Things My Two Year Old Says
Toph is at an age where he is talking up a storm and his dialect? Definitely that of a two year old. I listen to him speak and just want him to speak that way forever. I can understand him perfectly, but after spending lots of time with new people on our vacation last week, I realized that not everyone is privy to this two year old dialect.
Here is a glossary for you:
my: I
ex. My play, mama. (I want to play, mama.)
Memmy: Merry
ex. Memmy pooped, Mama. (Merry pooped, Mama.) <-------Coincidentally, I know a lot about the cat's bowel movements thanks to Toph.
hungy: hungry.
ex. My hungy, Mama. (I'm hungry, Mama.)
froggies: kittens
ex. Let's go check the froggies! (Let's go check the kittens!) <------When our cat first had the kittens, he assured me those were not baby cats but baby frogs.
PB: TV
ex. My watch PB, Mama. (I want to watch TV, Mama.)
happitter: helicopter
ex. My see happitter, mama! (I see a helicopter, Mama!)
motodoodoo: motorcycle
ex. My hear motodoodoo! (I hear a motorcycle!)
big mosher: big monster
ex. BIG MOSHER!! (Big monster!) <-------Usually said in reference to the whale in Finding Nemo.
oushide: outside
ex. My play oushide. (I want to play outside.)
peese: please
ex. My go oushide peese. (I want to go outside very badly and know you like for me to use the word please.)
tacopeesa: taco pizza
ex. My eat tacopeesa shuppertime. (I would like taco pizza for supper.) <--------The child's favorite foods are tacos and pizza.
shuppertime: supper
(See above.) <-------The cutest thing is that every time he hears the oven timer he yells, "Shuppertime!"

I suddenly had a happy/sad moment as I remembered vividly how P. used to say "Mama, hold you!" when she wanted to be held or picked up. I love how eloquent she is but I miss that stuff a little bit.
Motodoodoo and hAppitter have to be my favorite. I love this age!
I love the language of a two year old. It is so fun to watch them learn new words and put those words into sentences.
