Breakfast

This morning, right after getting up, Eleanor mumbled that she was hungry.  Granddad asked her what she wanted and she told him "I'm only talking to Mommy."  After chiding her, I asked her what she wanted.  She waited a minute and told me she wanted a Blue Bell Popsicle.  I told her no way, to which she replied "I'm only talking to Granddad!"

Eleanor Sayings and Doings

Yesterday Eleanor had a small accident in her panties.  She's been taking herself to the bathroom for a few weeks now, so I didn't know until I went to see what she was doing in her room.  She told me about her accident and I asked her where her panties were.  She giggled and told me "They're invisible!"  She had hidden them in a basket!

Just now she found the pencil she put in the refrigerator yesterday.

Last night Eleanor was standing in the middle on her room with her blanket over her head. She was being invisible. She stood there for a minute before my dad gently touched her foot. She jumped and the blanket fell off. Later she told me "Granddad touched my foot and my heart was bumping!"


At dinner last night she informed me that when I was little I liked to dress up as a picture frame.  The best part is the way she pronounces picture, with a drawn out emphasis on the ict.
