Evie – “Dinner’s ready, Nana.”
Nana – “No it’s not!?”
Evie – “Well, could you just come so I don’t have to call you later?”
This started as stuff Evie has said that I've remembered to write down. If only I had started sooner. I've missed things like "I almost agot", "Mmmmm, goot", "Farshfellows are yummy, yummy, yummy", "All the people", "Hubba, Hubba, Hubba", "Baa Baa Boo", "Cowabunga, Dude!", "A Lion Guard Bliund Bag", "I do it", "Oh, yaaaah", "I'm a Haidband Haid", "Dey Cazzy". As of 2017, we've added stuff Andy says, too. I sometimes forget to post it before I've forgotten what they said or did so this is by no means all the funny things that have happened. And you also don't get to see the looks on their faces, the tone of voice they used or the hand gestures that go along with it. I wish I'd had something like this for my kids!
Evie – “Dinner’s ready, Nana.”
Nana – “No it’s not!?”
Evie – “Well, could you just come so I don’t have to call you later?”
Evie – “I can do anything!”
Nana – “That’s right. It might take some practice but you can do anything if you try.
Evie – “I can already do some of the things I can’t!”
Evie – “You were his Mom.”
Dad – “What is she now, then, if she’s not my Mom still.”
Evie, after a couple moments of thought – “Old Mom?”
Mama told me the following story.
“The cats were fighting. Evie walked up to them and said ‘Hey, guys, haven’t we talked about this? This is unprofessional retirement!'”
Having my lunch and she asked me what it was and could she see it. I told her it was Hamburger Hash and it was really good with lots of good stuff in it. I tipped up my bowl, she took one look at it and said:
“My tummy doesn’t relate to that yet!”
Nana – “Did you get your bath last night?”
Evie – “Yeah, I got my hair dried.”
Nana – “Oh, yeah. How’d that feel? Nice and warm I bet.”
Evie – “It’s not so bad”
Evie tried the cake and said she liked it. We then got into a discussion of trying new things. She talked about how her tastes had changed and said:
“My taste buds are related to watermelon!” ?!?!
Everyone cracked up and Mama made the ‘Who knew’ comment. To which Evie replies:
“Only me!”
Waved my hand under my nose to let Dad know the litter box wasn’t smelling so good. Evie waved her hand under her nose and said:
“P-U-sicle.”
We laughed and Dad told me “She randomly says stuff like that now and says ‘We should tell Nana to put that one on the blog!'”
Evie – “Everyone notice where we parked!”
Evie – “Look, Nana. A tower! I’m very impressive at it.”
