Lately Joe is reminding us all to think before we speak, as he parrots everything we say. Tonight Derek and I were debating about what kind of car to buy and he said something negative about a "GERMAN car". Joey pipes up from the backseat "Don't say JERK!" (That word has become one of his favorites, undoubtedly learned from his brothers. He's been known to say "Mo-om, Jane's bein' jerk!")
The other night we watched an XMen movie with the kids. Someone in the movie said "Bull----", and then there was silence. So of course, Joe repeated it, clear as day. All of the rest of us looked around at each other with big eyes, trying not to laugh. And then, with impeccable timing, Joey said "Awkward!" We all busted up. He is the star of the show and he knows it.
