The last couple of months I have begun to realize something. I don't talk so appropriately in front of my children. When the boys were little they didn't seem to mimic me, or care what I said. But now I have little Miss Lex who repeats anything she hears. At first I thought it was a little funny but now I'm not so sure.
About two months ago I put Lex in swimming lessons. She was so excited to go; then she saw who her teacher was and all excitment left. He was a big man who scared her to death. When I say big, I mean no offense, but he probably weighed close to 250 and he was probably 5"5. About 10 min into her lesson she started to cry uncontrollably. I calmed her down and told her we would try the next day. But, the same thing happened the next day, and the day after that she wouldn't even get in the pool. I went to get my money back, and while I was standing there she asked if she had to go back. I told her no and she said, "Good, because that guy was a FREAK!" Now how do you argue with that? I wouldn't want to take lessons from a freak either!
A couple of weeks later she was running and ran into the wall. Her response? "Oh Suck!" Then tonight she was wrestling Chad. He was pinning her to the ground and she said, "Your creeping me out dad!" He looked at me and started to laugh and I kept thinking, where in the Crap did she hear that? After a couple of minutes of wrestling she finally told Chad to stop because he was making her onery. Which I swear I don't know where she has heard that. Honest!!
So maybe I need to watch how I talk in front of her. But it's SO hard. I mean freaks kind of creep me out and not only that, they make me onery! So go ahead and express yourself Lex. Because I don't think I can stop!

Ha ha ha ha! Hee hee hee heheheh! I love this post!
Thank Heaven for little girls.
I'm laughing out loud because I can still remember you always saying "oh suck!" That is too funny! BTW, sorry I didn't see you when I came to Utah. I should of called, but it was too crazy. It was the trip from Hell! Seriously, both my kids had croup and Daxton was puking and seriously dehydrated so I finally took him in and found out he also had an ear infection. No fun...so I was there a week and saw no one! I would say, hopefully I will see you next time, but I don't know if there will be a next time!
She is so stinkin' cute! I love it!
