Yep, we’re still on Auto-Pilot.
This one makes me laugh. I have to say, Target has proven to be a wonderful place for my child to try to embarrass me. Just the other day, she looked straight at a woman who was in our aisle and said, and I quote, “Did you know, boys have penises?” I thought the woman was going to choke.
I smiled sweetly and said to Claire, “Yes. Yes, they do.”
And then I turned to the woman and said, “Who knew you’d get an impromptu biology lesson in Target?”
Enjoy!
Naked Baby, Page 29
Published Friday, July 6, 2007
Ever since Claire was a teeny-tiny baby, I’ve said, “Naked Baby!” whenever I see her nude little body on the changing table or just fresh out of her bath. It’s just something I’ve always said, and I never really thought much about it. She would smile and giggle, and we would have a good ol’ time.
Well, as you know, Claire has started mimicking me. She has also become very observant of her surroundings and has been able to piece two and two together. Now, whenever she sees herself in the mirror, or looks down at herself on the changing table or in the bathtub, she screams, “Naked Baby!” at the top of her lungs. I thought this was pretty funny…at home.
The other day, we were in the SuperTarget, and we were walking down the baby bath-time aisle, and Claire saw a picture of a baby on one of the packages. “Naked Baby!” she shouted. Then, in true form, she started replacing the word “baby” with all of her other words. Only, this time, she got stuck on one certain phrase.
Naked Momma!
Naked Momma!
Naked Momma!
Nice.
Either I’m a tad paranoid, or people really were peeking down the aisle to see just what was going on down there. Nope, this Momma has on all her clothes, but thanks for checking.

Hey, I found you in google and glad i did, this is just the topics that I was looking for. Btw, my blog is dofollow, stop by and grab a link. Komo
I’m convinced kids are here to embarrass us.
This reminds me of something my son did. We were standing in line at the grocery store and he was playing with a mole I have up by my neck. He blurts out (very loudly), “Mom, I’m playing with your nipple”. I let him know it is just a mole. This was during the time I was nursing my second son, so the word nipple was new and interesting to him. I have since had that mole removed.
TOO FUNNY! my son says “nake-ted” instead of naked. as in “mommy, why you nake-ted?” hehe
