things jack says

most of this lingo is used so often at our house that it's become part of our everyday language. i love getting to be the one who knows what it all means:

• pichu = a gun of some kind

• queen of statues = the statue of liberty

• pass it over = repeat [e.g. a song or story]

• the pink lady = mariah carey [because she wore a big, pink dress in the macy's thanksgiving day parade]

• buh-jammies = pajamas

• the a-bobble head = the abominable snowman

• map = game instructions, puzzle box, etc.

• ticket = paper money

• lip chap = chapstick

• sh*t-tle bug = skittles [this one was both surprising and hilarious]

• tracker = his stuffed horse

• coolock = his baby doll

• key = his toy snake [which mom is NOT a fan of]

and these are some of his best quotes, most of which we hear pretty frequently:

• "happy sunday morning, happy sunday morning, happy sunday morning, get up and go to church!" [the song he sings every sunday morning]

• "poop, poop, i went poop!" [the alert that lets us know he went poop]

• "let me do something 'bery' quick"

• "i just need tell you one thing. the thing i need to tell you is..."

• "look, there's beautiful mom!" [pretty sure dad influenced this one, but i love it]

• "okay my queen" [not sure where this came from, but it makes us giggle]

• "an idea popped into my head"

• "i got an idea...let's do a family hug!"

• "mom, i think i really love you!"

• "not today spikey balls! i have shoes on."

• "...that's my plan. is that a good plan mom?"

• "first i have to get everything situated." [like mother, like son]

• "dad i like your shirt. you look handsome. you look like a handsome zookeeper."
