hmmm… what?
So my kid has been obsessed with bodily functions lately, and it’s kind of driving me nuts. A couple of weeks ago, I told him to get something out of his room then return to me. He stopped in his doorway and said, “wait, I got to tooted.” Then he “tooted” (farted, yes, I can say it) and then laughed his little head off.
As much as it’s gotten old and stale and can be embarrassing in public, I totally have to try and not to laugh every time because I think it’s hilarious. It’s mostly hilarious because it’s always in the past sense, always “tooted” never “toot” or “tooting.”
On the upside, I have him trained well. The other night when Steve faked a “toot” noise just to get Elijah going, well, it sort of went like this:
Elijah: Daddy! Did you tooted?
Steve: No, Mommy did it!
Elijah: Nooooo, Mommy didn’t tooted. Mommy doesn’t tooted. Ladies don’t tooted.
HEEHEEE :)
That’s right, boys!
I'm Valerie, late 20's, from Missouri. I'm married... with children: a young boy and a baby girl. I enjoy many things including photography, candle making, videography, history, and mythology. Baby Girl was born 11 weeks early after my water was broken for 8 weeks - she's my little miracle - so you're bound to hear a lot about her progress here. I am also a second generation homeschooler, that's bound to come up as well.

LOL! In our house, when we fart we say: “Toot toot for (insert name)”. Sierra loves it when Baby Brooke farts ’cause she gets to say it for her. She absolutely loves blaming Brookie for her own farts.

Hey, girl! Been super busy here (my kids take the state test next week, J was sick with a litle throat infection due to allergies, etc!).
Has E stuck his finger into his belly button crevice to get the smell on his finger so that he can stick it almost up your nose yet?
Yeah, they think of everything…

Sorry for being late to comment on this, but this is familiar territory ;) the bodily function is often mentioned followed by the biggest laughter by my 4 yr old….
Thanks for learning me the proper English word.
