Halle-isms Part 2 (and other odd behavior)

As heard the other day when I asked her to please open the baby gate for her brother: 'That's not my ploblem'. (It quickly became her pLoblem.  L'il stinker!)

Much like her little friend Amy(who also has a few 'isms' herself), Halle also says 'Big Stister' and heaven forbid you should also say 'stister' because interestingly enough, she knows you are pronouncing 'sister' incorrectly.

Not really an 'ism' but I almost fell over when I heard it.  Halle has taken to standing on a chair on the other side of the counter when we are getting meals ready.  Tonight she was standing there as usual and Ethan was in the dining room.  All of a sudden she yells 'Fire in the hole!' and throws a piece of paper at him. Where the heck did she get the phrase 'fire in the hole'??

The other day she came out with this one when I asked her a question 'It never occurred to me Momma'.  Who is raising this child?  Where is she getting these things?? 

If anyone is wondering why the Wiggles haven't been on tour this week it's because Jeff 'Wiggle' has been living in our house and the rest of the time, Halle is on the phone with Greg, Mary (Who is actually Murray but with Halle's newly acquired Aussie accent, it sounds like Mary.  Say it out loud...you'll hear it!) and 'whatsthatotherboysname?'.  Jeff eats with us every meal, he's goes to the potty, he tells hilarious jokes and does crazy stuff that makes Halle burst out laughing from the other room.  She couldn't find him after breakfast yesterday and that was because 'Momma he was power napping on your bed!!'. 

Ethan also has 'isms' of his own and we discover new things everyday but his focus mainly is on destruction, running away when I am trying to get him dressed (and laughing about it maniacally) and hammering things...that might fall under destruction.  However, my sweet little boy will turn at any given moment and run across the room and throw himself at me with both arms open and give me a big hug and baby kiss (open mouth, lots of drool, sometimes a lick)  We can buy new furniture, carpet, hardwoods, cabinets and patch and paint walls but only that boy (yes, Al, sorry) can melt my heart with one look.
