digger

Today we were all in the car, on our way to the mall. Lincoln's finally started growing (now that he's eating FOOD), and needed some new shoes.

This fall I fell in love with the "GLEE" soundtrack. Every once in a while I get a "music turn," and today I chose Glee. Contemporary songs, "musical" style. Some of the songs are ones that I wouldn't normally find myself listening to. So the song "gold-digger" comes on and the kids start kicking their legs and dancing their arms... and then I hear it: "digger!"

I really never expected to hear one of my kids singing along to a song like "gold-digger" (orginally by Kanye West). If there's a kid of mine who will repeat something, it's Cooper.

In fact, for most of the drive home he screamed and yelled and hit and kicked (low blood-sugar), and then started with: "Mommy, you are stupid! Hahahahaha." He really cracked himself up. Everyone got a turn: me, Lincoln, and then Mercedes. "Lincoln, you dummy!" Every once in a while, Cooper will get really excited about saying "naughty" words. Words like: "poop," "barf," "shut-up," "stupid," and "dummy." He thinks its super-hilarious. That's a total boy-thing, isn't it? At least, I think it's mostly a boy thing.
