1. What would you do if your oldest child asks if he can smell your bottom?
- Turn around flabbergasted while ranting and raving about how gross and inappropriate that question was.
- Use this as a learning opportunity to explain the functions of the nose and the bottom and why we don't need to smell them like dogs do.
- Call older boy cousin immediately and insist that he never teaches your child anything. EVER. AGAIN.
- Call a babysitter and get out of the house alone because you "need time to think" of the answer.
- Pray with all your might that he will turn out to be a productive member of society, someday.
- or, walk faster and pretend you didn't hear the question.

LOL! probably laugh and pretend I didnt hear, but my sos would keep saying "mom"..."MOM".... "mom I am talking to you"
Keep those older boy cousins AWAY! Jason says that's where he learned all the "bad stuff". I have to agree with raquel, I would definately pretend not to hear, and if he persisted, i would probably say "NO! I am not a dog!" Hillarious, by the way, and definately BLOGWORTHY!
Keep away from the cousin, but beware of the "other" much older cousin too...
JP was kicked in his private and yelped "ouch my man berries" this was overheard at a recent one year old bday party.
Gotta watch those older cousins :)
LOL!! Not quite sure... I know I am only supposed to bubble in one answer... but I don't follow directions well. So, knowing me a combination of using it as a learning tool, but not as how our noses work, but as what is an appropriate and not appropriate question to ask his mother, or anyone for that matter, and then I would most certainly call in the older cousin.
I have another option. It's a diversion tactic I like to call, "Here, hold this!"
If my son seems really focused on something, I just hand him something random and say, "Here, hold this! Thanks!" Cell phones or keys work great! It seems to break the focus long enough for him to become re-focused on the object he's holding.
ROFL!!! All of the above? *grin* Hehehe...my favorite response of late to questions I don't want to answer is just to answer a question with a question: Why are you asking me that? Why do you need to know that? Can you give me some good reasons why I should answer that question? Hehehe! Thanks for the laugh!
Oh my goodness! I'm laughing so hard! I wish I could've witnessed that!
Haha! I won't have to worry about Z being "the older cousin" because Jamas is the original "older cousin", my poor poor children.
If Z tells Elle something like that she'll say "UH, my dad already told me about that"
So....what did you do?
All I have to say is we're learning some interesting things from our older cousin this week, too.
Umm, I guess you could move away like we did!
Alana, NO! No one is allowed to move away!!! You blaspheme!
I CANNOT stop reading this post!
