How Can You Not Laugh?

Oliver has two new little sayings, one of which is “shut up” and the other one is “poop head.”

Usually when he uses those cute phrases I explain that its not nice, blah, blah, blah, but a couple of times I had to walk away because I didn’t want him to see me laugh.

One day he was walking around the kitchen telling everything to “shut up,” like the table etc. When he got to the fridge he saw a picture of the kids sitting on Santa’s lap. He saw and said,”shut up, Ho Ho.”

Another time he was overly tired and smacked me. I told him to tell mommy he was sorry. He said, “sorry, poop head.” In the straightest face I could manage, I told him that was not nice to call people “Poop Heads.” His response was “poop head, poop head, poop head.” Lovely.

And last night we were saying prayers and as we got to …I pray the lord my soul to keep… he said, “I pray to  ‘poop head’…He knew he was funny, because he was laughing hysterically.

All this from a not even 2 1/2 year old.

A little note…We are going to be potty training after Memorial Day. Wish me luck!
