  6. If it's sticky, it must go in my hair.
  7. If it's bath time, I must run around naked until I'm caught.

ha ha ha ha ha !!! Those were great and so true!!!

How about... anything in the way of food will be eaten if it is declared Mummy's.

I love these.

I am also going to add 'I will stay still long enough to have my nappy removed, but not my bum wiped or a new nappy put on'.

Patti said...

Too funny!!! Great list!! Your lil' guys are sooooo cute! :)

Carina said...

All of those are so true. I would add, "if it's small, I must stick it in the most inconvenient place possible" (ie Coins in the seat belt buckle)

another favorite around here is, "if Mommy says it's hot, I must check for myself."

funny TT list, thanks for sharing and visiting my site.

Robin said...

So true.

I'll add "what's mine is mine, what's yours is mine, and if I want it it's mine."

So glad my little one is finally outgrowing this stage...

LOL Awsome list! Thanks for stopping by mine.
I would add - "If its after bed time, I must be a bundle of energy, but if its time to get up, I must be terribly groggy and irritable!"

So hilarious so true (that's probably why it's so funny!) enjoy....

If it's a hole, fill it, i.e. toothpaste in the drain, oatmeal in the speakers, beads in the nose.

These have all happened in our house. Your list is hilarious and couldn't be more accurate!

Susan Helene Gottfried said...

My kids were better behaved, thankfully. They're also sort of boring...

But here's another one for you: If Mom's on the phone, we need her NOW.

Mine have yet to outgrow that one. Maybe one day...

Happy TT!

It doesn't matter who originally authored this list but it is TRUE. And I'm finding out each one of them now with my little one. Keeps us moms busy but having fun too.
