"Moooooooooomyyyyyyyyy" and "Mommy-Lise"

Lately, I have been greeted with "Mooooooooomyyyyyyyyyyyy" coming over the monitor in the morning.  Up until this past week she just used to sit in her crib and talk to her stuffed animals or sing songs until I would go over and get her.  This week she has decided she does not have time for that anymore =).  Instead she just sits there saying a long drawn out "Mommy" until I go over.  I do have to admit that it is the best way to wake up in the morning (also because she still sleeps until 8 =)).
Another thing she has started doing this past week is putting the word "Mommy" in front of things or substituting it altogether for something else.  For example, tonight I was eating popcorn and she asked what it was.  I told her it was popcorn and she said "Oh, it Mommy-Corn" and now she actually calls it Mommy-Corn.  She has done this a bunch of times this week with things but the one other time that stands out to me was the other night.  We were looking in the mirror on the back of the dining room hutch.  She was kind of peeking around stuff and I said "Where's Annalise?".  She said back to me with a smile on her face "I don't know, where Mommy-lise?" =).
