Out of the Mouth of Mama

We all have our moments when we look back at what we just said and can’t believe we just said it. Here are a few of mine…

To Wing Nut: Stop kissing the fridge! No really, stop kissing the fridge.

To Wee Nut: Stop putting Duplos in the toilet, and wait, don’t drink toilet water out of them either!

To E Nut: Do you realize I am talking to you? You looked right at me while I was talking to you, turned around and skipped off like you were headed to tea with the queen. What? No we don’t have a queen, she lives in England. No, there is no king of England. Hey, listen, stop dragging your baby sister around by her feet. I don’t care if you think she likes it. Stop it.

To Wee Nut: Do not wipe your face with that baby wipe after wiping your baby sister’s butt with it. Stop, now there is poop on your face, don’t touch it, now it is on your hands. Wait, Honey Nut, get back here, stop you are still poopie. Stop, don’t move. Ewwww!

To Little Nut Nut: Pretending to eat doesn’t count, your plate is still full and you need to eat your dinner. No, you can’t pretend to be full, but you can pretend those green beans are trees or ice cream, no you can’t really have ice cream for dinner, I don’t know why I said that, I didn’t mean it.

…and then To Wee Nut: No, we are not eating ice cream for dinner. Scream all you want, you have to finish your dinner first.

(stupid ice cream comment, sigh)

To Honey Nut: What are you eating? Open your mouth. OPEN! Stop biting me. Gross, we do not eat old strange food from under the seat in the van.

And then there are the moments that I love…

To a crying E Nut, way to early in the morning: It is just a wind storm, you don’t need to cry, do you want to climb into bed with me?

To a Wee Nut attached to my leg: You are my best friend too.

To a hopping Little Nut Nut: Hey you, bounce on over here and give me a hug. And then stop hopping around the house.

To Wing Nut: Well, you are my favorite 9 year old.

To Honey Nut: You are the sweetest baby girl ever. For realz.

What do you find yourself saying to your kids that you can’t believe you just said?

    This is so funny and I can totally relate. Not too long ago I heard myself asking Michael (my four year old)”Why is the Barbie in the refrigerator?” His response “Cause she was bery hot.” lol

      Haha! That is funny, and it seems like a very logical explanation.

    I am laughing. There are so many things we say that you stop and think, did I really just say that? Unfortunately, I can’t think of any right now.

      LOL, I know Christina, when I thought of this post, there were twice as many quotes, but when the time came I couldn’t remember them.
