Ah yes, nothing like a post-blowout blowout. Im not sure how infants alter the laws of physics, but way more seems to come out than goes in.

"I am not sure if my portrayal of being insane is accurate, but damn its fun all the same."
I've gotten one of the projectile poops from my boy, too. Painted the wall from across the room. The Jackson Pollock of poop, he was.
Two years older now. Rips a good one and announces "Toot!"
He also loves comics (we usually get him one of the Marvel kids comics when we take him to the store), and was giddy with happiness when he saw someone dressed as Spider Man for Free Comic Book Day.
Oh yeah, and he also says "thank you!" and has quite the vocabulary of exclamations, usually learned as a response to his actions. His newest one? "Oh my GRAVY!!!" 
I love the lil' Peanut. 
Ah yes, the joys of discovering your children's vocabulary... there's nothing quite like having your 2 year old son running around Wal-Mart yelling "Dammit!" at the top of his lungs over and over again.... or having to explain to your wife why your 4 year old daughter says "sonuvabitch" anytime something goes wrong... not that I'm talking about me... no sir... that was someone's else's kids...

Which is why I dont let my son near the hockey bench when either me or my wife are playing.
And somehow words that kids dont know the meaning to are inherently hilarious and must be repeated as loudly and often as possible.

Never had that problem. Cured it with two words, "Soap Poisoning".

It's an odd government nowadays. Parents are prevented from properly disciplining their children, but are prosecuted when their children perform crimes that solid discipline might have prevented.
Something seems a bit off, don't you think?
Kids always are watching you to learn how to handle every day to day events. You start joking around w other half and call him Old. You might be out with the kids and little Johnie says, My mom sleeps with an Old man.
Handling things from this point on depends on the parents. Laughing is one way handle it and may get Dad to respond to Aaw man as " I am not a Old man".

Nothing saids its your spot like an ourob. Portal dropped on the ground.
I kid about the soap. When people would tell us that our kids were well behaved we used to tell them we used duct tape, then add, "If you use it right the first time, you never have to use it again." But really, kids learn from example. My in-laws curse like drunken sailors and it's no surprise that their kids also know all the nuances of profanity.

I've implemented Potty Mouth Points. If I hear a swear word, I deduct 25 cents from their monthly allowance. (Yes, they've gone overboard recently with the death of their father earlier this month, but I have to stick to my guns.)

"Coping" and "dealing with it" are very different. Especially at that age. The worst part is that you can't rush it, but one day, out of the blue, they are gonna have the realization of it and an emotional collapse. Then they will be able to deal with it; and life will move on.
Having lost several close family members at a young age, everyone said how strong and brave i was at the funerals, then, on an obscure Wednesday years later, well... lets just say it was an epic rant/rave/tantrum/swear-fest (i think the cloud of obscenities still lingers). Then I was cool with it again.
Same thing with a friend's family whose father passed away last year. The children were more in shock for a while, then the explosion, and then back to normal. Just how it goes.

I have two kids.
My oldest son, at 5, was born with a heart condition called Tetrology of Fallot, and is having heart surgery next week. For gravy he's also a high functioning autistic.
My daughter, 2, is really really two. She's a sweetheart, but man is she two.
GP, I am so sorry to hear about the loss.

Are you saying you have a profanity problem, or just you can't taste picante?

He was finally getting back on his feet too. Things were really looking up. I was hoping for an eventual part time schedule and more involvement in the decision making and care for the kids on his part.
We'd had a heatwave in early June, and he was helping some friends move. He went to sleep that night and his heart stopped. I'm fairly certain it was heat exhaustion. He was completely sobre.
I'm glad he went peacefully.. but 41 was waaay too young.

I have chewed dried Haberano (sp?) peppers before. So bring on the Tabasco 
Meh...its not the pepper itself, its the oils and seeds. Dry ones are tame. Try a fresh slice next time 
Loose --> not tight.

One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

I always liked the projectile diarea that happens just as you take the diaper off. Had one shoot out, I swear, at least 8 feet.
