Officially mom

When Blakely first started saying words she called me "mama".  That really only lasted for a tiny amount of time before she switched to "mommy".  So I have been "mommy" for most of the time I have actually been a mom.  

Anywho.  About a month ago, I noticed her calling me "MOM" and it has literally taken me this entire month to come to terms with this new name.  She just sounded so, I don't know, grown up when she said it!  When she says it I can actually hear my teenage self whining to my own mother.  Gah.  She is not a teenager!  She is a toddler!  I hear "NO, MOM!" multiple times a day.  Usually when I ask her to get dressed.  I also hear "Me do it, MOOOOOOM" a lot also.  A few other favorites....  

"Come wit me, Mom"  
"No, YOU go to timeout Mom"  
And my personal favorite that she yells when she has disappeared into the bathroom "MOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM, wipe me booty peees!"  

Mommy just sounds like she is still a baby, ya know?  Mom is what she will call me when she is 40.  Yikes.  My baby girl is growing up!

This pose came with a very exasperated "NO.  MOM.  NO PICTURES, MOM!"  

What do your kids call you?
