Pregnancy - LOL!

by Nick Hilleshiem
(Davenport, IA, USA)

My wife was pregnant with our second child and she was getting close to the end of the pregnancy and was getting quite big.

One night my wife was trying to get out of her recliner chair after relaxing after dinner and was having a bit of trouble. When she finally got up, she said, "Oh My God, I am getting so big.

To our surprise, within seconds our 4-yr-old son chimed in with "It's not our fault you went out and got fat."

To this day, it is the funniest think I have ever heard or witnessed. I tell this story constantly to all of our friends. Everybody loves it. I think she laughed sooooo hard that we almost had our second kid right there on the spot!

Editor's Note
So whose fault was it? Funny! I wonder why he thought she might blame someone else! Just as well laughing doesn't bring on labor!

Thanks for your entry into our Funny Kids Quotes contest Nick,

Good luck!

The Secret

by Nita
(Australia)

I have a 4 year old, and a two year old, and have just found out I am pregnant with number three. We decided we wanted to tell our kids before it became general knowledge, so I asked our 4 year old boy, if he would like the idea of a new brother or sister.

He loves babies, and has been fabulous with his little sister, and was really excited. We had a bit more conversation about babies growing in my tummy etc, then I said, "we haven't told anyone yet, so for a little while it is going to be our secret, ok?"

He has been learning about secrets at preschool and was very excited to have a big secret to keep.

When his Daddy got home that night, Dad said, "what do you think about having a new baby brother or sister?" because he knew I was going to talk to him about it today.

Master four stood up and put his hands on his hips and said,

"Who told you? Mommy said it was supposed to be a secret?"

I have never laughed so hard in my life!

Made In China

by Lisa Kaminsky
(Southborough, MA)

My little girl was born in China and came to the States when she was 18 months old. One day she was examining her stuffed animal and noticed from the manufactures tag that it was made in China. She thought for a moment and said, "Hey! I was made in China, too!"

Editor's Note:
Lisa that is so cute! I bet she is too! My brother was 1/2 Chinese and adopted, and he was the cutest baby ever. I love her Made in China, that's a good one!

Good Luck!
Annie D :)

Annie Recommends


There is so much confusing information out there about parenting, it can be hard to know how to cover all bases.

If you are worried about your child's development in some areas, or want some ongoing expert parenting tips, then check out Dr Rosina's Inspired Children - Life Skills for Kids.

She has a carefully designed membership program that will give you activities and advice, delivered to your inbox each week/fortnight (depending upon membership level).

Each activity is designed to help your child develop key life skills like good self esteem, managing emotions and behaviour, health, nutrition, dealing with bullying and so much more.


Benefits for Parents
  • Stop feeling guilty about not spending time with your child
  • Know your child is learning key life skills
  • Stop worrying
  • Know rather than hope that your child is on the right track
  • Curbs undesirable attention seeking behaviours in your child
  • Know that your time is quality time doing the activities with your child
  • Educational as well as fun
  • Sense of satisfaction at the positive difference you are making in your child?s life
  • Creates an opportunity for you to bond with your child
Benefits for Children
  • Creates a strong platform for a happy, balanced and successful life
  • Helps them to know you are interested and care
  • Develops self confidence
  • Develops resilience
  • Develops independence and practical life skills
  • Improves their ability to communicate
  • Develops emotional intelligence
  • Helps them to feel happier and most importantly, helps them to feel more loved!
  • Educational and fun

Dr. Rosina McAlpine is an Associate Professor at the University of Sydney, and has received numerous awards for her work in education. Her program is a holistic approach to child development spanning 7 key areas of life.

I think this is a great resource for busy Moms - it takes ages sifting and sorting what your child needs, or finding a great activity that has a good learning focus for your kids. It covers all bases, and makes it easy to spend quality time with your kids, knowing they are learning valuable skills that will be with them for life. Life Skills For Kids would also make a great resource for homes-schoolers.

Click N Kids would have to be one of my subscribers most popular programs, and from what they say, it is mostly because the kids have fun while they are learning. In fact they don't even realize they are learning! Click N kids are using the Looney Tune Characters now in their phonics program, which of course kids just love.
