A Lesson in Connor-ese and Riley-ese

Mooulk = Any liquid that can be consumed from a sippy cup (milk, juice, water)

Mooulk-coke = Daddy's Coke Zero

Wheat'ns = Wheat Thins (one of our favorite snacks)

The happy truck = The ice cream truck, but please don't let the Con-man in on the secret. We are more than happy to let him believe that there's just a van that goes around the subdivision playing music to make us all happy.

The Bug-Man Truck = the mosquito sprayer

We [heart] Bug man.

And thank God our kids think the ice cream truck is a music van.

We convinced Eva that the truck was just a happy music truck for about 3 years. Unfortunately, when she caught on, it means Eli could not have the same ignorance for all those years. It was the same with catalogs. I told her they were magazines. She figured out (again, around 3) you could buy the stuff in them and let Eli in on it and he lugged around the Toys R Us Wish Book all Christmas Season.
