Ella-isms II

I knew that Ella would some great thoughts about her sister. I knew she'd make us laugh. What I didn't know is how long it would take. You can just see Ella's mind working to process all the fuss and care over Tenley. She's so curious about everything... from diaper changes, umbilical cords, nursing, and pumping. It's all fascinating to her. Here's a few things my funny girl has said.





With urgency: "Mommy! Tenley's leaking! She's leaking! Mommy!"
(Tenley had spit up)


I overheard her tell Tenley today with a loving tone: "Tenley, you obey me or I have to spank you with a spoon! On your heiny." (I'm not sure Ella's heard me say that lovingly.)

"Tenley! Stop crying! Eat your boobie!" (is that appropriate to post on here?)

Ella is very good at reminding me what I should be doing. "Mommy, she's crying pick her up!" "Mommy, you need to pump now?" "Mommy, you change her diaper?" "Mommy, put Tenley in the swing!" Ella's also good at telling me what she should not do to her sister... "I don't feed her fruit snacks!" "Don't color on sister!" "I not poke her anymore!" "Shh! Tenley sleeping! I not wake her up!"
