OMG, Mom. Yes, the increasing LOUDNESS ON THE PLEASES does not mean you will get what you want!!! hahahah. DD does that all the time (and like 50 times in a row!).

Ed, I won't tell you a swear my DD said recently...it is five syllables and there is only one person she has ever heard say it (whoops)!! So poopy would be a good alternative!

Well, we are in the THROES of three-dom here so I hear a lot of...

"But I want/need xyz RIGHT NOW!"

"RIGHT NOW" is screamed at the top of his lungs.

I swear, whoever coined the term "terrible two's" NEVER had a 3 yo. I actually cried today b/c things have been so bad lately.

When our 2 1/2 year old excited to do something he will say:

"Come on momma. Don't dawdle."

It kills me.

He is also fond of saying to "keep your eyes peeled"

Both of these he got from us.

I'll give you a big AMEN on that. I'd give you a hug too but my DW would kick me in the shins. (well...maybe not shins but you get the idea!)

Our three year old has a few.
In the order of most common
1. guys. . . She calls us or any other group of people she likes guys. Like "guys let's go swimming" or this "is good, guys!"
2. "That is sooooo funny!" sometimes its "That is soooo funny, guys!"
3. My personal favorite and I'm just enabling her because I laugh. When stuff is going on and there's some bedlam we get, "Whoa, whoa whoa...wait a minute!" complete with the appropriate hands up palms forward gestures. It is hilarious.

Not too long ago, I went outside unto the middle of the road at around 3am and let out the biggest scream - I NEEDED THAT! (She was waking up a lot just to bug the heck out of me.)

My daughter graduated from the terrible twos' straight into the horrible three's. Now that she's 3 1/2 I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel - Hoping is not a train!

The Fours

"My daughter graduated from the terrible twos' straight into the horrible three's. Now that she's 3 1/2 I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel - Hoping is not a train!"

A friend told me to just wait for the "f*#&ing fours."

OneHappy, I can't post the swear here (obviously), but it's a combo of different swears that I string together when I am dealing with crazies in traffic!

My guy is only 18months so everything is "noooooo" w/ the eyes closed, like maybe if he doesn't see us we will stop asking him to do something-- and ""let's go" has been a hit lately-

My inlaws were in town last week and we went to dinner- when it was time to go I told my son to go get his "poppie" and he ran over to my fil, grabbed his hand and said "let's go, Poppie" -- I about had to peel him off the floor- that little guy is his heart!

These kids are great!!


Love- I guess I have to deal with our boring selves, my daughter's swearing at the driver in front of us goes like this: "Come on lady move, my mommy is running so very late!"

Gs_Mom - You are so bad!!

Dakota- My daughter sometimes uses "You Guys" as well, funny, because we are all females here.

love2boys - Isn't it great when they begin to express themselves so well. I'm enjoying this new phase.

babycav- DD2 is 21 months, yeah, "NO" is her favorite word.

Aruba - Yeah, why do kids say monkey butt? Have they not seen the butt of a monkey?

mom2justynsarah - PLEEEEEEEEEEEAAASSSSEEE don't tear your hair out.

I have a little negotiator on my hand! These are her favorite sayings

" I got a plan..."
" Lets make a deal..."
" Are you kidding me..."
" Please, pretty please with sugar on top..." ( how do I refuse that???) And I get a kiss for the sugar!
