So my sweet boy Aaron's new favorite words include the following: Poop, Pee, Burp and Fart. He literally will walk in the room and announce his presence by saying, "HI POOP!" and EVERY time he says one of these words he CRACKS himself up. He repeats it over and over, no matter whether we think it's amusing or not. Brian just laughs under his breath when these things occur, and says it's a boy thing. Funny thing is, I never remember Connor going through this phase.
This morning was a typical Saturday morning at our house. We woke up to Connor coming in to the bed to snuggle between us around 6:30am. He gets as comfortable as he can in a queen bed with a 9 month pregnant Mom next to him and we wait for the wake up call. Usually when I hear Aaron's morning whine, I turn to Connor and whisper, "Here comes trouble!" and we laugh together at our little inside joke.
Aaron comes into the bed painstakingly, and tries to jam himself into the already tight Connor sandwich we have made earlier in the morning. Eventually I sit up and let him take my spot. I ask the boys if they had any dreams and Aaron says, "Good POOP!" and starts to laugh. I ask him what his dream was about and he says, "PEE PEE!" and he laughs again.
I give up and say, "See Connor boys will be boys!"
Connor turns to me and answers, "Big boys don't talk that way, only little boys like Aaron." Then he turns to Aaron, "If you want to be a big boy you can't talk that way." Wow - Connor is laying down the law!
As I lay in Aaron's bed next to him tonight, we have a nice little chat and as he closes his eyes he yells, "POOP!" I shushed him, and he quietly repeats "poop...poop" I guess he's still my little boy, and that's the way he likes it.

Oh Jamie!!! I feel your pain! Unfortunately, it has gone around our house too, and even Addison has gotten in on the wording too! There is something about the bodily functions that turns them on...but I have totally used that to my advantage and one time during a tantrum, I totally said fart and both kids started laughing and forgot about the tantrum!
They don't outgrow it by 2nd grade! One boy this week was writing a creative story about a boa constrictor and said the character "stepped in poop and it was snack(snake)poop. He followed the trail of poop. . ."
Thomas and I laughed through this whole post, I think I would have to run away to laugh every time Aaron said one of those!
