…I couldn’t resist.
Halia’s got a pretty decent vocabulary considering her 20 months. A good portion of her vocabulary naturally consists of body parts, and she gets a lot of joy out of identifying them. Some body parts can really only be observed and explored when going diaper-free, of course, and Halia makes the most of being bare-bummed.
Tonight as I was diapering her for bedtime she was grabbing her bottom and shouting out “bum!” with glee.
“Yes, bum,” I agreed, fiddling with diaper tabs. The next logical thing was for her to put her hands on her vulva, which she did. “And what’s that called, Halia?” I asked her, though I know she knows the word very well.
Which is why I was rather surprised when she answered instead, “Meow!”
(Well. I guess that works, too.)
*dies*
Oh, I love it! She’s just as logic as children are before grown-ups have managed to take it out of them…
AHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!! You and Kara have the most entertaining kids out there.
Oh, man. Too funny!!
TOO FUNNY!!!
I am still laughing at this post this morning!
Thanks Stacie- we find you pretty darn entertaining too!
Oh MY! How the heck did she make that connection. Pure chance or did she catch “adult-speak” :-S
I’m pretty sure it was just chance; she HAD been wearing a t-shirt with a cat on it all day. 🙂
classic!
That made me laugh. Luckily not loud enough that I’d have to explain it to co-workers. 🙂
Peeing myself over here! THAT is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time!!!!
hahahahhahahaahahahahahahahahahahaha 🙂
I told this story to a few moms and one pregnant friend over dinner on Friday. Few stories are funnier when I tell them than they are in my head but this one was way funnier when I heard myself say it. Everyone laughed.
What a riot!
