Gavin has an exceptional vocabulary for a child his age, his understanding of words and their meaning and his conversational skills often make me forget that he is just three, which makes the pronunciations of certain words that much cuter.
-Lellow (yellow) What makes this so strange/funny is that he can pronounce the Y sound, they study a different letter each week at school and so on the Y week I was anxious to see how he pronounced all the words that they learned starting with Y. So we were going over them and he would say Yak, Yarn, lellow. And I said, "no listen to the Y sound, yuh, yuh, yuk, say yak, yak, yellow" and he would repeat back to me, "Yak, Yak, Lellow"... I couldn't help but laugh it was so cute.
-Teaf as in "Daddy is that your sweet teaf?"
- Yogrit, one of his top three most favorite foods, yogurt
- Jake a land pirate, one of the more tolerable Disney cartoons Jake and the Neverland Pirates.
- Stank you, but he only uses this one sporadically. It never fails to make me smile when he says "Stank you Mama"
- Printzels and Chippies
- Nola bar for granola bar, although we have probably just reinforced that pronunciation because now we call them nola bars as well, ha!
- Votional, We have the The One-Year Devotions for Preschoolers that we read every night before bed
- And last but not least, Mrs. Sara, the wonderful lady who picks Gavin up and takes him to choir on Wednesdays told me a few weeks ago that one Wednesday after they got to church, Gavin told her that he had gotten "rain drops" on himself while in her car. It was sweat, isn't that the cutest!!!
