I love you child, but please shut up!

Jenn:

I must start this by saying my mom is going too laugh her ass off! Because I was a talker too (still am actually!) and she would say things like" God only gave you a certain amount of words and you are going to use them all by the time you are 25"!!! So when I had my adorable son and would look at him lovingly saying "I can't wait until he can talk". My mom would laugh, I never really understood why until now! My son will not,or can not stop talking! He will continue on and on about anything until I feel i might go crazy! Don't get me wrong I usually ask him to please be quite or to hush. But in the case of my son, who probably even talks in his sleep, I usually have to pull out the SHUT UP!!! Which I really don't like to say to him because no one likes to be mean to their baby. What other options do I have? I am repetedly polite and still he continues to chatter. Now I know why my mom was so cranky when she didn't get her alone time. We all need that time to think or to just hear the voices in our own heads! Just hold out for nap time or bed times mommas! It will be all right!!!!

So my three year old just started talking quite a lot these past few months.  There are times when he says the most adorable or hillarious things. But I do have to say that it is very frusturating when I'm trying to get a few moments to myself and he just won't leave me alone.  Like now for instance, I've been trying to write this blog for two days now and he's sitting practically on my lap talking to me about his airplanes.  It's understandable that I am his buddy and best friend, but gosh kid please give me a minute.  Also another time in the morning when I'm first waking up haven't had a chance to even get a sip of coffee and it starts mom, momma, mommy,  MMMOOOOMMM!!!! WHAT!?! What do you need!?  It just seems at times that it's never ending  My twins are just starting to talk and oh my goodness it's cute!  How mother nature really has us fooled.  Here I am trying not to yell at my three year old but oohing and ahhhing at the little ones for saying toes or other such things.  Ha! It's all an evil trick.
