Elliott teaches his older brothers

Jeremy and Ben have learned from Elliott. They decided not to get dressed today, so we have 3 boys in their undies.

If Elliott were...

…a food, he would be sweet and so spicy it would burn your mouth so bad your taste ids would throb. But it would taste so good that after a couple if days you would order another plateful.

…a Native American, his name would translate to Swirling Wind.

…a new species, he would be classified as Homo trumpernickus (etymology: Yiddish).

Boo Boo Sauce

Rachel made boo boo sauce today. You know, we use it to make boo boo chicken or boo boo ribs. I asked Elliott what it was because he asked me what was in the pot, and he told me.

Watermelon Meatballs

Elliott wanted these, for which we use the melon baller to make them. Mmmmm.

I want some of that! #1

Me: OK, Jeremy, it's time to take your medicine.
Elliott: I want some!!!
Jeremy: No, Elliott, you can't have that.
Me: It's medicine.
Elliott: I have a headache!

New use for Human body discovered

Elliott has discovered a new efficiency in the design of the Human body. Some call it "hair," he calls it "napkin."

I gotta go poo poo

Elliott is walking around buck naked just now saying this. So we are proud, and Lisa takes him to the toilet. I go searching for his diaper, which is on the floor by the vent. As I bend down, I smell it but the diaper is clean. I don't know where it is coming from, so I ask. He says he pooped in the vent. Sure enough, it's down there!!

Hagamer

Elliott is having hagamers and French fries for dinner. With keppitch.

That's not fair!

Elliott is 2 months shy of 3. Before dinner he had a huge cookie in one hand and a cupcake in the other. He was so cute I only took the cupcake away, but he cried, and ran off into the other room saying "that's not fair!"

I want kissahug

Elliott uses this as a delay tactic when going to bed, or just when he wants them.
