outfit of the day(bird)

i am a person who pretty much never gets offended. ok, i should qualify that statement. i get offended by mean people, people who hate or people who spew venom at the expense of others. i do not, however, get offended by vulgarity, scatological humor or raunchy comedy. it might make me uncomfortable, if let's say, i am watching sex and the city with my dad and there is a weird nude scene or something (i believe this actually happened to my little sister - i would never watch sex and the city with my dad), but tell me a fart joke, and chances are, i will laugh. my family is very loud and (according to our husbands) very inappropriate. i think that's a good trait, others may not. but we do have fun, so that has to count for something!
i realize though, that i do need to watch what i say and how i act around my kids. they are sponges. and while i would never say anything age inappropriate around them (i do have a filter around kids after all), they have learned weird things from me. sometimes they do or say certain things, and i look at chris and say, "where did they learn that?" and he laughs and says, "megan, you say that every day." examples would be:

• every night when eva gets in bed, i say to her, "under the cover, lover". i had no idea i did that until she repeated it.
• my kids constantly dance and say, "shake your bootie". while chris blames this on me, i think madagascar is to blame.
• eva told me the other day that i was sexy. i am pretty sure she has no idea what that means. she did giggle when she said it, though, so she knew it was a grown-up word.
• henry patted my butt the other day and told me it was flappy. and by flappy, he meant that "it shakes when you slap it". 

i think we are doing a pretty great job of raising our kids. they have learned that you can laugh at a lot of things in life, that you shouldn't take everything too seriously,  that it's ok to tell a good joke every once in a while, but to make sure you know your audience...and most importantly, the benefits of a good flappy butt.

this is the outfit i wore to work today. nothing special, but i wanted to wear these shoes. do you ever do that? plan an outfit around your shoes? i'm pretty sure you have!
