The daftest things your kids did when they were growing up.

[Jeannine]

 What tales/photos would you share with  your future daughter/son in law when visiting about the antics of  their intended  as a child.

I had a son who always tried costumes on for me when I made them for a show.. we have some wonderful pictures with him dressed as Scarlett from Gone with the Wind.

Also some from Sweet Charity,South Pacific etc.

You can guess the rest..

I only made the girls costumes by the way.

More cute than daft.... but hey, it's a good excuse for me to post this footage of Annabelle. She had got bored of playing "Duck, Duck, Goose"...



We have some good piccies of her playing her keyboard in the nude for when she's older too...

Now, Jeannine, did he turn out with any particular gender clothing preference? My mother has a piccie of me in my sister's tutu somewhere!!

got pics of my 2 lads being washed in a washing up bowl, not long after being born..mind you, they didn't do that to themselves   ;D
youngest one running around aged 3 in just his dad's cycle helmet, then with his legs in his dad's jacket aged 6..then eating his cream egg from between his toes, aged 14..mind you, he wouldn't care who I showed them to  ;D

3 year old....
'Whens it tomorrow Mummy?'
Me: In the morning!

Next morning...
Is it tomorrow now?

Me....'Noooooooo, its tomorrow in the morning'

Next day
Is it tomorrow now?

Me....Noooooooo...its tomorrow in the morning.
3 year old.......'You should it would be tomorrow today :-\'

No darlin, its tomorrow in the morning!

Next day....
'so its tomorrow today?'  :-\

No darlin, its tomorrow, tomorrow

........and on and on it went for goodness how long, but oh how I love to tell that story and see my now 18 year old cringe  ;D  ;D


Oh and dont ever get me onto the conversation of whether or not he could 'fly' down the stairs, yes it was about the same age and he was so suggestive in his thoughts that I dreaded the day when he would actually put his ideas into practice  :-X

I was gettting rid of some dressing up costumes from Ikea onto Freecycle.  Consisted of a monkey headdress, tail and paws and an elephant headdress and paws.  So at age 12 I made them model them so I could take a pic and put it up on the site lol. No doubt that one will come back to haunt them!

I've got a good one of my two crying their eyes out in the bath because I wouldn't let them stay up to watch Colditz as they'd been naughty.  Nasty mummy  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

My son turned out to be long haired, very wavy, with very sweet huge eyes..but boy is he ever a lady killer. He is actually very confident in any situation  and we also have one of him in a tartan tu tu.

Honey bee that story is priceless, ver similar to the one we used to spin to the kids about the man who lit the cats eyes on the road. Or the bus that went to  Priv Atee..I never kept my promise to take them one day.. they always got to excited when they saw a PRIVATE on thr front of a bus."

Liska..one of my favourite things in the world is to get the album out...guess what went in his school book on graduation!!

Cream eggs from the toes...oh I will never eat another one!!

Super piccy Ollie..aaahh.

My son stuffed his teddy bear up the chimney as he didn't want a dirty old man to come down the chimney (ie Father Christmas).  Told this to my friends at work when we met, with my son aged about 30 for lunch, son wasn't amused.   Didn't find Teddy Bare, as son had cut his hair, until we tried to light a fire and found teddy and a blanket stuffed up the chimney and he admited he was frightened of Father Christmas coming down the chimney at night.  I think he would rather he had rung the front door bell.  In fact this probably not daft but rather sensible.
