I cannot relate to this, but I feel like I should comment on something, anything. I wish I could commiserate with you about the joys of motherhood. But, no. Not so much. However, sometimes my cat walks into the kitchen and screams bloody murder. Then when I request that he stop and come out of there, he looks at me like, “WHAT?!? I’m BUSY.” Busy wailing at the fridge, no doubt. Freak.

I think we need some audio of AE talking! 🙂 (The constant talking would drive me batty too. Jason does it sometimes and after a certain point I just want to put my hands over my ears and say, “Shut up, shut up, shut up!”)

Just wait until Miss T decides that you should understand exactly which BA she means, even though she still uses it for 17 different things. “Bee” is our house is practically anything that starts with a B or flies. Bird? Is Bee. Bee? Is Bee. Plane? Is Bee. Wasp? Is Bee. And nevermind the fact that sometimes from a toddler “Nee” (which is what he mostly calls Fiona) sounds like “bee.” And God helps us all if we don’t understand exactly which “Bee” he is referring to. Bee. Beeee. BEEEE. BEEE!! BEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! I still don’t know.

So yeah, someone once told me that you wish for them to talk and then you wish they’d shut the hell up.

Man, you want one kid to stop talking and the other one to make actual words. It must be a rough life for AE and Miss T!!!! 🙂 j/k!

My son said “BA” for everything too. It drove us crazy. He kept it up almost to his 2nd birthday. I hope, for your sake, that Miss T learns to talk faster than my son.

Ok, so if being annoyed by the incessant talking makes you a bad mom, then I am one two. My son does the play by play thing when he is playing sports/video games. I think it is a boy thing. The latest thing that he does to irk me is scraping the bowls whenever he eats anything. He has to get every last bit of yogurt, cereal, etc.. out of the bowl. It is such a grating noise-drives me insane!
