Good Laugh...off topic, not colic related

[mommyof2gurlies]

I just had to tell ya'll a funny story....
Okay...so take a look at this picture:



So, this poster is hanging on Mya's wall next to her bed. Every night her and I cuddle after Brooklyn goes to bed, and we talk about "stuff". Whatever Mya wants to talk about...whats bothering her in school...what she did today.....whatever.
So she said ... "Mommy, lets talk about the posters on my wall"
So we started talking about them...we get to the Beauty and the Beast poster...and she says "I know all their names mommy"
So i said "Tell me their names"
She starts listing them counter clockwise, starting with Belle. (She doesnt know their real names)
She starts... "Belle, thats Mr. Clock, Mrs. Pots, baby pot, Mrs. Tampon........" and her voice drifts off saying the rest of the names. I was half listening, and totally tired..and said "wait...who is that one???" She said "Mrs. Tampon..."
And i looked up and saw the broom guy. LOL. She thought that was "Mrs. Tampon" ROFL. I guess she just assumed, that thats what it was, and thats what her name was. I could see how it looked like a tampon to her, with the looped string at the top lol She was dead serious. She looked at me all confused not understanding what was so funny. I was DYING laughing.
I just had to share that one...it was pretty funny.

That's hysterical. Kids are so funny sometimes. You're lucky she didn't ask you what a tampon really was.

hahhahahahahahahahahaha!!!! I can't wait to tell people at work about that one!! AWESOME!

[mommyof2gurlies]

OH! But she DID!!! lol
She came into the bathroom while i was taking a bath...and said..."Mommy...whats a tampon for??"
I said "GO ask Daddy" lol
She went and asked him and he said "Its for cleaning up spills" LOL
I was like "God dangit babe! Shes smart...she knows that its not for THAT. You didnt have to tell her what it was for exactly..but GEEZ"
He said "well, then you should have told her " So i told her "They are for girls, when you get older. You dont need to worry about it yet"

Oh man Tamara, you are lucky. As a side note, that is freaking hilarious!! But Masie has known what a period was since she was like 2. She came into the bathroom one time when I was "cleaning up my spill" (LOL) and got all freaked out and asked me if I was dying, at 2 she asked me that, and I said no and since she had already seen it I had to explain that it was my period and I have it every month, blah blah blah... So every since then she will say to people if she knows I am on my period, "Oh mama's just on her period." But it sounded more like pewiod for a long time before she could say her R's. VERY embarrassing. So she totally knows what tampons are for. Now, my other girls, they had NO clue what a period was so when they saw it the first time, they seriously thought I was dying and so I let Masie explain it and they were okay with it. Kids are weird...

Yeah, this is making me very glad that I have a boy.

[mommyof2gurlies]

No doubt.
This guy just came to pick up Brooklyn's old exersaucer (she hates it nowdays...shes not interested in it anymore)
I gave it away on freecycle.
He has a 15 year old..and his wife is pregnant with GIRL triplets. HOLY CRAP!!!

[pamcrt]

I'm thinking vasectomy... I think I would have to seriously think about killing myself...

[mommyof2gurlies]

I was like..."wow 3 girls huh....one teenager RIGHT NOW, and two that will be teenagers at the same time..." He looked like he literally cringed. lol I'm serious, I felt bad for the guy. He said "I was hoping for a boy this time around..." He looked like he was about to cry!!! The poor guy!

[pamcrt]

yeah, that's what we were hoping for, but well, it's really all the guys fault anyway so they can only blame themselves!!

[mommyof2gurlies]

i know that the colic comes from hubby's side. All three of his girls...and his sister were colicky.
There have been no colicky babies on my family's side

[pamcrt]

Well, 2 out of my husband's 4 girls have been colicky and my oldest wasn't, so yah, I'm blaming him for that to.
