"Sera-kee-tops"
Alex's nursery is in dino theme. One of his favorite films is an installment of The Land Before Time. We get him all sorts of dino themed toys, books and activities. We do a lot of dino chat. While playing with his dinosaur cut-out figures, he was amazing me by matching up the cut-outs with their images on the back of the box. Like I usually do, I took out the species represented in the film he calls "Flap, Flap", (the Land Before Time movie we have.)
Me: "Look this looks like Little Foot."
Him: "L'ilfoot"
Him: (grabbing pterodactyl) Petrie!!!! (character's name)
Me: And this is...
Him: "Sera-kee-tops!"
"Sera", a character from the film, is a Triceratops. He must have remembered the name of the species from the previous times I've gone over them.
That's my mommy brag. He's trying to say "triceratops". Sorry for the shamelessness of it all. This one just blew me away.
