Moms of toddlers....do you find yourself spelling things...

Whenever I dont DD to know what I am talking about I spell out everything. Like just now...I made cupcakes last night and told DH that Im gonna cover the C U P C A K E S up so Paige doesnt see them.

Allllllll the time. I'm constantly spelling, but she has learned how to spell snack, drink and park so there's no use in spelling those things anymoreChat Icon

yes I have had to do that for a while now - but unfortunately I think DD is catching on to some of them - b.c DH asked me if he could get DD a c-o-o-k-i-e and she turned to him and said cookie please!

Yes !!!....But my DS got too slick...

I would ask my DH to let the D-O-G out
(when we didnt want DS to play with him before bed etc...)

One day my DS started asking me i f he could play with the D-O-G !!!
He started spelling it out to me and calling our dog D-O-G !!!!!

Yes, all the time. I actually said S-N-A-C-K the other day and DS said the word after I spelled it. I was Chat Icon because he is 18 months.

Re: Moms of toddlers....do you find yourself spelling things...

I'm doomed when my kids learn how to read because right now when we walk into Target or any other store, did you know that there is always a sign that says "Little children must sit in the front of the cart and big kids that go to school must walk next to the cart." Chat Icon Chat Icon Stores also close mid-day when I'm shopping..."lets hurry up because the store is closing soon!" Chat Icon

Just wait until they can read the stores hours and the signage and figure out that there is no rule that you have to sit in the cart or you can't come in the store!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Y-E-S, although sometimes she looks at us and repeats what we just spelled Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I KNOW it's coincidence, but it freaks us out.
