This post will need some follow-ups as I think of more things, but for starters:
Eleanor: "blana" = banana. And for some reason, she says AP-ricot (with a short-a sound) rather than APE-ricot, like I do. Where did she get that? For that matter, I dislike apricots; where did she get this obsession?
Miles and vocab: "Dreary" as in "Mommy, don't you think this room is kind of dreary?" He had no idea what it meant, though; thought it was like "hot". And of course, "Mommy, it's kind of dim in here. Can I turn the light on?"
Eleanor: "Where's my Miles?" "Mommy, we go get my Miles now?" (On the occasion of Miles' first slumber party - I thought she'd enjoy the personal attention/Mommy time, but she was too distressed that her best friend was not present at bedtime or breakfast.)
Eleanor, crying: "I soccer too! I soccer too! No soccer for Miles!" (When Miles left for soccer class. She doesn't know what soccer is; she DOES, however, know what a SUCKER is (aka lollipop) and apparently was miffed she didn't get one.)
Miles: "Mommy, I think I will have a dream about when I will be a REAL ballerina." (I checked out "Angelina Ballerina" from the library for Eleanor. But just like Fancy Nancy and Olivia, Miles sort of appropriated this one for himself, too.)

Lots of good fodder for embarrassing toasts at wedding rehearsal dinners....
