You Say Tomato, I Say Tomato

Ellen's mispronunciations are so cute. We do say the word correctly and then have her repeat it back to us, but it doesn't always stick with her. She usually repeats the word correctly but then reverts back to her old ways. She still puts "s" on the end of a lot of words. A few examples:

Room = Roon
Bowl = Bold
Sleeping Beauty = Sleeping Muney
Spaghetti = Sketties
Corduroy = Cordaboy
TV = TB
Yellow = Lello

Something = Sumping

Cupcake = Pupcake

Napkin = Natkin


She also runs names together:

Bert & Ernie = Berternie (even if it is just one of them-like her Ernie bath toy is Berternie)
Cole & Savannah = Colenana


Words/phrases that we especially like the way she says them:

Chocolate
Handy Manny
Sesame Street
ABC's
Washcloth
Girls
Popcorns
Green Beans
"What you have Mommy/Daddy?" - when we have something she wants
"What boy/girl doing?" - when watching other people

"I wake up!" - every morning and after every nap
