It’s amazing to hear my 2.5 year old son say the same things as I do. It really makes me wonder what I say, and how often I say it.

I was taking a load off this evening playing some MLB2k6, and doing an overall poor job at it. It was the bottom of the 9th, I was up to bat, down by 1 run. With every swing-and-miss that I did Judah would exclaim loudly, “Oh geez!”

All of a sudden my mind is whirling with, “Did he just say that? Was that ‘cheese’ or ‘geez?’ I haven’t been saying that, have I?”

I guess that’s on par with when he repeated after me yesterday. I was working on something, and in a moment of exasperation I said “crap.” Not five seconds later I heard my echo, “cwap.”

Awww cr… ge… dan… DOH!
