wordish wednesday | WELCOME TO... our funny play on words!

so, we asked ryan where he wanted to go for his birthday and he said he wanted to go to "moses".
i nearly fell in the floor laughing.

and, of course, i act like i don't know what he is talking about just so i can hear him say it again. 

moe's...we keep this place in biz-nass!

we even made our own moe's game. once, when phoenix just started learning rhyming words at school, we tried to come up with every word that rhymes with moe's by saying "welcome to ______!" (fill in the blank with the word that rhymes with moe's.

are we cool or what?

"welcome to grows!"
"welcome to blows!"
"welcome to LOWES!"
"welcome to close!"
"welcome to nose!"
"welcome to toes!"
"welcome to rows!"
"welcome to flows!"

okay, you get the idea.

welcome to moses

and of course, while we ate tacos, nachos, burritos, and quesadillas, elijah ate cookies. he is going through a phase. it's frustrating!

i do love how he throws his hands in the air when he is finished and says "all gone!" 

and backing up, i also love that as children learn language, they don't always get things right.

in our house we have heard the following:

moses = MOE'S
vermote = remote (as in the tv "vermote")
enballope = envelope
gas bump = gas pump
licks glop = lip gloss
mrs. eggwarts = mrs. edwards (phoenix's TA)

just to name a few.

what are some funny things your kids say?
