I PROMISE, WE DID NOT TEACH HIM THIS

I remember how much I liked the circus when I was a child, so I decided to DVR the show Celebrity Circus thinking the boys might enjoy watching some circus performances. I was right, they loved it. Jude & Eli's favorite contestant? The little person Wee Man made popular from the awful show "Jackass". Unfortunately, I failed to anticipate the conversation I overheard Jude having with his grandma the other day while watching Wee Man's performance. Yes, this would be his grandma that is MY MOTHER-IN-LAW:

Jude: (very matter-of-factly) "His name is Jackass."
L.A. Grandma: (in korean) "They call him 'Wee Man'."
Jude: "No, his name is Jackass. His name is Jackass, Ha-mo-nee."

I don't know what I found more amusing-- Jude thinking Jackass was someone's name or my mother-in-law learning who Wee Man is from Jude. All because I recorded a show for my kids.

It's official, I would get a big fat F in Motherhood 101. But look how cute...

Lisa, the word is only bad if they know that it's bad. Like the time, we watched "Little Miss Sunshine" together and my kids learned the "F" word for the first time...and kept saying it over and over again to make sure that THAT was the word they couldn't say.

your stories about your children are so hilarious! jude, eli, and audrey will enjoy reading them when they are older. you're totally giving them a gift. anyway, audrey is so adorable and sweet. she truly has this femine look about her. i disagree with your last entry, i don't think she looks like a boy at all!!! she's so pretty! so happy for you and your family. :)
