Out of the Mouth of Elliott #5

(Current favorite picture of elliott! Hahaha)

I think we are way overdue for another "Out of the mouth of Elliott."

So here it is!

Every morning. "Piper! My big hug you??"

One week after being sick, upon waking up. "Mommy, I have a fever. Mommy, I no have fever! My fever broke!"

Elliott started using "I just" all the time. And it's her way of excusing bad behavior. "I just...choking her, crashing my stroller into mommys feet, punching you", etc.

She has also started using so and but. "So, . . . But, . . ."

After Piper accomplished some small task like sitting up or pooping on the potty. "I'm so proud of you Piper!" 

While I was going to the bathroom,  Elliott walks in and says, "I just checking on you."

This was one of the funniest moments. She knows she's not allowed to climb on the back of the couch and when I saw her up there, I kindly reminded her why she shouldn't climb up there. Because she'll fall. Then she says, "I not fall, I not fall"....the I hear a thump and crying..."I fall!!"  

Elliott has picked up on the times I use the dictation on my phone to text. I heard her one day playing on my phone, pressing the button and saying, "Happy birthday my family period." I just about died!!! I say period to add punctuation and she notices!  

Referring to a pile of books on the floor. "These ones? These are like really fun books."

Me: Pipers toes need to be clipped really bad. "Ohhh, that really stinks!"

Hugging our new vacuum

"...it's so, so...fluffy!"

"I can't...I just driving, I really, really sad." Any excuse to do what she wants.  

To Josh in the morning. "Your hair is crazy! You need a comb!"

Me, while driving: The light is green! What does green mean? 

E: "Green bean!"

Driving on the highway and seeing a baby on a billboard. "That baby climb up the wall!" 

When singing Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam. 

"Jesus wants me for a sun...BEEP!"

There you have it!
