Where does the time go???

So I'm going to get a little sappy here, then I'll tell the funny stories. Last night after bathtime (directly after dinner thanks to Luke bathing in dirt cake) we went into Luke's room to play. We were in there for well over an hour playing trains, and other fun things. Then all of a sudden, I just looked, honestly looked at my boys. I couldn't believe how big they've gotten. Between Jack writing "Happy Birthday Papa" on a banner and Luke knocking on the doors of the Sesame Street characters before pushing the button to open the doors, I was in awe. It seems like yesterday I was in Hawaii, giving birth to Jack and now he's able to clearly carry on a full conversation with you. Luke is now starting to comprehend what you ask him to do and carry out tasks. I have to admit, my boys weren't babies for long. They were early crawlers and early walkers. Now Luke at almost 20 months old is very interested in the potty and can open up the baby gates. Thankfully, they love to cuddle and don't mind giving their Mama some hugs and kisses. I know it won't last forever, so I'm soaking it up while I can. Thanks for my ramble, it just really hit me last night and I took a picture in my mind of how cool it was that both Zach and I were on the floor playing with the boys. Now for the funny bits...

Zach and I have really tried to clean our mouths up. As two sailors, we used language like sailors and sadly, sometimes we slip. The other day Zach dropped the bacon out of the fridge and little Jack said, "Oh F*@K!". So we sat him down and had the conversation that it's a bad word sometimes adults use, but it should never come out of Jack's mouth again. If he hears an adult say it, they he is allowed to tell them that it's not a nice word. And if Jack ever said it again, he'd get his mouth washed out with soap...Mama has a stock of bars in her room. Thankfully that was this weekend and we haven't heard it again. Papa swears he said "fudge" but I'll let you be the judge:) That same day we were doing something in the living room, when another word just popped out of his mouth. He said, "S&!T". Zach and I both looked at each other and since this sometimes slips out of my mouth, I got the honors of repeating the above. We've tried really hard since we've had kids to watch our mouths, but sometimes it just slips. I know we're not the only influences, they here it while we're out, etc. But my sweet innocent little boy (insert sarcastic laugh) should not be saying these words. Oh these boys sure keep my on my toes!
