Yep. Little lesson from me to you.
Apparently I say 'freaking' a lot more than I thought. Or I say it on occasions that really stand out. I don't know which is true, but I know that it's stuck. Henry was playing in the bath the other day and flipped over and started drinking the water like a dog (not unusual). I told him to stop and he said "Mom I'm drinking with my freakin tongue!" I had to ask him to repeat himself three times before I finally was convinced that was what he was saying. I couldn't believe my sweet boy would say something like that! Now he says it A LOT. We've tried to switch it with 'stinking' and I have been VERY careful about what comes out of my mouth, but just last night he told us he wanted some 'freakin beans and rice' and wanted to listen to the 'freakin Journey song' Oh monster... On the plus side though we were leaving our house the yesterday and I said something about where we were going and Henry said "Boo-urns" without missing a beat.
And since we're throwing people (me) under the bus here, I'm dragging Rob with me. We have really enjoyed the show "Modern Family" and on one episode the boyfriend of one of the daughters sings a very funny/ugly song about the daughter in front of the whole family that says "Do you! Do you!" a lot. Like I said, funny/ugly. Rob sang just that little snippit on the way home from getting the freaking beans and rice thinking Henry wasn't paying any attention and trying to make me laugh when Henry starts singing very loudly and over and over again "DO YOU! DO YOU!" This went on for a solid mile. Maybe two. There was no stopping him either.

I am laughing so hard! Note: kids will always pick up and say what you don't want them too. Something about the tone in your voice makes them know its "important". He'll be okay, at 2 I had quite a colorful vocabulary.
That is freaking hilarious.
