A Giggle and A Heck

On Sunday Beck giggled for the first time. I was tickling his chin which made him smile and smile, then he laughed! So cute! He would love little old ladies who come up and say "Coochy, coochy, coo!" Beck would smile and laugh.

Last night Annika was looking around the kitchen and suddenly her little hands went up to her mouth. "Oh, no!" she exclaimed, "Where heck towel went?" Now it was my turn to have a hearty belly laugh.

Update 2/21/08: "Heck" is now a fixture in Annika's vocabulary. She has also said, "Where heck baby?" and "Where heck flowers go?"

At moments like these I am so glad that I don't swear, although I'm thinking I may use "heck" too much.

I have found that the highs and lows of being a mom are the things that come out of my children's mouths.

Kate has picked up that word recently also and I know she learned it from me. She said something and I said, "what the heck did you just say?" and she says, "I said, what the heck is that?" Ummm...Oops! I'm with you though, it could be worse.

That is so funny and I have had kids go through the "heck" stage too! "What the heck"? coming from a toddler is so cute!
