Walt, Meet George

Two and three year olds are the best when it comes to language. As they strive to grasp the finer points, they often come up with the best vocabulary blunders. Malia is no exemption to that tendency.

Lately she has come up with some great verbal creations in relation to the t.v. shows she is fond of. The first one to pop up was Wookie Mouse, Mickey's hairy cousin. In a moment of boredom at work, Kev googled "Wookie Mouse" and actually came up with a completely applicable image. It would seem that there is a lady in Amsterdam who makes stuffed mice in a variety if themes and sells them on etsy (her shop is called “The House of Mouse” if you want to check it out). So Wookie Mouse actually exists and it makes me giggle. 



Several of my other favorites include Serious George (who is not anywhere near as fun as his curious counterpart), and Christmas Street (where Elmo and Big Bird deck the halls all year long).

I'm always sad when my kids grow up enough that they no longer make such wonderfully awesome verbal blunders. Life is just a little bit duller when all their words are completely accurate.


(fyi: the bandaid on her nose is because she rubs her nose with her finger when she sucks her thumb and always seems to scratch herself. Then she picks the scab off repeatedly so it never heals.)
