Thanks - I think so -
She is a handful!! Right now she has picked up a couple of #$&* words that she shouldn't be saying & her Mom is having trouble stopping her.
She is doing the time out, finger over her mouth, etc - but no luck yet.
Bella's probably just venting her frustations - Poor baby has been thur some major changes in the last 4 months, moved, parents seperated, 2 different day cares, and now her Mom's expecting again & that is the same daughter that had surgery last week.
That's a lot for a 2yr old to process. I try to just give her & her sister some "ReeRee" time, but I know it's tough on them.
Anyway - How's everyone's day so far? Very, Very quiet at my office - oh wait - it's always quiet at my office

Anvil described it best when she said; once that seemingly innocuous little marshmellow goes BOOM, you'll be spending ALL DAY cleaning up the microwave.........
What a marshmellow mess from hell.
My daughter's had a good laugh and what I'm assuming they knew would happen all along.
Okaaaaaaaay.........mom's the big dingbat who does whatever her children ask her to please the little heathens. Ugh....not one of my brightest moments.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
My mom did that one time!!!!!!!!! One of those flying palmetto bugs (cockroach) flew in her hair and she flipped out!! She started yanking those foamy curlers out and probably pulled half her hair out in the process. I laughed so hard I wet my britches that night

When my Stephanie was about hmmm.........3 or 4 she used to sit under the glass dining room table. She thought because she was hiding we couldn't see her. One day I walked by and said "what are you doing in there" . Her response was "hiding from all you mudder f'ers".
I believe that day she had to hold up the wall for a while LOL.

My Mom uses a flyswater as the "No No" to get her attention. The other day she said the F' word - My mom said "Bella, don't say that word or Memie is going to get the NoNo after you" Bella said "F' the NoNo"
My mom said it took everything she had not to bust out laughing at her - Needless to say, she got a swat on the diaper with the NoNo and put in time out.
I mean, I can so relate - I like to say F the NoNo too sometimes!!

Teke, remmeber like 5 months ago you and Id come on Friday mornings and stress whether we were gonna see any money? See things have changed, progress is progress. I could possibly end up with a little myself today, maybe maybe not, time will tell and its no longer worth wondering about, ahhhhh peace

Anvil - we tried for about 2 weeks to ignore Bella saying "sh*t" & the F bomb - but it wasn't working - also she has an older sister, Lexi 4 who can't WAIT to tell us when her sister says it.
None of us really use the F word, but the girls went for 3 weeks to visit their dads family. I have to say their dad is very bad about listing to ANY type of music while they are in the car and he definitely doesn't PG his phone conversations while the girls are around. I hoping his influence around the girls will begin to be limited, but this Mom is trying very, very hard to not butt into her daughter's life - Dammit it's hard, not to want to help her "See the LIGHT" - oops - maybe Bella is getting some of that language from us too - guilty as charged!!

My 4 yr old grandson Payton was play fighting with his mom's boyfriend told him "Screw You" Of course, his mom, Bri told him "Payton it's not nice to say that - you can't talk to people like that" He said "But Mom what if I need a Screwwwwww Driver?" She said that was it - she had kept a straight face up until then - she lost it - busted out laughing.
Life is never dull with my bunch!!!
