Fun With Body Parts!

My kids spend a lot of time wearing nothing but diapers. We don't get out much and I HATE doing laundry, so I've found a system that works for us...clothing optional. Noah's increasing curiosity about anything and everything is making me rethink my no clothes policy. A few weeks ago, Noah was admiring her little brother (or plotting his demise, who knows), when she casually pointed to those two little round things on his chest and said "Doh?" "Doh" is the word Noah uses when she doesn't know the name of something and would like you to tell her what that something is. I was planning on changing the subject (i.e. "Where's Elmo?" or "Let's sing Jesus Loves Me!") when Jordan flippantly responded, "nipple!" Crap. My daughter is like an elephant...she never forgets. As I gave Jordan dirty looks and he laughed uncontrollably, Noah proceeded to repeat the word nipple about 17 times. Awesome. Fast forward a few days and Jordan is reading Noah a story...he happened to be shirtless at the time (I'm sure you see where this is going.) Noah interrupted him by touching his nipple and proudly saying "Daddy nipple!" What my husband found hilarious only a few days earlier was now very awkward for him...ah, sweet revenge. He told her, "don't touch" and hoped that would be the end of it. Not wanting to disobey, she decided to hold her little index finger about an inch away from the aforementioned body part, look at both of us, and proclaim, "No touch, daddy nipple!" That's my girl! :o)
