Just had to share my toddler's hilarious mispronunciation

My two-year-old just inherited a shirt with a monkey on it from one of her cousins. She's in this phase where she narrates everything she does and sees and wears, so over and over again, she kept saying, "Monkey shirt!" Except she needs to work on enunciating the "r"... I about died laughing while she was repeatedly announcing it to everyone she saw at Target!

Nb: edited for grammar

    Hahahah omgosh, that is hilariously cute. My friend's niece loves dogs, so my friend got her a stuffed Yorkshire Terrier doggy that she wanted. Well, you should hear her trying to say Yorkshire Terrier...comes out more like "YorkSHAT Tare-yer." hahhahaha

    My DD is 2.5 and last night we were driving and she kept saying she wanted to go "f***ing!" It took a while but finally we realized she wanted to go walking

    My son pronounces "banana" "bleleblbe." I can't even spell it; it's much easier to say. I just find it funny that he has this huge made-up word instead of just saying "nana."

    Interestingly, MIL goes by Nana, and he can say that, and sometimes will call the yellow fruit a nana, too, but then he'll "correct" himself and say the original word.

    DS also calls bread "bra," though he also uses the correct term to describe what I wear to cover my boobs.

    DD is now 4, but when she was around 2, she loved fire trucks, and would loudly and excitedly announce whenever she saw/heard one that there was a "fire cock".  I seriously about died haha

    I knew a little boy that would say fire f*ck!

    My little cousin said "triref*ck" for the longest time. He also loved fire trucks and would yell it as loudly as possible whenever he saw one...

    There was a kindergartner at the last school I was at who couldn't say the "ch" sound. He was talking about a chuckie doll one day, but it came out "f*ckie." His teacher and I both freaked when we heard it, then realized what he meant.

    My niece, who is now 5, has called me Llama since she was 2. She couldn't pronounce Lana or Alana so we just went with it. Her brother now calls me that too (age 3).

    My 2yo used to say "oatmo" for oatmeal until she was almost 18mos. She currently says "braf-froom" for bathroom, "boo-dee" for body, and "nickels" for nipples.

    My 2-year old asked me to change his "shits" this morning. I do usually change his sheets on Saturdays.

    He also asks to put coins in his "beat" (bank), and likes to watch me crotch-it (cross stitch).

    My cousin could not say Wendy when he was little so he named me WeeWee. Funniest part was when he would get upset, he would cry I want my WeeWee. I'm still Wee Wee to all the new ones now

    My niece can't say my name quite right so Courtney is something like Corky. Makes me smile!
    My brother had serious pronunciation problems as a kiddo and my favorites (and most innocent ones) were "fark" for shark and "budder" for better. So imagine a 4 yo singing like Eddie Vedder and can't find a "budder man" lol

    When my brother was little he couldn't pronounce iron and called it an I-run it was so funny and adorable! He said it like that for years! He also did the typical mispronunciation of yellow to lell-low
    My sisters nephew can't say Lauren and her name has somehow gotten changed to golly-gol or golly-guy and he came into the pharmacy where he works yelling it and searching for her, a random man thought he was saying hi to him an received a weird look in return from the 2 year old. My sis had to explain that he meant her and was not actually being friendly to him! She felt bad bc the man seemed disappointed!

    My son asked for a "f*ck" to eat his breakfast with the other day. Usually, he eats bananas with his hands, so it didn't occur to me to offer a fork . . .

    Oh my gosh, I don't know how I'm just seeing this. Just what I needed today. @MommyPhoenix my niece did the same thing. As the flower girl at our wedding.

    It was outside in a garden and there happened to be a pond right beside the spot where we were getting married. The pond had frogs that she had visited with Grandpa earlier, and was very enamored with. The whole time I was putting on my dress, she was walking around, two years old in a gorgeous silk dress matching mine, cute brocade slippers, and pearls excitedly exclaiming f*ck, f*ck, f*ck! Fortunately, she was and is even more adoring of my husband, and so instead of pointing at the pond during the ceremony looking for f*cks, she was excited enough to see him in front that she pointed and excitedly repeated his name instead, as though she was positively shocked to see him there. 

    After having walked down the middle of the chairs viciously throwing chunks of petals at the ground with her head held proud and high, everyone thought it was adorable. My MIL about had a conniption when she found out what the alternative had nearly been, which made it even better for me. Baby after my own heart. She just loves being herself and doesn't even care.
