes. Then she asked how they used it. And I said well they do it the boy way. All the while thinking okay she will quit asking now. NOT. She then looks at me while trying to sit on it and says "is that why they have a long bottom" To which I answered "yes they have a penis or doober (what I called it when I was little and thought it was a scientific term until I was a SENIOR in high school but we will not go there). And she then looks as if the light has come on and says Ohhhhh.. is that why they go like this and then makes the motions a man makes while readying himself to take a leak. Ahhhh...memories from the bathroom of Disney World!!!
