S: Oh, well I must not be poorly anymore. As long as my heart is beating, I'm ok.

Ooooh, S!
C: we need a man in this house, Mummy*
Me: Whaaaaat? And what about Daddy?
C: no, Daddy doesn't need a man.
Me: errr... Daddy is a man
C starts laughing like a loon: no, he's Daddy!
* LB found it a lot less funny than I did and wondered where C got that from. It's a direct quote from the Aristocats.

Poor LB!
I know this is a daft question but in the English version the Mum cat is French and the others not, what happens in the French version?

In the French version everybody is French except the geese, who are English. Uncle Waldo!

Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
To be fair, I've heard people say his name and could swear some people actually say it that way!
When Mr J turned up to pick up S tonight, one of the little girls quite sinisterly told him 'he's not your baby anymore'.

Half-ten?! Half-ten?! I've never been up at half-ten! What happens?
Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
In a non sinister way, she's right, he's your giant toddler.
It was more the way she imparted this very serious news, learned on the playground, than getting his name wrong.

I'm pleased to know that my rubbishness in the kitchen is already noted by my two-year-old as today B said "Daddy does cooking" - I asked him what Mummy does and he said "Mummy does eating it"

I think it was followed with something like 'you can't take him'. They all seem to want to keep him and try to prevent us taking him home.violet wallop wrote:In a non sinister way, she's right, he's your giant toddler.

They actually still calls him 'tiny baby'. One said 'hello tiny baby's mommy' to me yesterday when I dropped him off.

Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
Mummy does eating it is definitely the best way to be
I was out earlier and J posted on FB that he had overheard these snippets of conversation from Thing 1 and Thing 2
"If you don't play I'm going to hit you with this axe" ...
"Back off crazy tiger boy" ...
"Don't touch it! It's not dads, it's not anyone's!" ...
"There, got it ... Now where did I put my shovel" ... "
"I mean it, I'm getting my axe"
Oh and last week, I heard Joe telling J that he couldn't get out of bed because his bum pit was sore. I asked him to show me where his bum pit was and it turns out he meant bum cheek

Alice has more words than sounds - she says 'rabbit', but can't make 'ra' or 'bi' or, well, 't' yet, so she calls rabbits 'hat'. Theo is 'Ga'. Apples are 'arpen', and oranges are 'parben', which I think is her way of saying they are not quite an apple.
Anyway, we were naming the parts of our faces, as you do. She said "Har" for hair, then pointed to my eye.
"Pab," she said.
"Eye," I said.
She stroked my eyebrow and said "Pab brow."
I think she's decided her language is best and we must conform.

Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
I love that Daire. In a similar vein S won't say head, he knows what it is, but calls it 'at (hat). I ask him where is head is and he touches his head and says 'at He also won't say 'one' and if you try and get him to he just responds with 'two' every time
