OK so Ryan is talking up a storm which is great and all. The thing is…he seems to like to replace the “M” sound with a “B” sound…
Milk = Bilk (not to be confused in the car for BOOK which he will then shoot you the look from hell and throw the book across the seat until you realize he meant MILK…true story)
Cows say “Boo!” instead of MOO
Momma = Bobba
Which leads us to Mommy = Bobby. I now answer to Bobby.
Michael has stared calling me Bobba and so has Freddy…it’s. just. wonderful. Let me tell you!
At least I don’t have it as bad as our dog. Murphy (who we commonly call Murph) = Burph. It’s like a cross between a burp and a barf. So I guess I should be happy with Bobby and Bobba!
Although he says Mickey Mouse as Dee-Dee??? I guess for Mic-key (dee-dee). I have no idea what’s going on in that kids’ head!
But I now answer to Bobby.
That is too cute! My little one say “nilk” for milk. She has a couple other silly words, but she definitely says Momma or Mommy right. :)
Oh, he is just TOO adorable! I have a picture of my grandson at about that age sitting in a cupboard just like Ryan is! He’s 18 now. Oh, they grow up just too stinkin’ fast. Thanks for the chuckle, Bobby! Looking forward to your next post!
My grandson said most every word that began with an ‘f’ as a ‘d’ so we constantly heard dinger instead of finger and dunny instead of funny — aren’t they just the cutest when they are learning to talk?
Hi Bobby!
Che,
When Jac was little she used to want to go to the “Tag Store” and she wanted to go there a lot. But I could never figure it out and then one day when a friend and I went to Ft. Collins, CO – we lived in Cheyenne, WY at the time – and took a different route than usual. As we drove up the street from the opposite direction my daughter yelled “Mom, Tag Store!” I followed her finger point and low and behold she meant Best Buy!

P.S. How’s the packing going? And when you move does that mean that my adoption is cancelled? :(
That’s hilarious…but makes total sense! Moved this past weekend, seems to be taking forever to get settled, and your adoption is NOT cancelled! :)
Too funny! I nanny, and the younger one (22 months) tends to call me ca-ca because he can’t say Monica… not my favorite thing in the world, lol! He’s so stinkin’ cute though, so he can get away with it ;)
That’s exactly right Monica! They are CUTE so they get away with it!
Sometimes, kids really make their own name of things and even other people…They make a new nickname for us, right?LOL…
