For those of you who haven't talked with Avery recently, I thought I’d give you a little peek into her unique vocabulary. See if you can make out these words...
bullerwhy
pockissle
macanroni
tonypail,
kitchem
bailey suit
slissors,
upslidedown
pockissle
macanroni
tonypail,
kitchem
bailey suit
slissors,
upslidedown
The last two are actually hand-me-downs... in fact, Ezra still says upslide down!
... reminds me of a conversation I once had with Todd. He must have been around Avery’s age when I tried to get him to say ice cream properly. I carefully said, "ice cream" and Todd repeated, "icheem." We went back and forth like that for a little while, me saying "ice cream," Todd, "icheem." He soon became impatient with what he thought was my mispronunciation of the word because he looked up at me and said, very clearly, "No, not ice cream... icheem!"

Todd SO adored you when he was that age; you were (are!) such a terrific aunt.
Do I get to be Avery's auntie Bailey-suit? I can live with that!
I can't wait to get to know all of the isms!
By the way, I just saw your offer to make me mole which I definitely want in on! Perhaps we could even make it together to make sure I get it right when I try to replicate it at home.

prettyful
palulah (computer, somehow)
hurchie (as in, I need a bandaid on my hurchie)
