You're saying it wrong...
What are some words your LO pronounces "wrong"? Isa has been cracking me up in that department recently.
A few of my favorites:
C@ck = clock
Chewseum = museum
Toes = toast
Kevin = Kathryn
$hits = shirts

Re: You're saying it wrong...
Lucy says about half of her words "wrong "right now. My faves..
peeeeaaaashe = please
dayou=thank you
Lella=Stella, the dog
sh!t=sit
sheet=seat
mouwww=meow
Apparently this is how DH said it when he was little. =P
Livy doesn't have a lot of words right now but I love when she says Thank You. It sounds like "deh doo." Warms my heart.
C@ck= clock
Ook=Look
B!tch=fence (no idea but it's F-in hilarious)
DS has some good ones.
Lemon juice = Orange Juice
Pins out= spins out (as in Cars the movie)
Cary = Scary

Pahtah= porter (dog) (gabe)
cofcof= washcloth (audrey)
oor = your (audrey)

adordable=adorable = just how i said the word at 2-3
My nephew used to always say:

Goke = milk
Dough = banana
Dough dough = Dip (as in ketchup)

F#ck E you = cockadoodle doo
There used to be a lot more, but he doesnt mispronounce things as often anymore, I miss it =(
dump bag=duche bag
hangaber=hamburger
cheech other=eachother
Now My= "now i" as in "now my no my" ABC's
washclother - washcloth
Any word that starts with an S and then is followed by a consonant, the S gets dropped.

Cool - School
Ute - Luke
Sauce - Socks, or actually Sauce
He's getting so much clearer, but he still says a few:
The only Easter Bunny I can get behind.
Maxwell Joseph 4/09 Lucy Violet 10/12
Pretty much every word Ella knows is mispronounced right now!
My favorites are:
pita- pizza
ha wi- hawaii
nanny- granny
la di- laundry
mo- elmo or more
These are awesome!
Lila's pronunciation has gotten a LOT better in the last couple months, so their aren't nearly as many as there used to be. That said, I'm sure there are more that should be on this list, but this is all I can think of right now:
dammit = diamond
apapus = octopus
c@ck doodoo = cockadoodledoo
bahbum = bottom
sahbooy = strawberry
so citing = so exciting
nana = banana and/or Leana
One of my favorite things ever was when she first learned to say shoes she always said "sh-shooooooes". So damn cute. I miss it.

I just blogged about this! Max used to say "Saw-babies" for strawberries, but now he says it pretty close to correctly. Some remaining mispronounciations:
Oh-mut=oatmeal
taf-ooh=thank you
Lots more but those are the ones that come to mind.
lately he's been been double-pluralizing..."Shapes-es, books-es" etc. So cute! His syntax cracks me up too: "Max hold Mama" when he wants me to hold him.
Hog dog: hot dog
Yehyoh: yellow
Sider: spider
I'm sure there are others but I can't think of them. We love when she mispronounces stuff, it's so cute.. I almost don't want to correct her but at some point it will probably go from adorable to unfortunate.
Isa says "Hold you??" when she wants to be held. SO cute.
Max says that too! Or "Help you" or "Your Daddy" to refer to DH. Ah, so cute!
Lila says "heps you" when she wants help.
The whole "you" and "me" thing is a really difficult thing to teach.
I thought of a couple more - she says poky dots (polka dots) and upsy down (upside down). I'm going to be really sad when she starts saying them right.
She's also starting to understand tenses and knows to add the -ed at the end to mean it already happened. So after nap time every day she tells me that she "wake upped".
