We're Doomed


What do you do when a three year old is already figuring out your parenting tricks? This is an actual conversation Brendan and I had in the store the other day.


Brendan: Mommy, look at that.

Mommy: Mmmhmm.

Brendan: Mommy, I have to tell you something important that I hate.

Mommy: Mmmhmm.

Brendan: I hate it when you say "mmmhmm" when I am talking at you. That means you are not listening to me.


Eric and I are doomed. Doomed...

**LOL** that is hilarious!!!! i do that too. i also found myself with the girls tonight on the playground at the ball field because somehow the girls kept asking and i wasn't paying attention but kept saying "yeah, um, sure, give me a minute" SIGH...

not that it was a big thing but i was not in the mood for the playground and ended up there because of my sort of "hmmmmmmms" LOL!!!!

scarry part is zoe figured it out way young before she could speak any english. she would speak jibberish - lilloolkoodobleleeebee

uh, okay, zoe, sure.

lillloolkoodobleleeebee
