things archie says


this one has a bit of a feisty side, but gosh is he hilarious and hearing him laugh is just the best. here are some entries from the dictionary of archie:

  • pack pack = backpack [he loves to make sure dad doesn't forget his "pack pack" before work]
  • golden fish = goldfish crackers [he later started asking for "gold fish, blue fish, and regular fish" based on the color of the package and the fact that he was introduced to pretzel fish first]
  • pitar = guitar [he will also call a guitar a violin]
  • bing bing bong = the song "axel f" by crazy frog
  • lellow = yellow [i kind of hope this one never stops]
  • puh-jammies = pajamas
  • tennis shoe = tissue ["i need a tennis shoe!"]
  • next-en = next to ["i want to sit next-en to to you"]
  • minja chucks = ninja turtle nunchucks
  • primacy = privacy ["i need some primacy"]
  • extra love bonus = an extra anything [this started when he'd ask for an extra bonus book at bedtime and i'd say "yes, because i love you" and now it applies to books, snacks, etc.]


and these are some of our favorite funny phrases and conversations:

  • "mommy my feet are blazing cold!"
  • "can you buckle me out?" [aka please unbuckle me]
  • "my hope is in the Lord!!!" [he gets VERY excited every time this song comes on]

  • "but...and i'm not saying the private word" 
  • "dear Jesus, thank you for our food. bless you to our bodies. help dad go to work. amen."
