OK, so here’s the answer key. There were a lot of creative answers and a couple of you got some right. Everyone was stumped by the first and last ones though.
Me eek keys in the boo-koo-montney?
“Me eat cheese in the supermarket?” Can’t go to the market without stopping by the deli for a slice of cheese. Luckily, even if I’m not buying cheese the folks at the deli counter are always willing to give S a slice. Try to get the girl to eat a slice of cheese at home? She’ll have none of it.
Me want more bup in my cup!
“Me want more milk in my cup!” Bup has always been her word for milk. I tried to teach her to say it correctly by having her copy me saying “mmmmm” and then “mmmmm-milk.” But she says “mmmmmm-bup.” Oh well.
Me all done beeking!
“Me all done sleeping!” Naturally, beeking = sleeping. She shouts this over and over again when she wakes up.
(singing) Cakey car ish kittniss!
This one is S singing along to the radio, and I had the pleasure of hearing it for the entire length of a song, and most of the rest of the day. “Taking care of business!” You would have known it if you heard it because girl’s got rhythm.
This was fun. I might add S-isms as a regular feature along with my WTF Tapas. What do you think?
Ooh, tricksy! Those were really cute, thanks for sharing.
I guessed she was talking about eating, but had no clue what.
Obviously bup = milk, I mean who doesn’t know that? Lol. Actually both my kids had said bup instead of cup. I would do the c-c-cup, and they would do c-c-bup……along with other things.
I remember now reading about how the kids were singing along to taking care of business, and now reading that to the tune totally makes sense. Freaking adorable.
mmmmmmmm bup!!!! lmao all i heard was “mmmmmbop!!!!” lol i love 2 yr old language .. my daughter is 2 and my youngest son just turned 5.. they both had and have very interesting ways of saying many things! thanks for sharing!!! funny thing… last night my 14 yr old sister tried (and failed) 4 times to say the word THERMOMETER!!!! hilarious!!
That was great! LOVE the Taking Care of Business one
My daughter had some of these as a toddler, too. Her most famous was “Boo-Poo Pee-Pee”, which naturally translates to “Blue’s Clues Blanket”, and earned us our fair share of strange/confused/distressed looks from strangers.
Too funny!
Definitely keep adding them!
Yaaaay! Loved this S-isms. Please do keep posting them
Cute! I thought the first one was about eating cheese… I just couldn’t figure out where!
ha! I love the first one! My mom said when I was little I used to call Captain Crunch, crappy crunch. So funny how kids hear something totally different.
I say definitely keep adding S-isms. Hilarious! I miss those days of trying to figure out what the hell my kid was saying.
I thought of you yesterday. I woke from my “nap” to my 2 year old calling (loudly, and over and over again:)
OH SHIT?! Ware rar oooh? OH SHIT?! Ware rar ooh? OH SHIT?! OH SHIT?!
We had just gone to the beach the weekend before. She was looking for the “ocean.”
That was like a game of Mad Gab!!
yes please add these regularly as they are awesome! In my house a blanket is known as a blaint-naught LOL! close enough i guess.
I love your blog! So so so much! I am a new fan. And you’re right, you do make me feel better about my parenting. Not because I parent better than you but I also lose my cool when my 4 year still shits her pants every now and then. I thought I was the only one for a long time. Now I know due to you and your fans that these are normal mom reations not “super mom” ones. Oh and is it bad that I left the potty training up to my mom and babysitter while went to work? I still don’t know what I’m going to do about my second daughter…I moved away from family and am now a stay at home mom and I hate it.
“Mmmmm-bup”!
I liked it!
I always look forward to the WTF Tapas, S-ims is a great follow-up, especially with the quiz
Btw, “bup” as in… “boob”?
Nope. Girl’s been off the boob since she was about 10 weeks old.
Love the takin care of business! I like S-isms! Great idea!
Definitely keep up with the S-isms! As the first-time mother of a 2 year old girl, I am an avid reader! I love your style of writing, and am highly entertained by S!
Your blogs are hilarious! Anyway, here is a link that I think you should check out: http://www.facebook.com/HeyWordy
