Okay, we visited DS and family today. His 4yo daughter, Emmie, is getting way too grown up:

Emmie's Mom, Jolene, just had breast surgery. When she came home after surgery, Emmie wanted to be picked up. So Jolene explained: "Emmie, Mommie just had surgery. Now I have balloons in my boobs and, if I pick you up, they'll POP!"

So what does Emmie do after her Mom got the stitches out?

Right! She went to the neighbors and announced: "My Mom just got stitches out of her boobs, but her balloons didn't pop!"

Got time for one more?

During our visit today, Emmie's little spaghetti strap top kept slipping down. So I said, "Emmie, pull up your shirt -- you're "girlie things" are showing."

To which she retorted: "Those aren't my girlie things! They're my BOOBS!" Right. She's 4.

thats probably the only thing i like about kids is they are so outspoken you can't help but laugh at some of the stuff they say.

Awww...Sometimes Grandma's say the darndest things! "Girlie-things" is SO cute!

My Grandmother used to say "bosoms" and we just thought that was the funniest thing we'd ever heard!! I don't hear that term too much these days. Although there are a bunch of new terms for them that I won't go into here!!!

All my aunties said that. Gone now, they be past 90 now. It's an old-fashion word now..

Twink - that's cute. I needed that laugh.

LOL, love the candid moments.

My friends' twins somehow confused their boobies with their elbows and would absolutely giggle and cringe if anyone said "elbow" in their presence. They were about 3 at the time and it put us in fits of laughter when we made the connection.

Thanks for the laugh! I haven't heard that word bosoms, for a long, long, time. My dear grandmother used to call them bubbies!

Since I only have four boys, I never got to use such words as "girlie things".

And I don't want to get started on what I had to hear.

Although my 18 yr. old that just had to have his appendix out did catch me on one in the emergency room. The nurse just finished giving him his pre-op shave, which is never a thrilling thing for a boy that age.

After she left, and he was just back with him mom and pop, he looked and said, "Man, I got a little worried she was going to head down to my 'boys'." I tried not to giggle since he was in so much pain! I've heard other terms before, but never heard them referred to as "my boys!" Goes along with girlie things, I guess.
