Webster's Dictionary... Hein Boys Edition

Our boys are pretty good speakers.  Liam especially has a great vocabulary and often surprises me how quickly he can learn a word and use it correctly.  Here's an example...

Me:  "Liam be careful walking along that ledge."
Liam:  "Don't fret mommy.  I can do it!"

Don't fret?  Since when did my three year old age by about fifty decades?!  Lately Gabe and Landon have really started to show of their vocab skills too.  They are always willing to try out a new word, often with some pretty funny results!  Here are some examples...
  • MeNu (me-knew) - Landon's name for Liam.  Poor Liam, I hope this doesn't stick!
  • Meum - Gabe's name for Liam.  Ironically, this is what Liam called himself until he was 2.5 years old!
  • Gabey - Gabe and Landon's name for their blankies.  Don't know how this one started but it cracks me up!
  • Titty - How Landon says kitty.  Hilarious right?  Even more hilarious is that Landon's cousin Laura said the same thing when she was little.
  • Hosibal - How all three boys say hospital.
  • Aside -  I hear this EVERY SINGLE morning from Gabe and Landon.  Their ready to get "outside" and play!
  • Poscible - Otherwise know as a popsicle.  Something we have all the time in this Pittsburgh heat.
  • Agoo - What Gabe says for "hold you".
  • Munkin - Liam used to refer to muffin's this way.  Have to admit I was a little sad when he learned the right way to say this one.  How cute is munkin?!
  • Liam's version of the song "Life Is A Highway" - "Life is a highway.  I wanna ride in your highway all night long."  LOVE this one.  Makes me laugh every time.  :)
I took a video of Gabe singing "Life Is A Highway" the other day and will have to get it posted to the blog.  Courtesy of the movie Cars, this is a new favorite song at our house.  Someday all three of our boys will grow out of these sayings and into the real deals.  But for the time being, I hope they never do...    :)
