This ain't no house of straw

Addy built a house out of Mega Blocks this morning.  The following conversation ensued:


Addy: Nana, the house is ready!  You can be the Big Bad Wolf and I will be the 3 little pigs.


Miss C: Okay!  Little pig, little pig, let me come in!  Now you say, "Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin!"


Addy: Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin!


Miss C: Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!  [Miss C blows on the house].  Addy, you're supposed to knock down the house, remember?


Addy: Nuh-uh!  This is a house bricks!

More kid-isms

All separate occasions.  All pretty hilarious:

------
Nora: I want sammich!  And cheese!  And butter!
------
Nora (who has gone from having zero patience for books to an insatiable need to hear stories, or at least look at all the pictures): I want... moggers [monsters] book.  And dinos.  And monkeys.  And piats [pirates].  And egg.  And pincess [princess].  And George.  And...
------
Addy: Excuse me, Mom and Dad, but Sister and I need to have a private conversation over here, so please stay over there so we can have some privacy.
------
Addy: I would like some orange juice please.  Do we have all the ingredients to make that? [She specifically wanted orange flavored Kool-Aid.]
------
Addy (upon finding that the hamburger stew that I made for dinner had carrots, celery, mushrooms, and bell peppers, but not peas): Mom, why did you forget to put peas in the pot so they could cook?  Those are my favorite!
