Zoe's favourite phrase these days is "a bit more, Mommy"
A bit more bagel mommy
A bit more chicken mommy
A bit more nummies mommy
Tiny bit nummies mommy?
A bit more wa-wee mommy
How do you ask?
PEEEEEEEEZ!
A bit more lip gloss mommy
This is usually followed by a kiss from me
And then another "A little bit more Mommy"
And more kisses
And so on
She is also partial to "You're Welcome" which she uses in place of 'Thankyou' due to an unfortunate misunderstanding early on in the manners learning curve. You see, she started saying 'Thankyou' so promptly and correctly that I found myself automatically saying 'You're welcome' - which she took as me correcting her. Ever eager to please, she had 'corrected' herself within a day. It's been weeks now and I can't seem to get her back to saying 'thankyou.' We often find ourselves in good-natured mini verbal battles;
"You're Welcome"
No, you're welcome Zoe
No, you're welcome Mommy
No, you're welcome
No, you're welcome
And so on...
