Escherisms


  • We've been telling him about Santa and listening to Christmas music, etc... This morning he tells me "Santa bring dude, water buffalo and spider monkey and green sea turtle and macaroni penguin and whooping crane and black panther and dreaming child. ok mommeee?" 
  • While Santa has been able to find the book "Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What do You See?" in which all these animals are mentioned, he has been unable to find a water buffalo figurine.. What 2 year old asks for a water buffalo?
  • We have been instituting time out for severe offenses such as hitting, biting and kicking. It is starting to help, and thankfully Escher is very good about hugging and saying "I'm sowwy... Dude sowwwy" to whoever he hurt in the first place.
  • Whenever we leave the house, Escher asks "Pass elephant and giraffe?" (jungle golf down at the oceanfront) Now, he knows that if we turn left out of our street then we are going to pass Elephant and Giraffe. 
  • Escher can see a highway roadside ChicFilA sign from far away. He says "There chicfway sign! There! Lets go, go in!"
  • We were in the car the other day, behind a older truck with lots of exhaust coming out of it. Escher says "Ewww Mommee Dude smell Rhino-sus. Yucky!" (Last time we were at the zoo, it didn't smell so pleasant by the rhinoceros. I'm guessing thats where he got it!)
