Awesome new topic,Gaia!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad to see this here!Sharing parenting tips is the best way in the world to discover new things that work.I know that when my older guys were little,if it werent for a handfull of experienced folks to help me out,I would have been more insane than I am now.

Re: Awesome new topic,Gaia!!!!!!!!
I agree this is a great topic, im sure we could all chat for hours on end about our own 'little darlings'! 
As the parent of an 11yr old autistic son, a 19 yr old son on the autistic spectrum ( aspergers syndrome ), and two 'normal' ( is there such a thing? ) teens, i look forward to ranting now and again, and boasting sometimes as well! 
So, whats the most embarrasing thing your toddler has ever done to you? I remember when my middle son was about two, we were walking home from dropping my eldest off at school, when he suddenly let go of my hand and shot straight through the open front door and up the stairs of a complete strangers house! I had no choice but to chase straight after him up the stairs - complete with my baby daughter tucked under one arm - and retrieve him. I'll never forget the look of astonishment on the poor houseowners face! I just mumbled an apology and got staight out of there! Bet he did'nt leave his front door open again!

Oh man Jacobs pulled that on me!! When sam was 3 I was 7 months pregnant with mikayla and we decided to go car shopping for a larger vehicle. So here i am very preggers standing with paul n the sales guy, pauls dad was in the truck with sam and chrissy when i here G*% damnit sammy i said NO!!! To which EVERYONE in the lot turns to see my son tinkleiing out the truck window...and onto the windsheild of another car!!! I shook my head sadly and said "some peoples children I swear"...the man nods and says yes then sam decides to yell (right as i convince the man and myself this is NOT MY child) Hey mommy!!! I reallly really gotta poop!!!
Pauls poor dad screams "oh for the love of all that is holy NOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
I quickly excussed myself to usher him to the toilets then sat in the truck...i think they approved the car loan only to get us out of their lot!!

Re: Awesome new topic,Gaia!!!!!!!!
All of my kids have done at least one thing to me that made me want to curl up in a hole and disappear,but my oldest(now 23) took the cake.
We were walking through the grocery store,down the freezer isle,and it was mid-summer.The little @#%$ reaches up,grabs my tube top,and pulls it down to my waist-right there in the freezer isle.OMG,I wanted to die.
Then,about a year later(this one is thanks to a friend of mine who happened to be black)we were in the same store,and this HUGE,black guy walks by us.My 3 1/2 yeqar old wonder balls his fist up(in that "Black Power"motion)and yells"HEY NIGGA"as loud as he could.I just knew we were gonna die,until the HUGE guy smiled,and said,"cute kid".
That boy was bound and determined to make the normal color of my skin beet red.

Sam wehn he was 2 saw his first black person. Paul was in the car with him while i christmas shopped. I came out to hear "look daddy that guys burnt like mommys fried chicken!" ok, it should be noted here that until the flood of 97 there simply were NOT that many minorities aside from hispanics in our area. we are very rural. I stood there mortified as this man quickly made his way to my car prepared to explain that he was only 2 and simply lived in the country so saw nooone of different colors, I opened my mouth the man smile shook his head dropped to one knee and said "do you like chocolate ice cream? Vanilla ? Strawberry?" sam replied yes to each one. he said "well people are like that, some chocolate, some, vanilla, some strawberry but got likes us all the same even if we are different flavors" I could have kissed him!! NOW!!! Flash forward 2 weeks, I am in the grocery store with sam in my cart when a very pretty black baby is placed behind him. Sam looks at the little girl and says loudly "I KOW WHAT YOU ARE!!" The (very large and intimidating) mothe says "Oh yeah baby, what is she?" and narrowed her eyes I am now having heart palapatations because lets face it YOU NEVER EVER know what theyll say next! He looks at the mother innocently and says "Shes chocolate and im vanilla and god loves us both because we both taste good with nuts (OK at this point you need to remeber yet again he is 2 so apparently added his own touches. The mother laughed and looked at me and said That is NOT what I thought he was going to say and stuck out her hand i shook it and sam says "oh you thought I was gonna say nigger, thats a disgusting word and we dont say it in my moms house or we have to leave. your not a nigger" I looked at him and said "well why did you say it and he rolled his eyes and said "DUH! mommy! She didnt know!! I dont want her to get in trouble." Yes I heard the woman laugh all the way to her car.
NOW!!!
Flash forward to 2 days ago. Sam and Jacob run down the hill screaming DADDY DADDY SOMEONES STEALING GRYPHON!!! PAul doesnt think twice, he gets the truck description hears grif was trying to jump out n they tioed him and vroooom hes gone going 75 on icy roads slams on his breaks slids in front of this truck jumps out runs to the drivers window and say "hey you piece of s h i t! What do you think your doing with my wifes dog!!" The looks back...At a black dog who was not gryphon!!! Paul says he looks at the guuy says sorry man wrong truck jumps into his car and flies home...and griffy chased him up the hill. Yes, everytime we see a black truck now we ask the boys and paul uif thats griffs kidnappers
In all fairness we have an animal testing labortorie in the county over. these are the unethical ones who offer money...150 for a large breed dog, for "strays" Country dogs are fair game because virtually all farms have outdoor dogs who they let run loose. We have lost several dogs...one may run away but 3 is suspicious and tryed contacting the lab and was told if they came into the lab they didnmt have collars so we couldnt claim them and no we couldnt veiw their animals as its against federal guidlines. Paul was afraid that was where griff was heading so i thanked him ne way!

Re: Awesome new topic,Gaia!!!!!!!!
Heres a good one for you! My oldest, Sierra was about 3 or so and we were shopping for my youngest girl Katelyn. Well I'm looking at baby stuff and Sierra starts yelling at the top of her lungs that she wants the pink dress over there becouse I have one and it's so pretty. I have no clue what she's talking about becouse I don't have a pink dress and don't see one anywhere around me. Well I let her out of the cart to go point it out and she runs over and gets a very lace very sheer teddy and puts it on and starts yelling "now I look like mommy" everybody is looking at us and she's running away from me screeming "i want it i want it." People are giggling and pointing at me I wanted to hide under the floor tile. I got home and got rid of that thing so fast! I hate teddys to this day.
