Zoë is quite the chatterbox and sometimes the things that she says are hilarious and altogether so, so cute. Take this, for example:
This is one of those mini gummy burgers. She calls it a BOOH(r)-ger, as in, “Mommy, can I have a BOOH(r)-ger, please? Pretty please?” Just imagine the looks I might get from people overhearing my daughter ask beg me for a booger.
A hula hoop is a hoopaloop.
Josh tried to teach her to say it the correct way. This was how the lesson went:
Zoë, say hula.Hula.Say hoop.Hoop.Now say hula hoop.Hoopaloop.I give up, Mommy.
And this utterly delectable cupcake?
Is a POPcake.

I like her words way better anyhow!
It's so cute how kids think they are saying things the correct way!!
Those gummy boohr-gers are my favorites. Seriously. Or maybe I shouldn't be admitting that. But I am, and they are.
I need a popcake, too. Right after I go do ten hoopaloops. ;)
Too cute!
So cute! I love kid-talk :) One of my kids used to call Sloppy Joes "slippy joes" -- we still call them that even though he can say it correctly!!
I'm so glad you are writing these down! I know you think you'll never forget, but time makes memories fade. My husband remembers my kids "mispronunciations" more than I do!
Hahahaha...love it!
I noticed, during Joy School this week, that all FOUR of the girls call their school bags "packbacks." Too cute.
aww how cute is your daughter!! i can't wait for my bub to start talking. :)

I stand by your daughter. Because that instrument of torture is definitely a hoopaloop.
Hupaloop! That's great. I definitely like that wood better! And your son what a brave little man for trying to teach her! That is so sweet! Have a wonderful day!
Hoopa loop actually sounds like more fun than a hula hoop!
Found your blog on MBC. I'm following your blog. Please follow back at:

Nan.
I love the way kids say hard words, it's adorable. You almost don't even want to correct them..except maybe for the booger one! ;)
Hulalooping sounds like the verb.
lol...how cute! I love it when kids talk like that..Happy Monday!
Kids are so cute when they try to pronounce what they think they hear. I'm laughing thinking about you and Z at McDonald and she asking you if she can have a booger.
How sweet of Josh to give her lessons on how to say hula hoop. Her way of saying it is pretty cute.
Mine used to ask for a bite of my drink. She is using words to express herself and that is what's important.
I'm glad you're writing these down too - it's such a fun thing to look back on. Like your new header!
boohger!!
I can totaly picture that Josh-Zoe conversation.
I'd like a gummy burger and a pop-cake please.
