Mom Voyage 
“Mommy, did you eat that baby in your belly?”
Here’s one that isn’t a question:
husband: Isn’t that Jamie Lynn Spears? Isn’t she pregnant?
Three-year-old: Yeah, isn’t she PREGNANT?
I have fielded none today as I don’t have the right age kids for this…But some of my more memorable ones from Dear Oldest?
Did I used to have 2 penises and if so did mine fall off too? – In response to our 3rd baby’s umbilical cord falling off.
When can I take MY teeth out – IN response to my father letting my son see he had dentures.
Do Chapanese people pee in the ocean like we do? What does their pee pee ocean taste like?

“Mom, where was I when you were a little girl?”
Did he get ketchup with his pancakes?
Max also told me he knew a dead person: Grunty’s teacher. (Karrie said one of Grunty’s old teachers died recently, so maybe he heard them talking about it.)
But the thing about Karrie’s friend Beth was really eerie.
MamaTried: Yes, he got ketchup with his pancakes. It’s basically corn syrup (like the syrup at the restaurant) plus tomatoes, so it’s slightly better than the regular syrup, in my book. (Kind of the Bill Cosby chocolate-cake-for-breakfast reasoning, but it works.)
I’ll have to catalog some of Max’s best questions to me. I don’t think they stand up to these, though.
LOL James. I love the Bill Cosby line of reasoning.
The dead people comments are freaking me out! Ivy has always had an imaginary friend and one day, when she was 2.5-3 I asked her where “Gulah” lived. Her response: “in our house before it burned down.”
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
