As in when they are tiny and learning to speak obv, not revising for Oxbridge entrance exam...

Mine are 'Larf!' for the note that follows 'Sew' in the song Doe a Dear, 'turk-noise' for turquoise, oh and she likes to eat a nice 'cereal bath' every so often. She has recently adapted 'Grandad' to 'Dadgrandad' having noticed I address him as 'Dad'. My Speech Therapist sister used to encourage her very early habit of saying 'moo' when she saw a dog because she found it hilarious, but I drew the line there...

Bit of indulgence for the weekend and I am sick so could use the distraction!

Cogliog - college, my first nanny job, she's 29 but I still say it.

DS still occasionally says "by my own"

Mazagine, which I still say much to DD's disgust.

Ds1:

Tracksuit bottoms = excercise trouser
Ice cubes = icicles
Solider = attention man

and parrots say peices of parrot not peices of eight.

I do love the world according to ds1, it does make me smile!!
