Cute words from Sammie

When we were in Portugal, one night Samantha and I were waiting in the car while Brian went to check us into our hotel. I took the opportunity to film Sam saying some of her cute little words. Thought you might enjoy hearing her (sorry, it is hard to see her, but listening might be fun?)...

Some of my favorite things Sammie says right now:

• chockie lupk (chocolate milk),
• Priprie(Christmas) there are several variations, of course -- Priprie presents, Priprie yights, Priprie tree, etc.;
• gwink (drink);
• go-urt (yogurt);
• gween car (she affectionately refers to our Honda as the green car ALL the time -- Abby's car is "Abby's wed car");
• yetz (yes -- just the cutest little lisp when she says it);
• up here (a complete synonym for "away". She has heard me say "let's put that up here" enough times, that she uses it whenever she wants to put something away. )
• Jay! (she still talks about Uncle Jay all the time. Even when we sing ABCs, she gets hung up on the 'J' and starts emphatically saying "Jay! Jay!" and has a hard time finishing the song.);
• Bawma (grandma OR grandpa -- she still can't get the "gr" sound, but she definitely knows who we're talking about when we say grandma or grandpa);
• prettia (Samantha's word for pretty, not sure where she got the "a" at the end, but it's prettia cute!);
• hookie (means pencil sharpener. We have no idea where she got that from, but we think it's pretty funny so we encourage it);
• six it (fix it, whenever one of her toys doesn't work just like she wants it to.);
• Jesus Christ, Amen (at the end of her prayers. She usually wants to end her prayers right AFTER she starts, and ends up saying Jesus' name several times throughout the prayer, thinking we're near the end, I presume);
• pooz (her word for spoon.) She actually has a series of words where she puts the s at the end, rather than the beginning, a bit of verbal dyslexia? -- tools (stool); tohbs (stove); nacks (snack); pots (spot);
• close it (she loves to open and close things, and right now is telling me to "close it" -- the computer.)

Bye for now!
