Love is Blind

This might be my fave pic of her:)

Fellow foul mouthed momma here....just keep on keepin' on girl!

i as well have a horribly filthy mouth and also sort of enjoy it. for years i worked in an enviroment that was 99% male and in the powersports industry (motorcycles, etc), so swearing was an asset. it was hard when i started teaching full time in a public school (miss, you can't just say F***!) but now with 2 young kids of my own, *sigh*, i find that i have all sorts of strange words creeping into my vocabulary. Crud, fudge and dang. for me, it has to not just be a different word, but really have a bit of a different meaning -- i don't know if i can explain this well, but my stepmom always said "firetruck" and "sugar." kids aren't stupid, so i couldn't really figure out why she did that. Was saying "firetruck" when we all knew she meant "f***" really better? is it just about the actual word?

Best photo EVER. I love the dress, the shoes, the lighting, the everything.

I also have a filthy mouth. Eddie is 17 months and is starting to pick up language, and I know I need to be careful, but it's so hard. Sigh.

I am the worst potty mouth ever.  And my husband and I make inappropriate 'flirting' remarks to each other in front of our 19 month old twin boys.  I know it's gonna bite me in the a** very soon.  But sometimes saying, "Darn!" at the top of my lungs when they are in the dog bowl AGAIN just doesn't cut it!

I went through this. I was meaning to quit, but I couldn't manage it until my toddler said,"WTF". The f-bomb is very satisfying to say so I was afraid he wouldn't stop using it.

But, after I stopped (mostly) and did not make a big deal out of what he said and he stopped shortly after as well.

No, I refuse to believe that adorable child in the photo above pooped in the tub.  HA,HA!!!  She's so damn cute!  It's so funny, last week as I was backing out of the driveway I didn't see this truck, and slammed on the brakes yelling "FUCK" (with my 2 yr old in the backseat).  She said "Mommy, Fuck?"  I was mortified!  I said, "Yes baby, Truck" but she kept saying it with the an F.  So I repeated "T.T.T.TRUCK" so eventually I got her to say truck.  I'm trying really hard to avoid that language in front of her, it's tougher than I thought.  

Also, Where did you buy her dress?  It's soo pretty and unique.  

Look at that sassy little thing!  Love it!

The other night we were at a picnic and Little Man was watching (staring) a man we didn't know getting ice out of the cooler.  I said, "He's supervising the operation" and Little Man said, "supervising the operation."  We've been trying to be careful for a while, but that drove it home for me.  He will repeat ANYTHING.

My favorite story: A friend of mine was in the car with her hubby and their toddler.  The toddler said, "Daddy, look at all those fucking cows!"  They, too, had the attitude that words are just words.  Until then.

There is something about poop in the path that brings out the #$%^*&^$!@!!!!! in my speech.

That said, having a kid in school and a toddler who is repeating all phrases got me to cleanup my mouth. I really didn't want to have a kid who dropped the F-Bomb in his kindergarten class.

i also swear like a sailor and have spent the last 4 years learning replacement swears for when i'm around my very religious in-laws.  which is good practice since i now have a four month old.

my favorite swear is motherf*^@ker which i have replaced with mother trucker. it's effective. close enough to the real thing that it makes people do double takes when you say it with that "did she just say that" look on their face, and funny enough to make people laugh when they realize what you actually said.

and let me just say i will absolutely be adding sasshole to my vocabulary list.

awesome.

Same here. Can't really help myself, and I guess now it's kinda too late.

Some friends of ours stopped by on their way home from the beach over the weekend and their 3 year old had told them earlier that day, "Whoa, that's a big fucking wave, Mom!"  Probably not good but she's sooooo freakin cute!

I used to cuss like a sailor, too.  Now I'm the queen of "RATS!" and "Cheese & rice!" with a little "Son of a biscuit!" thrown in for good measure.    

I just had to comment and say how adorable GiGi is in her glasses. When I had to wear glasses as a kid they certainly weren't as amazingly awesome as GiGi's are, hers just seem to sparkle like her personality! I have refractive amblyopia that didn't get diagnosed until I was four. My doctor's kept insisting that I was just clumsy instead of almost entirely blind in my left eye lol.  It's hard raising a child with something like vision impairment as it becomes so much a part of your life. I remember knowing how to spell amblyopia before I could spell the days of the week and the regular ophthalmologist appointments and child specialists. I had to wear a patch over my good eye in an attempt to force my bad one to work until I was 10 and while I hated it with the fiery passion of any teased child, I remember the glasses opening up an entire side of the world that I had previously missed. I think you're doing an incredible job raising GiGi to be a bright, unique, independent little person whose visual impairment will only be an aspect of who she is and not that which defines her. Keep on rocking with that awesome little girl, she's definitely going to dance through life to her own unique beat!

Hello fellow foul-mouth!!  I struggle and mostly succeed, although my hb would argue not!  My kindergartner was the one who taught everyone to use their middle finger.  I'm pretty sure she doesn't even know what it means, but I am afraid to ask!  Hey, at least I feel a little better knowing you struggle too.

I am the worst with my language - I try, but it's hard - and I know it's going to bite me in the ass. I mean, butt.

I am a cusser and struggle with a 3 year old daughter who obviously copies everything I say. This morning I was baking and spilled something and carefully said "FFFFFF" without the rest of the word, and my daughter turned to me and said "Fuck, right?". Wow, if that wasn't a reality check I don't know what is! You're obviously an amazing mom and I'd like to think I am too, but we cant be perfect at everything, right?!

Hey Bug;
