Conversations with Amelia

Amelia: buzzes lips
Mommy:  Amelia are you an elephant?
Amelia: No mommy, I no have a trunk.
Mommy: You are right Amelia, you don't have a trunk.  Should we pretend to be an animal?
Amelia: Actually, we not be animals.
Mommy: Oh ok, should we be humans?
Amelia: We not be humman.  Actually we be girafes...
Mommy: But we don't have long long necks.
Amelia:    Why not?
------------------------------------
Amelia:  2 Dogs
Mommy:  Yep, we have 2 dogs right now
Amelia: Best dog
Mommy:  You like one of the dogs best?
Amelia: Yes
Mommy:  Which one do you like best?
Amelia:  Harley
Mommy: What makes you like Harley best?
Amelia: Gramma lub him best.
------------------------------------------
Daddy:  Amelia, are you pretty?
Amelia: No
Daddy:  You're not?
Amelia: No.....I beautiful!

The girls have recently started sharing a room.  Every night as soon as I bring Isabelle in, Amelia insists that she has to go to the bathroom (its usually a 50/50 success - one of her stall tactics). 
As Patrick was putting her to bed Amelia says, "Daddy, I tell Mommy I have to go potty really really bad!"   Ironically, she had fallen asleep before I brought Isabelle in.  (Its been about 4 nights since I wrote this.....and every night she has said the same thing to her daddy!)

(Mommy singing)
Amelia:  Mommy - Mommy - STOOOOOP!
Mommy:  Amelia, why should mommy stop singing?!
Amelia (very exasperated): Mommy you ALWAAAAYS talkin'!
Mommy:  So mommy should stop singing because I'm always talking?
Amelia: Yes.
