I've menaced SonofV this week with threats of zomblebees. It is humorously effective.

Can't quite distinguish their voices from not-undead (living dead? argh.) bees. "Bzzzzzzzzzzzz". Yeah.. not gettin it.

I was sitting here looking at The Cellar, and Max came and sat next to me and said, "I see dolphin", to which I of course responded, "No, it's a shark". What makes it funny is that I wasn't even looking at a thread with images.

Have Max and Coco (the dog) had any fun interactions recently?

Poor Max is going to grow up confused about the whole shark/dolphin difference. This could have ... consequences.

I was scratching my nephew's back for him. He pulled his shirt up and told me to scratch inside. He looked in the mirror and saw his nipple. He went, "Huh?" Put his finger on his nipple and said, "Flea mountain." I was like, "Flea mountain?" He replied, "Yes, flea climbs on mountain." I was cracking up inside but tried not show it. Should I have told him it's called a nipple? Frankly, I got no idea where he got that term.

Cleo? They're always doing something silly. lol When he's outside, she follows around after him all the time. One of the phrases I hear very often is, "Go way Cleo!" Max pronounces it key-o though. He's not to good with L sounds just yet. It's pretty funny because it's often accompanied by a shove from him, but she's so tall he can't even see over her back now.

That is so cute.

What happens when Cleo is otherwise occupied? Does Max then go and see what she's up to?

She's never otherwise occupied when he's outside.

Last night, a kitten accompanied me along the street from the bus-stop for about 3 houses. I thought it was going to follow me home, but it must have jumped through the fence into one of the yards.

At the doctor's office, trying to entertain Minifob with the only book on hand: oversized, full-color anatomy diagrams. So we're looking at the page about the urinary system, and I'm explaining how his juice goes into his stomach and through his kidneys, etc. and comes out as pee-pee. The diagram included some blood vessels as well, and down the middle of the picture were the major artery and vein of the abdomen, color-coded red and blue as usual.

Minifob yells out, "Oh! I know! And this tube is for the hot pee-pee, and this one is for the cold pee-pee!"

I've been wavering on posting this story, but it's just so funny.

My nieces cousin took two of the girls shopping. Dr Cuz just got her MD. She is pretty and young. I hate her. Just kidding, she's great. She was getting a dress for a function and the girls were running dresses back and forth to the dressing room.

The just turned 6 year old said, in I imagine a stage whisper, "L....you need to pull your underwear out of your butt!" L replies that they're supposed to be like that. A says "NO, they are IN YOUR BUTT!" L replies that it's a thong and that's how they're supposed to be.

A says "Well...that's just gross!"

HA! My girl!

The subject of this story is now 15… .perhaps I should tell him of it soon but it happened.. he said this when he was about 5…

My wife gave his mum some little floral scented sachets…. You know the nasty things… They smell of Roses, Lavender, Thyme, etc…
Well as they lived near a housing estate with streets named after Lavender, thyme, etc this little boy picked them up one by one and said this is like the street(rue) Lavender, and this one is the street Thyme and as he got to the last one he said this must smell like… and just gave the name of his street.

They live (then and now) on “Chemin de Poussy”

And yes you pronounce Poussy pretty much like you think.
My wife, our friend and myself just spit laughing.
