  aww, I know what you mean! my son has outgrown all but two of his 🙁 He still says amb-lee-ance for ambulance, and bref-test for breakfast. ones he’s outgrown: jupes (grapes), dooba-diver (screwdriver), messetary (cemetary), fire distinguisher (fire extinguisher), babannas (bananas)

  Mine isn’t talking much yet- his first an so far only word is “Fsh” (fish). He likes to climb up on the couch muttering “fsh fsh fsh” all sneaky-like; as if we don’t see him trying to touch the tank.

  Kangar-woo. She’s four, I still say kangarwoo thanks to her, and she corrects me for it.

  My daughter usually says ‘sukamarket’ instead of supermarket, or we used to get ‘lip moss’ for lip gloss 🙂

  Griffin for quite some time would say “snecksme” when he wanted someone to sit right next to him. We noted that the baby talk wouldn’t last much longer and were sad to see the term fade. 🙂

  Our son is just starting to talk, and daddy is often “da-doo”. Dinner is “dinn-o”. He’s also trying for cheese, which he loves, but much like “fsh” above it comes out as “chshhhz” over and over. <3

  Enjoy them while you can. Get them on video too. By the time the kids are in school, their vocabulary loses most of these cute little quirks.

  My two-year-old son decided that “lotion” was actually “baby sauce.” I had no problem with this and I loved hearing the little “fight” he had with his mom over its proper name. (“It’s not lotion! It’s baby sauce!!”)

  I really miss my son saying “birdalie” for bird but am comforted that he calls Yoda “lola” and often asks for “dam” (graham) crackers. As in “I want some dam crackers”

  My son is now 11.5 and in middle school. He used to say pup cake (cupcake) and paterkiller (caterpillar). I miss those days so much now….
  However, he will still call me Dad and my husband Mom… it ends up being daddy-mommy or mommy-daddy, just out of habit, I guess.

  My niece used to say mow-lawner and dinner was “dooney.” One of my sons used to say bufferly for butterfly and at-ta for ta-da. Both of my four-year-old twins say breaksast.

  Our little guy says “cock” for clock. One day at a restaurant he saw a big black clock and let everyone know, very loudly.

  He also says hamberbers (hamburgers) elegagor (elevator) and etmeal (oatmeal). To name a few favorites.

  My daughter loved “dawbuhdies” (strawberries) as a toddler. My son at age 4 is still convinced that Skittles are called “mosquitos.”
