Poop or Cracker?

Here is a little video from last month of the twins saying "cracker." In English. They speak a smattering of words in both Spanish and English; for example, they say variations of agua, gato, hola, chau, más, pez in Spanish, and cracker, ball, shoes, bowl, all done, dog in English. And then stuff like dada, mama, (ba)nana, no,...same in both languages. They also know Jesus' name, and point him out in pictures, but we can't tell if they're saying it in English or Spanish, they just say, "Zzzz-zzzs."

Anyway, they really like crackers, and they like to say cracker, loudly and often, during Sacrament meeting, when crackers help us keep them semi in line (though I think the power of the cracker is fading. Curses!) Unfortunately, "cracker" (and "quack-quack," which is what must be said when a duck of any sort is spotted) sounds very, very similar to caca, and anyone who has been a fourth-grader knows that caca means poop in Spanish.

My friend Ileana totally thought Bran was saying it about a picture of a potty in a little book she was showing him during Sacrament meeting a couple of weeks ago, but we determined it was really "quack-quack," in reference to the rubber ducky. So now we are the parents of children who shout "poop!" in the middle of church. I mean, they shout agua, so it wouldn't be a stretch to think they're also speaking Spanish when they say caca. Now we just repeat, as loudly as is polite, "Sí, crackers, galletas!" and hope people clue in. If you watch the video, you'll see what I mean.

p.s. Happy Mother's Day! Especially to our wonderful mothers, we love you! :)
