kids say the darndest things

jacob has become very inquisitive and observant. oh how wonderful, he is growing up and wanting to learn.... and saying some very truthful and honest things. this is how our conversation went yesterday morning, while we were talking about what happens with his food when he eats it: (we are on the verge of potty training here, and all things relating to the diaper or the potty are hot topics right now.)


mommy: it goes in your mouth, down your throat, into your tummy, and out your bum-bum.

jacob: in mouth, in hole, out the bum-bum

mommy: yea, that's pretty close! good job!

jacob: you have bum-bum.

mommy: that's right, i do have a bum-bum. and you have one too.

jacob: you have little bum-bum.

mommy: awww, thank you jacob!

jacob: no, you have big bum-bum.

mommy: :(

yes, he did put the emphasis on the word big.

so, when i was telling jesse about this conversation, he laughed. it made me sad all over again. and then he suggested that i "blog about it". so, here it is, honey. now everyone knows that my 2 year old thinks i have a big bum. all the more incentive to kick-off my new weight loss and exercise program. "what is it?" you ask. i don't quite know yet, i will have to get back to you on that one. all i know is that i have a little over 2 months before our trip to mexico, so i better get it figured out fast!

I'm sure Jacob meant it in the nicest way possible. You know, as in "bigger than his."

Hey, just be happy you didn't have a baby 4 months ago!

And I'd say you look pretty darn good so don't go too hard on yourself with your "program."

Ditto to Candace! You look smokin' hot for a mama of 2. ;-)

gimme a break cyd. you are completely ridiculous. it will be impossible for you to lose weight because there is nothing to lose.

The Talberts said...

ha. I agree with the others - you look terrific, Cydney.

I wasn't kidding when I said that you have supermodel legs.

I mean that in the most non-awkward way possible.

I agree, Cyd. You look absolutely wonderful...but, go ahead and kick off that exercise program to stay so, or you may end up 30 years later looking like his Gammie, who never thought it would happen to her. --Love you, Gammie

that's right, gammie, ain't nothin wrong with a healthy exercise to keep me in shape. i am, after all, ALMOST 30.
