Mellow afternoons with plenty of laughter seemed to be this weekends highlights. When it seems that this life although mainly a wonderful thing can sometimes unexpectedly have you on your knees, its good to know there is still laughter. And sun too, although I had almost forgotton that it existed until Saturday. There was even talk of coat removal too! Blimey what did the weather think this was!? Spring? ;0)
Our girls are usually a good source of fun and laughter. A mix of mine and DBB's grown up views I guess and the Boo's innocence can a pretty mundane conversation turn into a riotous giggle for us all. The topic in question was about bikes. On route to my parents on saturday afternoon Lala wondered why the saddles on bikes seemed wider on girls than boys. DBB pointed out that physically girls and boys are different. "Oh you mean they have Willies?" she said knowledgeably. Which the mere mention of anything rude sounding has Boo in giggles within seconds. "Yes" DBB conffered. "And of course the other bits" "Other bits?" Complete mistyfycation at this point. "Oh you mean their bottoms?" "Well no, bottoms on male and females are the same well apart from size they differ for everyone." "What bits then?" By this time I was in fits and burst in with *"Dilberts!"* Which then had DBB busting a gut. "Dilberts?" Lala asked by this time completely confused. DBB did put her out of her misery by this time and explained the finer points of the male anatomy. Yes me and the Mister do have a childish sense of humour.Well it keeps us amused! And yes we are quite open about male and female differences with the girls too.
It is those small little gems of life though that do make memories. So does me remembering the camera! So on our Sunday afternoon walk I was able to snap away at our usual park that we love walking round. I have put pictures from this place on here a load of times but it never ceases to amaze me how it never looks old there is always something different to look at everytime. Sadly though I didn't get to snap a picture of the robin that had us all enthralled last week. Too many people around this time.
Never mind there are always Dilberts to have a snigger over!............

Testicles. (And I never thought I would put them on my blog! he he he he)
11 lovelies said this ......:
You did have me sniggering too - we refer to them as conkers and our girls know all about boys bits and girl bits, but only by the silly names we give them as they are a tad too young for that 'birds and bees' chat, but I'll be there one day - explaining it all to them.
Hang on - I had 'the chat' with the eldest boy hmmmmmmm.....maybe it'll be dads turn next time - if they can stand the embarrasment!
Nina :)
you had me smiling. We have always used proper words with the girls. Penis, Vulva, testicles, breasts etc.
It did not stop amusing mishaps from time to time. Oldest Daughter sat down and proudly told his grand father that he had a peanut, he said that sorry darling, I dont have any peanuts. she said yes you do grandad, you have a peanut and you wee out of it. Startled silence followed by laughter. she is now 22 and loves to be reminded of that story.
We had a lot of questions asked here this weekend too on a similar but a bit more detailed vein! Always difficult to know when to start the conversation but Miss. K. started asking herself so the opportunity presented itself! Wasn't the weather great this weekend - love the photo of the trees and the sky and love your daughters' tartan coat!

Gorgeous photos :D
My then three year old once decided to enquire of the vicar, who had called to discuss his baby sister's Christening, why he and she had 'different bottoms'. Kids, don't you just love 'em!
Your just as cute as your story....so funny!
