Layla's first swear word


Yep. She did it. She swore. She's only 15 months old, her vocabulary to date consists of mama, dada, Hudson (not pronounced perfectly, but that's what she's saying), all done, no, uh oh, mmmm (when she's eating) and some other random stuff. Now, we can proudly add, "Damnit" to her vocabulary. Note to self: stop swearing.

On Saturday night, Jake had some friends over to watch football and partake in some holiday "spirits", when the topic of Layla's first swear word came up. The guys were wondering if she had said a swear word yet, and if so, which one. I told them no, she hadn't but that I thought maybe we had witnessed her saying, "G. Damnit" a few times in recent weeks. She heard me say that, turned around and looked at everyone in the kitchen and as clear as day said, "Damnit". The guys blew up with laughter, which only reassured her that saying that word was the bee's knees. Crap. Double crap.

No more swearing in the Sherman house. Shit.

It was only a matter of time! Layla will probably be the one to teach Logan his first swear word...that is unless he's listening to his Dad watching the Vikings! Go Bear!! :-)

i think this is hysterical!!! It's always funny to hear a child swear, but I know it's not somethin to be promoted. Good thing it wasn't something like F*&ker :)
