To 4 yr old daycare girl on her first day here with new baby brother "stop smelling your brother's butt!' She spent the entire day sniffing his butt, telling me how good his diapers smelled, etc
and to a 7 yr old yesterday "stop licking yourself!" What is it with kids licking themselves if they get a boo boo? does someone teach them to do that or is it just some sort of instinct?- Flag

"No, the dog is not a cylinder" <--to my 6.5 year old today during a discussion of/lesson on 3-D shapes. We concluded that she is more of a box (rectangular prism) if we MUSt call her something other than "dog shaped"Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!- Flag

Today I said, "Pull your sisters wedgie!" Then I laughed and was like I can't believe I just said that. Stupid swimsuitsI swear I had to adjust dcg2 100 times today.
Haha. I did help her again btw cuz I laughed imagining her 4yr old brother trying to pull her wedgie out omg.- Flag

to dcd - "his poop was firm today, so I flushed it. I didn't think you would want it. I'm sure he will give you lots of poop this weekend"
6m dcb had been exclusively breastfed, so his poop was always soft. This was the 1st poop since we started him on solids. They cloth diaper, so they see everything in his diapers.
my 16 year old daughter was dying laughing.- Flag

"Cars don't care to look fo you guys, so stay with me!"
"Don't eat that!"
"OMG do NOT jump on your brother, you'll kill him" (As I was catching MY dd trying to jump from the bunk bed onto her brother who was on all 4's like a horsie during a nap. Thankfully, I caught her MID AIR, and all because I thought it was too quiet too quickly!)
"No! Stop putting the cat's water in your sippy, NOW"
"We don't eat the dog food!" (repeated for cat food too!)
"No, those are cones, not basements" (my son insisted construction cones were "scary basements"
"DD! Check DS'S POOP please"
"You need meat on your bones, kid"
"DS, (2yo) your poop smells like lavender. why does it smell like lavender?" (Then I smelled his mouth, he'd eaten a glade plug in, little weasel)
Same 2yo DS after nappin in his room: "OMG we do NOT unscrew your lamp, give me that screwdriver!" (the kid was pretty good though and actually asked if he could put back together so I supervised and he COULD!)- Flag

This is just another in the long chain of "don't lick" things. At the splash pad the other day, I had to tell a toddler not to lick the tree. There were 2 dads there with their kids, and you could see them shaking their heads, trying not to laugh. (He's autistic and looks way too old to be licking trees.)- Flag

I did a blog post once on the Top 10 Weird Things Heard in our House:
1. “Could you please not sneeze into the batter?”
– Daughter in Law to my five year old while making cheesecakes.
2. “This isn’t my band-aid – why is it on my knee?”
– My 11 yr old, staring at his left knee.
3. “Where are your clothes?”
– Said often to my two yr old granddaughters.
4. “Well, I was trying to hit a bug with this cantaloupe…”
- The 11 yr old again, on how he hit his head.
5. “Don’t take your pants off and dance on the table!”
– Daughter in Law to two-year-old nekkie stage granddaughter.
6. “Stop licking the cat!”
– Me to the 3 yr old. Poor Kitty!
7. “What are you eating and where did you get it?”
– Any adult to any of the younger four children.
8. “Oh! It’s not my bra; it’s me!”
– 19 yr old daughter, after discovering what was bugging her all day.
9. “It smells like a llama in here.
– 16 yr old daughter, for no apparent reason.
10. “Why are you naked?!”
– Me to my 3 yr old, way too often.
Oh yes, they call him the Streak; fastest thing on two feet…- Flag
