Michaelisms

In my last post (which was quite a long time ago!), I shared some of my favorite things that Abby says that make us smile.  Now that Michael is saying a lot more words, I need to record some of my favorite Michaelisms. 

Shoo- (noun) This can mean one of two things: The first one is somewhat obvious- "shoe".  The second option is a little less obvious- "fish".  The good news is that it is usually pretty easy to determine whether he is referring to swimming creatures or footwear.  This also works for socks or anything else that goes on his feet. :) 

Aye- (noun) This would be Michael's word for "milk".  I am not exactly sure how that came about.  For a very brief time, he pronounced "milk" in the same way that Timothy did at that age, which is even more difficult to try to spell than it is to say- "Blggoobllgw".  While Timothy stuck with that one, (Thankfully we had taught him to sign the word milk also, or we would have been hard-pressed to figure that one out.), Michael switched it up with a much easier word, both to say and spell.

"Eeya Doh."  This would be translated as "Here you go."  It just makes me smile, the way he says it. :) When he wants me to pick him up, he will come up to me with his arms up and say "Eeya doh."  :)

Bubble- (noun)  While this can refer to the obvious- bubble, it is also his word for blueberries- definitely a favorite in our house. :)  

"Ah Ditey!"  Translation- "Alrighty!" 

Pee pee-  (noun)  This is not what you would think.  Instead of being used as a bathroom reference, this is his word for pizza.  Appetizing, don't you think? :)

Eee hee or Hee hee- (noun)  This started out as his way of saying "horsey".  However, more recently he has started saying "Yeehaw!" every time he sees a horse. :)

I am sure there are more that I will have to add, but that is all I can think of right now. :)  I love my kids and I am so thankful God blessed me with being their mama. :)
