Ellie-isms

Here are some more classic Ellie lines from the past few weeks:


Lately I have been talking with Ellie about the difference between boys and girls. Part of our nighttime ritual has been that we talk about all of the people in her life and say whether they are a boy or a girl. One night as I tuck Ellie in she says, "Tell me who is a girl."
I reply, "Why don't you tell me who is a girl?"
Ellie says "No you!"
so I say "Ok, how about I say one, then you say one."
Ellie thinks for a minute. "I'm busy. You go ahead."
"You're busy? What are you busy doing exactly?" to which she replies,
"I'm busy doing lots and lots of stuff. You go ahead and tell me."

While playing, Ellie trips and falls down. Mommy asks if she is ok, to which Ellie replies, "I broke my crown!"

Ellie leans into Luke in his swing and puts her face right up on his saying hi to him repeatedly. Oma tells Ellie to back up a little because he can't see you when you're that close to him. Ellie leans back and looks at Oma, then puts her face back into Luke's face and says, "You can't see me!"

As I am walking with Ellie up the stairs at my parents house to put her down for a nap, I tell her "Opa will get you when you wake up from your nap." to which Ellie replies, "He's a nice guy."

We're flipping through a magazine and Ellie points to a picture of Catherine Zeta Jones on the red carpet and says, "I don't want her to come to our house!" I don't know what she has against her, but I could promise Ellie with all sincerity that rest assured Catherine Zeta Jones will never come to our house.
