You suddenly have a two year old saying sh&t to everyone when they say hi....I do like teachign the situational responses and stuff. I taught him to say "Good Morning Mommy" when he gets up. Being able to caoch and get him to take a rose we picked into his mommy and say "Here Pretty Mama" was well recieved. of course my crowning achievement is him now saying "Show Me Rain" and running his hand in front of his face a la Prince. Life is good. The kid talking hting is great….until you say sh&t when a car cuts you off.

You should have seen the looks! And I don't even like beer! Why didn't he say pinot? Hmm!

But now I'm terrified. We've got a one year old and his dad and I share a pretty raunchy sense of humor. And we've already paid the swear jar over $100. I think we're in trouble.

You always have to watch what you say!! I have had some embarrassing moments with him too, which I have blogged about...you really have to be careful what you do! For example... This story I probably should have a small explaination first that will also explain the second. Being a single mother my son comes into public restrooms with me at ALL times. When he was younger I wouldn't make him turn around, I would just quickly do what I had to do. Well apparently I wasn't quick enough sometimes.... When my son was about 3 we were in line at a very crowded bank. He put his hand in my pocket and pulled out a tampon (I did not know it was in there) holds it up above his head and says very loudly..."Hey mom, is this what you stick in your butt!" OMG, I could've died right there. All I could do is take it from his hand and put it back in my pocket and pretend it never happened, but boy was I embarrassed. Then came: "Mom, I know that all boys have weiners (I don't know why he called it this, because I only refer to it as penis to him), but why do girls only have butts with a little bit of hair?" *This is when I KNEW I needed to have him face the other way in the bathroom and recently I have started having him go in the stall next to me (in public bathrooms) - his little eyes were looking a LITTLE to much!

It's been hard. I'm not a sailor or anything, but I used to let the occasional F**K fly when appropriate. We say "Earmuffs!!!" to each other if any of us curse.

Mine can't talk in complete sentences or anything, but my Mom tells me about some crazy stuff that came out of my mouth. *At the grocery store, she realized they didn't have the pasta she normally bought. She told me (I was 3) about it, and I said, "OH S**T!" She was mortified. *I also asked her in front of our next door neighbor who had a huge belly if HE was pregnant. LOL sparklingmama…that’s too much.

I explained to my kids about their "private parts" about a week later we were standing in line to use the bathroom at the library and my 2-year-old started screaming "Don't look at my vagina!". The entire library could hear her. I was mortified!! Ahhh kids are funny!
