• Stop drinking my moisturiser
• Get off your sister’s head
• Spaghetti pasta is not a toy
• Why are you both naked?
• If you don’t stop tearing up fairies, I’ll take them away
• It’s bed time, not ‘running around pretending to be a cat’ time
• Who pooed in the bath?
• It’s a sleeve, not a hanky

About me
I’m Jacqui – a 40+ freelance journalist & lifestyle blogger.
I’ve been a magazine features writer for over 20 years, and in 2009 became one of the UK’s original ‘Mummy Bloggers’.
I’m proud mum to two funny & spirited girls; born summer 2008 and autumn 2010, and we all live just outside London with OH and our youngest baby – a miniature dachshund, named Frankie.

Ha! Sadly this week, I’ve had to say, “That’s my arm, not a hanky.” Aren’t kids great? 😉
Ewwwwwwwwww!! 😉
Hehehe…brilliant! I found myself saying “Those are breast pads, not Mickey Mouse ears” yesterday!
I’ve said ‘Get off your sister’s head’ so many times this week. I really hope this is going to become a regular feature!
The strangest for me this week has got to be “Stop pretending your brother’s a toilet” which was actually repeated several times “.
Ha – love it! That wins first prize for weirdness 😉
That’s what you get for taking her to Disneyland… 😉
Am thinking of opening it up, and collating everyone’s weirdest comments of the week. So remember to write them down!!!!!!
My boys are definitely weird bless them, I’m going to have to start writing some of it down to embarrass them with when they’re older – the joy of being a mummy 😉 Haha!
