Have I mentioned before that 2-year olds are a piece of work sometimes? Seriously, some of the things that come of out Isla’s mouth are both hilarious and bizarre. Needless to say, here’s another edition of Out of the Mouths of Babes!

While I’m sitting at the computer working on a column:
Isla: Uh-oh, Mommy! There’s a bug! (She then walks up to me and wipes bug guts on my arm.)

While eating hot dogs for lunch, cows walk by behind our house…
Me: Look Isla, cows!!
Her: MOOOO!
Me: We eat cows, you know.
Her: Uh-huh.
Me: You know, your hot dog is also a cow.
Her: *blank, confused stare*

In Target, while I’m kneeling/squatting down looking at nail polish…
Her: You going potty, Mommy?
Me: No, Isla, I’m not going potty.
Her: MOMMY POOPING!

While in the hardware store, walking down the bulk nuts & bolts aisle…
Her: Look, Mommy! (Pointing at the random nuts & bolts)
Me: Those are nuts and bolts. We don’t need any of those!
Her: They’re BEEAAUUUtiful!

While at the dinner table, she stops what she’s doing and out of nowhere exclaims:
“Mommy?! YOU’RE DRUNK!”
