nate-isms

i've missed writing down so many of these over time that it kind of makes me sad. maybe doing this will jog my memory on some of the older ones, too. some recent nate-isms include:

east western = any and all best western hotels
free = three
yo dabba dabba = yo gabba gabba, a very annoying show in nick
honk-choo = snoring
bless-you'd = sneezed, as in "i bless-you'd and need a tissue."
mote comotrol = remote control, either for the tv or an RC car
mabecka = his friend rebecka (sp?) who moved away recently (we miss you, mabecka and chelle and ethan!)
maseem = his friend naseem who lives in albuquerque


some older nate-isms include:

excator = excavator, this was one of nate's first words
alquerque = albuquerque, also a surprisingly early word
snowing = snowing *and* snow in general and snow on the ground (inuit, schminuit, one word works for all of it!)
itty att = with the proper inflection this was his official first word, kitty cat
o? = this was when nate first started pretending to talk on the phone. he'd pick up anything with buttons on it, put it to the very back of his bald head, and say "o?" so grown up!
shishy = fishy, this was usually accompanied by the sign for fish

we all know there are tons more and hopefully they will come to mind again. i think this kind of thing is super cute, and makes him all his own because no two kids have the same little isms.
