    YES to the music!! I love me some Nicki Minaj but she can be nasty sometimes lol...so I blast that when the kids aren't in the car.

  • Ezra absolutely LOVES rap! Anything with a strong beat will make him coo and laugh it's ridiculous. I've got a little Eminem on my hands!

    The first time I went out without Ezra I blasted the music! No worrying it was going to hurt his ears. It was awesome!
    Oh yeah, that's my other me time delight- bumping the hip hop in the car without worrying that my son is gonna start spouting lil Wayne lyrics. 
    Dh and I listen to a lot of hard core rap. Guess we have to find something else to listen to if we don't want Harper to have a potty mouth!
    Yeah us too... You have a little window of time for now, my son is 2.5, incredibly verbal and can sing all of the lyrics to basically any song he's heard 3 times (current fave is Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash), but somehow the lyrics in rap don't catch his attention as much- maybe they're too fast or something? I've never heard him repeat anything from a rap song, and my husband still plays it in the house or car on a fairly regular basis. I figure we've got another 6 months or so before he starts asking very uncomfortable questions about they lyrical content and hopefully at that point my husband will get the picture.

    Yeah my parrot of a toddler doesn't need to be quoting Nas and Chamillionaire. 
    It was so fun to watch my toddler as a baby dance to rap though :) 
  • @bkjade yep exactly. I could also start an entire thread on inconvenient sh$t I never noticed until I became a parent.  For example: that dip in the curb which allows people in wheelchairs and people with strollers to get up on the sidewalk. Everyone seems to crowd around it when they were walking and won't let you get past when you have a stroller. Even though they can just step up onto the sidewalk and I need that dip in order to get my stroller up onto the sidewalk. Or places without ramps. Or needing to find elevators instead of escalators. All things I don't have to worry about when I'm out alone, jaywalking by myself. 
    THIS! I live in a city and this drives me crazy on a daily basis. And never even realized it before kids.
