Boul...

So yesterday my Mom, my Aunt, Dan and I are sitting around my Mom's kitchen table talking to Nedy. She's so much fun to chat with these days--its always such a treat to see what comes out of her mouth. We like to test her on words, too. We're always amazed by her ability to hear words once--even big words--and then use them later in perfect context. Well, usually.

So back to yesterday. Ahem. :)

Nedy's been learning the different words for types of roadways. For some reason, she finds it interesting to organize roads by type: avenue, street, road, freeway, highway, etc. Earlier in the week Nedy and Baba were on a bike ride and she learned a new kind of road type: boulevard. And Dan was telling us about this as we sat around the table.

Baba: Nedy, what's that kind of road that has grass or gardens dividing it?
Nedy: Ummmm...hmmmm...ummmmmmmm...
Mama: Boul...
Nedy: BOULSHIT!

Good times. (And, for the record, I have no idea where she learned that particular 'big word'.)
