Potty Mouth

"Poop!"

*giggles*

"Peepee!"

*snicker*

"Bottom!"

*hysterical laughter*

Had I known that toilet humor was so amusing to a three year old, I never would have given her words to use for potty functions. I just would have called everything "using the restroom"  or "results from the restroom." Somehow I don't think that would have quite the same effect on her when she gleefully shouted it at the grocery store.

But, I didn't. 

So when we go to the store or even just at home, when Caitlyn gets in a silly mood, I know that it won't be long before she is talking about poop. Or peepee. Or bottoms and vaginas. It seems to go like this:

Me: "Caitlyn, what do you want for dinner?"

Caitlyn: "Poop spaghetti!" (running away and choking on her giggles)

Me: "Caitlyn, please don't use potty words unless you are in the bathroom" ( A brilliant rule, if it actually worked). "So, Caitlyn, what do you want for dinner?"

Caitlyn: (runs down the hallway to the bathroom) "I want bottom water and poopsicles! Did you hear me? *giggles* I'm in the bathroom, so I can talk about poop. *more giggles*"

I give up.
