Five For Friday II: Favorite Jayna Words

The kid says pretty much every word now.  If you ask her to say it, she will.  Or atleast try.  And sometimes she'll say it even if you don't ask her...which is absolutely NOT working out to my advantage.  Here are my favorite variations of words from the Jayniac herself.
  1. Gunk.  See, most of us think, "Oh, okay.  Gunk.  Something icky."  Nope.  You're wrong.  To Jayna, gunk is milk.  Milk.  I'm not sure how this came about but it cracks me up EVERYTIME.
  2. Ozee.  Pronounced oh-zee.  This means Zoe, as in the little orange girl monster on Sesame Street.  Hilarious.
  3. Coney.  Not a chili dog.  She calls my brother, Tony, Coney.  I suppose he is sort of a weiner (haha).
  4. Cheat.  Not at cards or on your spouse.  To Jayna, cheat means Street...as in Sesame Street.
  5. Orsh.  What?!?  Yep, orsh.  I'll give you a hint:  it's both a color and a fruit.  Got it yet?
This child never ceases to make me laugh.  I'm going to get wrinkles.

Do you have little ones?  What are their favorite "child language" words?

I LOVE that little Jayna!! Ellie doesn't so much say funny things anymore (if she ever did). The only things i can think of are that she calls convertibles "outside cars." And since April 1 she has been playing jokes on me and then says "Ha Ha!! April 4th!!" I told her, "You know, it's 'April Fools' and you can only do it on April 1st, right?" Then she just says "Um. sure. but i want to say April 4th and do it all the time." I guess it's settled then...

What a CUTE picture for your blog!!! I love her pig tails! Layla's workin on growing her hair...
The wrinkle thing... I definitely get that, at least they will be for a good / fun reason!
Oh, and fun kid sayings... yestday Layla was pointing at my computer and telling me it was mommy's computer, then I repeated it, really pronouncing it (like this...Com PEW ter) and she laughed so hard, you know - that good belly laugh. So we kept doing that over and over again for about 20 minutes. Did it again today, I guess computer is the funniest word ever to a her right now!
