like most toddlers, jack has a language all his own. we love the hilarious things he says and the new words he adds to our family vocabulary. here are some of our favorites:
- baboo = pumpkin
- beeka = banana
- beebug = ladybug, ant, etc.
- trash = oscar the grouch and/or green
- eyes = glasses
- gaga's ears = ear plugs
- humpy dumpy = humpty dumpty
- chewy-bacca = chewbacca
- big cheese = cheese stick
- zoom = light saber
- two clicks = buckling into his high chair or booster seat
- hands hands face = getting cleaned up after a meal
- pat pat drop = using toilet paper after going to the bathroom
he also has some memorable and frequently used quotes, such as:
- "no little push, just big push" [we get this a lot when we're playing on the swing in the backyard]
- "i peed into my pants" [this one was during the potty training stage]
- "just a little" [he wants to keep the door open a crack at nap or bedtime]
- "my eyes!" [which means he was crying and wants to wipe his tears on one of our shirts]
- "that's not right" or "mom, it's not perfect" [examples: when the blanket is wrinkled in his bed or the toilet paper does not tear off in one perfect square]
- "oh sorry dad, haha" [when he makes a little mistake like bumping into someone or dropping a toy]
- "it's a beautiful day!" [sometimes he blurts this one out just because]
- "i don't know" [his answer to "what are you doing?" when he thinks he might get in trouble]
- "jack jack NEED that" [typically referring to some kind of treat donald has]
- "i sure do!" [his affirmative answer to any "do you want..." question]
