I Guess They Don't Speak Ellie


Ellie (to the horses): Here horsey!! Here horsey!!
Ellie (to my Mom after the horses don't come): I guess they don't speak Ellie.

~~~~~
Ellie talks really well but here are a few words she has trouble with:
lellow = yellow
hunkleberry = huckleberry
maundry = laundry
Lost Biggest = Las Vegas

~~~~~

Ellie: I don't want to go to bed.
Me: Hey Ellie, did you know that when you're mommy and daddy's age you'll be excited to go to bed? You'll want to go to bed.
Ellie: Yeah but the thing is, I'm not your age so I don't want to go to bed.

~~~~~

Topics of some bad dreams she has had lately:
Porcupine in Daddy's truck
A not-exercising snowman
A doctor blob

~~~~~

Playing with Tinker Toys
Ellie (to my mom): Can you make me a flow? [rhymes with cow]
Mom: A flow? You mean p-p-plow?
Ellie: Okay, you can make me a plow.

~~~~~

Ellie: Mom, what are you vacuum-upping?

~~~~~

Me: Peeling these potatoes drives me nuts.
Ellie: It drives me nuts!
Ellie: And it drives me squirrels too!

~~~~~

Ellie: Oh! Here's my sunglasses...I mean, my rockin' star glasses.
Me: Rockin' star glasses?
Ellie: Yeah, they're for rockin'.

~~~~~

Ellie (to Rob's mom): Is it warm outside?
Rob's mom: Oh, it's about 57 out there.
Ellie: No, it's eighty-twenty...what does eighty-twenty mean?

I love it! She is so smart and is at that age that her brain starts making connections, correct or incorrect. So cute!!!!

So so cute! I think Kajsa and Ellie would have so much fun together!
We aren't moving to Idaho. Sounds fun, but the job is in Utah! It will be fun to see you and your cute family this summer!

This is so cute, and what I love most is that I can now picture her saying all of these things and how she would say it after being able to spend some time with her. She is such a love.
