Funny Sayings

(I keep editing this post because I think of new things they say)

Well, I didn't want to leave a negative post up for long and I've been meaning to record some of the things my kids say that I love so here goes:

Elizabeth (She is at the stage where I am clinging to words that she says incorrectly since she is already speaking too well; I seriously get mad at Joe when he tries to correct certain things she says)

-"Tangerang": This is her made up word that she uses all the time. It's mostly when I ask her what something is that she has drawn.
-"Especially": I love how she uses this word. She'll uses it all the time, saying things like "Especially, I love my dad", or "Especially, my sister is playing with her dolly".
-"Dance-stein Bears": This is how she pronounces "Berenstain".
-"I really love you, Mommy": enough said.
-"I never saw that before": She always says this about things she likes even though most of them time she has seen it before.
-"Remember yesterday when....": This is her preface to any memory she has from her past, whether it was actually yesterday or 2 years ago.
-"Smarshmallow": Her prounciation of "marshmallow". It makes me smile.
-"Vair-vy": This is phasing out a little bit but this is how she says "very". The extra v is subtle but it's there. I actually started saying it that way, too, after she did and now I have a hard time stopping.
-"Thumb-toe": This is her name for her big toe. :)

Natalie

-"Cry-neen" (crying): She loves to bring me her doll and say in a sad, quiet voice, "Oh, baby cry-neen". Then she gives her doll loves until the baby is happy. It's so cute.
-"See you later", "Be safe": She loves to say this to Daddy when he leaves in the morning.
-"Nope": Elizabeth loves to play "I Spy" so we play it frequently. When it's Natalie's turn she picks a color and then says "nope" to pretty much everything we guess. It's really funny.
-"I did it!": I love to see her proud of something she's done and announcing this.
-"Hold you-me!": "Hold you" has turned into this which is even cuter. You can't help but pick her up.
-"Go get it": Natalie will ask where someone is like Daddy or Lizzie and when I tell her she'll say this, meaning, let's go get that person.
-"I sorry, Mama": She says this whenever I injure myself somehow and she won't stop saying it until I say "I'm OK, Natalie".

Also, we had this funny exchange at lunchtime a couple days ago:

Natalie: I poopy!
Me: Yeah, I smell it.
Lizzie: I smell it, too.
Natalie: I smell it, three!
