2013 Kidisms

Once again, the annual round-up of the Bamatamb "Kidisms," or things my kids say that I want to remember.  Almost all of the Kidisms this year were from Bree.  She is quite the little talker.  She picks up on fun sayings and slang words (every night as we are getting her ready for bed she tells us, "I want to say 'peace out' to Miles and Tess.")  Just yesterday I overheard her saying to Bryan, "what up dog?  Hey, doggy Daddy, what up?"  She's a nut.  I think my favorite mispronunciation of hers (which I will be so sad when it's gone) is "ga-lurl" for girl.

Tess has been asking us a lot lately about getting her ears pierced...we're not so sure if she's ready yet. When we reminded her that her best friend (who is 8 1/2 years old) doesn't even have her ears pierced yet, Tess replied very seriously, "yeah, and do you know WHY she doesn't have her ears pierced? It's because she's not a fashionista, like me!" (ha!)

Tess was going to vacuum for me and she just pulled one loop of cord off of the cord holder and then asked, "If I keep this ravelled, will it just unravel as I vacuum?" :)

August 2013

Bree knows that when her food is hot, we blow on it to cool it down...just this week she has begun generalizing that idea in such cute ways: when her flip-flop fell off and she stepped on the hot sidewalk she said, "hot! Blow on it!" and tried to blow on her foot. Then that same night in the tub, she felt the water and again said, "hot! Blow on it!" and blew toward the faucet! Ha!

When Bree hears us say that something is Miles's, she notices the 2 "z" sounds at the end of it ("MileZ-Z"), but she has taken it farther and does 3 "z" sounds with pauses in between them. So it sounds something like, "this is Miles...iz...iz!"

Bree has a backpack that she loves. It is called either "bat pat" or "skoo" (for "school"). She always asks me to "wear it on," which is a combination of "wear it" and "put it on."
