Children should be equipped with mute buttons.

Desperate for a couple new shirts for our vacation I loaded up the kids and the double stroller and headed to the mall.  I grab the few summer type shirts that they are still selling and tried to maneuver my stroller into a dressing room with the kids.  There I am in a small room standing in front of a mirror the size of the room trying on different shirts while my two children watched.
I tried on the first shirt that was cut just a little too low for my liking.  My pancake cleavage was just not looking hot.  We moved right along to the next one and it wasn't any prettier and much more revealing than the first.  Trying to whisper but not succeeding my daughter says, Mommy I can see your boobies.  I gave her the look and told her to be quiet and moved on to the next shirt while hearing a few giggles from my dressing room neighbors.  Next I put on one that was just not right, not right at all.  My boobs hung out with one going east while the other went south, my rolls were looking for an escape route and it was just plain wrong all over.
Mommy if you wear that Mickey is going to be very mad at you.
Daughter be quiet, I told her as I heard snickers within the room.
But Mommy, Mickey Mouse will be mad if he sees your boobies.
And with that I got dressed and left the dressing room without making eye contact as the girl, trying to hold back her giggles, took the shirts and my pride with her.

Mickey and your boobies... too funny!

AmazingGreis said...

LMAO! Can Disney totally post that notice at the entrance? I can see it now..."Mickey doesn't like BOOBIES, so please cover'em up!" Some Disney visitors could definitely use the advice. LOL

Kids...gotta love'em!

Aren't kids the nicest? Gotta love em!

He & Me + 3 said...

Oh that is too funny. I just love their honesty. My kids tell me stuff like that all the time.

Beth said...

Those kids need to be flogged! :)

Seriously, I always wanted an on/off switch on my boys. Think of how easy bedtime would be if they could just be turned off.

Paige said...

I personally think Mickey would be thrilled. Look what he has to deal with on a daily basis-- some random boobs would probably make his year

Frankly, I'm sure it's been a while since Minnie gave up the goods so you're going to be A-OK!

And yeah, dressing rooms + kids = disaster. It's a miracle we can find anything!

Christy said...

Kids are awesome.

Shelley said...

Yeehaw. Just think, you really made someone's day

Someone wise once said "If you brought them into this world, you can take 'em out" LOL ;)

Baloney said...

Kids crack me UP! One day my friend took her daughter into walmart and she asked the cashier why she had a mustache, her mom was mortified. She said "carlie we don't ask people that". Her daughter looked at her and said "Well I don't see why not because she needs to do something about that!". BWAHAHAHAHA!

~Shelly~ said...

Oh who are we kidding~Mickey would LOVE it!

april said...

Well I think Mickey would LOVE it too. Go for it.

I'm just gonna agree with your title and snicker a little. tee hee!

ummmhello said...

Ah yes, parental mortification, thy name is child!
My little guy always follows me into the dressing room and promtly turns around, saying, "I won't look" and then proceeds to talk about everything EXCEPT me :)

ZDub said...

Mickey does not like boobies, I think she's right.

TOO FUNNY.

MommaAmma said...

I love it! We've all been there but there is something strangely uncomfortable when thinking about Mickey seeing your boobs. She has a point. :o)

Stacie's Madness said...

Misguided Mommy said...

Izzy 'N Emmy said...

Jenners said...

Even without reading the post I agree with your title! And your daughter is right ... Mickey doesn't want to see those boobies.

Lexie Loo & Dylan Too said...

Oh my, that is mortifying! But oh so funny!

heidi said...

Oh my gosh - that same thing minus the mickey and add a little boy happened to me at Target the other day. Trying on a shirt and new bra Corban yells out "I see your booooooobies!!!" and falls to the floor in a fit of loud laughter. People all over Target were laughing and I could hear them. Rude.
