My daughter had her first conversation last night, after she finished her bottle:
DD2: More
MrsF: It's all gone
DD2: Where?
MrsF: In your tummy
DD2 (sits up and looks at tummy): Oh!Last edited by TheFaQQer; 12 December 2007, 12:14.Comment

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

My eldest daughter's first word was "bugger".
When she was about 2 and a half, I was sitting watching telly with her, and she sighed and said "It's so ******* hard, Daddy".Comment
