Tiny Talk Tuesday: January 25, 2011
I always look forward to sharing the cute things that my children come up with, and I love reading other's children's comments too. So I am glad I can link up to Tiny Talk Tuesday at Not Before 7. Click on the image above to head on over to check out other cute comments. Now, on to the comments from the last couple of weeks that I had the chance to write down.
We were sitting at the table eating dinner and daddy and I were trying to figure out what we were going to have for dinner the next night. We spell a lot so that the girls don't catch everything we are saying. However, Tabitha has been able to decipher a lot of our spelled out words so we have resorted to spelling backwards. On this occasion daddy said, "a-z-z-i-p for dinner tomorrow?"
Tabitha said, "What? Pizza?"
Okay, the double z's might have given it away, so I wanted to test it.
We spelled:
r-a-z-z-l-e
e-l-z-z-a-r
a-z-z-i-p
And there was no response from her at first. Then she said, "No, that doesn't spell pizza. You spelled pizza wrong."
Yesterday Steven was getting ready to make Tabitha's birthday cake. Tabitha was in the room and he said, "I am going to make b-i-r-t-h-d-a-y-c-a-k-e. There, spell that one." (to Tabitha)
She said, "Birthday Cake"
On Monday's the town fire hall siren goes off for a test, scaring the children at first. (We live right across the street from it) Today it went off, then it went off again, not sure why, we never saw any fire trucks or ambulances going out. Several minutes after it had stopped Amelia said, "The siren's not on. It's back to its home. Now it won't scare me anymore."
Also tonight, while we were sitting around the table during dinner, we somehow got on the topic of babies. If I have another baby, Tabitha is insisting the baby's name is going to be Fluffy. Daddy mentioned the next baby's name should be Harold after him (he really would love a boy). Someone made a comment wondering what it would be if the baby was a girl.
Daddy said, "If it's not a boy, we'll put it back."
Tabitha responded, "We can't put it back in mom's uterus." They fixed the hole in mom's uterus. Not with tape. I don't know how."
Daddy asked, "Superglue?"
Tabitha said, "No! I don't know what they use."
Daddy said, "Where do they put the hole?"
Tabitha said, "Right here on her chest."
Daddy said, "Actually, that's her belly. Why did they put a hole in Mommy's belly?"
Tabitha answered, "So it could get out better. I just started growing after my baby size. But I still have baby teeth when they fall out, they'll be all gone again."
Amelia chimed in, "I have baby teeth because I'm a baby on WiiFit."
Daddy brought it back to the original conversation, "How did they fix the hole in mommy's belly?"
Amelia, "NO!"
Daddy: So there is still a hole?
Tabitha: Yeah there is. Mom is there still a hole in your uterus?
Mom: No.
That is most of the conversation. I missed a little here and there.
And I am going to leave you with a little comment from my oldest. No he is not a tot, he is 18, but I had to share this. He enjoys watching the comedian Jeff Dunham, especially with Peanut. Yet he realizes some of his language is far removed from what we consider decent. The other day we were talking about how funny he is, even I think he is funny. Steven said he was "So much swearful."
I just happened to have my speaker unmuted and am enjoying the beautiful songs you are sharing on your blog. I opened a page back up after closing it and listened while working my way through the blog hop.

ReplyDeleteWe've taken to spelling in French for those very reasons.

OH my word "is there a whole in your uterus?" LOL!
ReplyDeleteI can't stand when they get THAT good at spelling :) Throws everything off!
Wow, the spelling thing is no longer working! Funny. Too smart. Your kids are so inquisitive!
