Nana – “You musta broke it.”
Evie – “No I didn’t!”
Nana – “Musta been the cats.”
Evie – “….Again?”

Dad – “Did you mess with the remote?”
Evie – “Oh, no, Dad, I didn’t”.
Dad – “Oh, well…then it musta been the cats!”
Evie – “Yeah….hmmm, those darn cats!”
Bad Dreams
This morning, Evie told me she had a bad dream. I asked her what the bad dream was about. She softly started talking about how she was sitting in her snack chair eating a chocolate chip cookie. I interupted and said ‘You had a bad dream about a chocolate chip cookie?” She replied:
“No. I had a bad dream Dad ATE my chocolate chip cookie!”

My Jammie Ties
Evie – “They look like carrots!”
Nana – “What! Whatever makes you think those look like carrots?”
Evie – “Um, myself?!?”
No Clothes
Nana: – “You got no clothes on! Why’d you take your jammies off?”
Evie – “I need to let my belly air out!”
Spending Fun
Evie – “Hi, Nana. I just came in to spend some fun with you!”
When She Tried To Get Her Doll To Stand Beside Her
Evie – “She’s not much of a walker”.
iPads Are Better
Upon opening my new (cheap) tablet, Evie says:
“Hey, it’s just like the one my Grandma has.”
I say “Oh, yeah, your Grandma has one of these?” Her reply, with an Oh poor Nana, look on her face, is:
“Actually, hers is an iPad….it’s a better one!”
Farmer
Nana – “What did the farmier say when he lost his tractor?”
Evie –
