A Mash Of Monsters

I've decided the term for a collective of monsters should be known as a "mash".
I created these funny little characters last week whilst I had a sick child @ home.
To meet these critters & find out their names just follow this link.

"Only In Our House"

The time was 7.53am on a Friday morning, kids getting ready for school. Miss almost 11yrs asks me innocently "whats a condom mummy?" Master almost 9yrs calls out from other room "you don't wanna know" "yeah i do" calls back Miss almost 11yrs. The giggling has started amongst the children & I've still got my mouth opened in stunned silence!!!!! I march in to the room with Master almost 9yrs and ask "well what is it then" Master almost 9yrs has his fingers in his ears and says "if I tell, you cant ask me to say it again!" Much giggling (on his part) he explains very maturally what it is and of course was spot on. And here comes the best part. With a sparkle in his eyes & a serious look on his face he states "there's another kind (of condom) you know". "Really" I managed to squeak out & "what is that one?" I asked. "Well it's got a rubber band @ one end and it's made of rubber & it's really good for flicking ppl with!"Master almost 9yrs tells his now almost hysterically laughing mother. Oh and Miss almost 11yrs asked me cos when she asked her sister, Miss 12.5yrs, said "go and ask mum!!!!!" And why did Miss almost 11yrs ask me in the first place? Umm.....I didn't even think to ask. Why me, why don't they ever ask their father this stuff?

The Difference Between Boys & Girls

This is more of a guessing competition really. You just gotta love kids....... on a quiet Sunday afternoon a mother says "let's do some craft". The mother pulls out some new but old fashioned "dolly pegs". All the children join in the fun...guess which child made a cross bow with a "dolly" peg & a rubber band and only narrowly missed hitting their sibling in the head when it was fired perfectly across the lounge room floor, the "dolly" peg makes a gr8 missile!!!! Another child makes little ppl, u know, makes clothes & stuff..... The mother eventually decides that the potential for injury from flying "dolly" pegs isn't worth the trip to casualty on a quiet Sunday afternoon. "ok everyone time to pack up"
