Kids say the darnest thing...

Scenario: I am at the O.B. for my yearly checkup and C&C had to come with me;

Oh, this should be interesting...

Cassie: "Mom, why are you getting naked?"

Me: "The doctor needs to make sure that mom is healthy, now turn around, sit down, and play your nintendo DS"

C&C are so intrigued with what I am doing having to wear a paper robe and waiting for the doc. to come in.

Me: "What was I thinking to bring you two?"

Doc. comes in and the check up begins

Cassie: "Mom, what is he doing?"

Me: "Cassie, don't worry about it, sit down and play your game"

Carson: "WOW! This is better then playing the DS"

The doc. just smiles

Me: "Both of you, go sit down and knock it off!"

Doctor: "Go ahead and lay down" (I think we all know where this is going)

trying to make small talk with the doc because it is already awkward.

Cassie: "Mom?"

Me: "Not now Cassie"

Cassie: "Mom, do I need to tell dad?"

Awkward just became a total understatement with Cassie.

The Doc at this point gives a little giggle and I feel that I need to apologize.

Lessons learned from this:

* Kids never need to attend your OB appointment

* Cassie is out to get me

* Your OB appt. can even be more awkward

* A year won't be long enough till I have to show my face in the doc's office again

* Kids say the darnest things anytime they feel like it

(No matter what you are doing or what may is going on around you.)
