Funny kidisms

A while back I kept telling Jacob and Jordan to stop saying, "Ginormous" (combining gigantic and enormous). I told them it wasn't a real word and that was silly. Well, so many people starting using it that now I have to eat my words because Webster is adding that word to the dictionary.

So now they are using other "not real" words that I hear my students at school constantly using as well such as: chillaxing,be-awesome, redonculous, etc.

Rachel is starting to pick up on these words. I asked her the other day what she was doing and she said, "Just chillaxing."

She has also started calling Joshua, "Joshy". It's really cute. This morning I heard her say, "I love you Joshy, but you always hurt me." It was in her high-pitched Rachel voice, though.

Ian actually said "ginormous" the other day! We were having a serious conversation, but I couldn't help but crack up laughing when he said it because it was so unexpected!
