see ya.....

When Joey was little, little he used to say, "see ya budda budda be ya"! Instead of "see ya wouldn't want to be ya"!

Harry MacLary

Joey got a book from his buddy Rowan for his 4th birthday> We both love reading it. Our favorite charachter is Schnitzel von Krumm (with a very low tum). I started calling Joey Schnitz!

Hospital

They both mispronounce the word hospital... they say HOSIBLE.

Buttsie

My mom used to always call the kids bums 'buttsie'. Claudia got confused when she was little and called the FRONT buttsie and it just stuck. The back is coolie (Italian word that means butt) and the front is buttsie. When Claudia became 'aware' of the physiological differences between she and Joey, she started calling his a 'MOVING BUTTSIE'.

But, Joey has since named his 'my tail'. He seriously thought when he was smaller that it was a tail just like a dog has.

Tic Tac

Claudia used to call a tic tac a "tic tock' and Joey, until recently, called them 'tic tac toe's.

Jusk-appear

When Joey took swimming lessons in the fall of 2009, his instructor, Mr. Henry would go under the water and stay under for a little while. Joey would tell me about it, passionately, and told me that Mr Henry "JUSKAPPEARED".
