It Has Begun

And I'm having mixed feelings about it...lol.

Tonight we were watching 'Lie to Me' when Mekhi Phifer's (did I spell that right? I'm lame) character answered a question with a "hell yeah."

All of a sudden a little voice from the floor: "a yeah." I thought that little voice wasn't paying any attention to the TV. Wrong. Dada and I of course were trying to mask our laughter so as not to encourage the little voice.

So he's become a mynah bird. I have been looking forward to this--I mean, he's been doing it for a little bit, but not with the the shows we watch in the evening, just his shows. Fortunately, I have always been really picky about what we'll watch when he's awake, but I guess we just have to be more so now. It's GREAT, because it means his speech is improving. Of course, the down side is I have to watch what we say now...lol.

So I guess I'm happy. I'm glad to have to watch what I say/watch for fear a little ear will hear and repeat.

I gave up watching TV with the kids up, we don't have cable and we haven't found much in the way of family friendly programing. I've even dropped the country stations off my radio in the van because Kate started singing "God is Great, Beer is Good." Oops.

Yay for improved speech though!

Too funny! Mike and I don't even attempt to watch t.v. when the girls are up. The only safe channels besides the kids' ones are Home and Garden!! : )
