Is motherhood supposed to be this hard?

Oh my word... what a day I have had. I have had this blog page a while and yet to blog on it...so today, I think it's time. I love being a mom, it's the most rewarding thing I have ever done, but I have just about had it with POOP!!! Not that anyone ever wants to know about poop, but my kids always feel the need to share it with me, so I am sharing with you. So where do I start??? Let's start with Dylan because he is the easiest...

-This kid is obsessed with "poop." Everything he talks about is poop, which I have heard is normal and that lots of kids go through the poop talk. When he calls his sister names, somewhere it includes poop... when he is mad and yells out, somewhere it includes poop... when he wipes his bum like tonight, he's singing about poop! Poop this and poop that... I am so sick of hearing about it. The part that is the kicker, and I can't stand it... is tonight when he took his shower, I soaped up the washcloth and handed it to him and we always remind him, "do your armpits, your twig and berries, and make sure you get your bum, b/c those are most important." Well for some reason he cleans and feels the need to give me a high five, so I am ask him why the high five, and of course it includes poop... "mama, I have no stains on my bum." Great Dylan, but please, I don't want to know... just wait all you moms with younger kids, wondering why I am blogging about this...oh you just wait until preschool and kindergarten start. I can't wait until this stage is outgrown!

-Caydence... my sweetheart! She is obsessed with her poop too. If she for any reason wants her diaper changed, maybe it's a little too wet for her liking... "mama... pooooop!" She wants a diaper change, if you ignore and there really is poop, she'll stick her hand in to show you like she did tonight! Please, Caydence don't touch... that's nasty!!!!!!!! "Mama, potty." So we put her on the potty and nothing happens, just wanted to practice wiping with the toilet paper! This girl is unbelievable! I think she must be learning something from her brother! "Excuse me Mama." What happened Caydence? "I fart." I am telling you, as cute as she is, why the poop talk, can't we please talk about something else?

Oh the joys of motherhood!! Love my kids to pieces, but I don't love their poop. When they finally get potty trained, you still hear about it... it's neverending! :) But...... YOU GOTTA LOVE EM!
