James-isms

James is talking so much now. He frequently is asking "Whats dis?" and then answering it himself. He is obsessed with pointing at and saying "Eyebrow!" I love the way he says some things that I just have to share his James-isms.

Jamesie- What he calls himself.

'Licious—(my personal favorite). James is very prudent in his use of this word. It is only for foods that he finds especially delicious. For example, the grape juice mixed with sprite he had at Anna's birthday party. He said 'licious after every sip.

Up-and-down— James could not remember which was up and which was down, so he combined the two words and it now means whatever condition he is not currently in. If he wants to be held, it means up. If he is being held, it means down.

Nummy bread—what he calls homemade bread. I usually awake in the morning to James' smiling face right next to mine saying "Piece of nummy bread?"And if I forgot to put it on top of the fridge, he is holding it.

Ap'in—what he calls his apron which he insists on wearing when I made "nummy bread."

Squish bread—his term for kneading "nummy" bread. He insists on helping.

Temp-o—Temple. Any building with a steeple or that he is things is sufficiently grand is called "temp-o" or castle.

Nana b'ake it—Anna broke it. He blames Anna for everything and only calls her Nana.

Oh No! Oh No! Oh No! its b'oken!—"B'oken" is his word for anything that he feels is not in right or that he cannot put right by himself.

Daddy scareme—Daddy Scary. James loves to be scared which basically consists of just growling at him. He thinks its hilarious. I think he is adorable.
