Phrases We Have to Remember

As the girls experiment more and more with grammar we find ourselves constantly laughing and in awe over their phrases. While we can't remember them all, I need to document a few of them so that we can at least remember some. 

When she has to go potty (and is likely going potty in her pants--especially in the car seat), Lia says, "wait the potty, wait the potty, wait the potty." As fast as she can. 
"ZZ Turn." - Zadie's favorite phrase when she thinks she has waited long enough for her turn (zero wait time at all).
"Lia turn." - Lia's counter to "ZZ Turn."
"Toot toot" (laugh) - Everytime they pass gas. 
"Mama's water." -What Lia says when she sees Starbucks. Oops!
"Mama hot coffee." - both girls like to call any drink "hot coffee,"
"How about ummm..." - the girls' response when we ask what song we should sing. 
"Eat! Eat!" (While signing for "eat.") mostly Lia's imperative for, "give me good now."
"ZZ's funny." -Both girls like to declare people as funny anytime they make you laugh. 
"One two three!" - Lia counts anytime she wants to jump or be swung. 
"Whoa (names everyone she knows)!" -Zadie does this almost every car ride, and she gets herself going so fast that she starts to repeat names or just list things.
"Lia help." -Lia's version of don't touch me, leave me alone, and let me do this all by myself.
"Pack pack." -backpack (mostly Zadie)
"Hold you." - Zadie's request to be held or carried, clearly learned from "want me to hold you?"
"Roll Gos" -Zadie's term for "roll the gospel chariot along."
"Toto's song!"- Do Re Mi (or any song from Sound of Music)
"Pokey"- the current favorite song, "hokey pokey."
