I'm telling you, it's comical. One time a cat showed up and our house and Wade named him "Open Doorie" because the garage door was open when he found the cat.
Let me introduce you to some of their favorite stuffed animals...
Here's Henry's Chameleon
named:
MILLION.
Hippo named:
POTTOMUS
Sock Monkey named:
HERKULMUR (pronounced Her-kul-mer)
My aunt named him that, and it stuck. ha :)
A cow named
MOO
And my favorites:
Henry's o-o-o- ah-ah-ah (the sounds a monkey makes)
and
Wade's WakerUpper (because Wade's monkey wakes him up in the mornings...)
Henry also has Blue Puppy (do you even need a picture for that visual?!?!) and Wade has Bear-Bear (can you guess what kind of stuffed animal he is??!)
So, there you have it- my boys have embraced their Indian friends way of naming things... I just hope they outgrow it before I have grandkids named "Bald Head" or "Round Bottom"
Mommy loves you Wade and Henry!
It must be a kid thing - I had a Baby and a Bunny growing up!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of our mission trip in high school to Tohatchi, NM and we somehow gave ourselves names like that. I believe mine was "Dances Like Donkey" and Nancy's was something about glowing in the dark. For obvious reasons, of course! :)
