Elliotisms...

"Keeess, keeeeeeesssssssss"... frequently followed by pointing at whichever part of himself he just bumped. Sometimes used during diaper changes or baths and accompanied with a rolling of his hips so that his butt faces mostly up. Yep. "Kiss my ass!" Cute.

"Eeeeeye" (Jabs finger in own eye) "awwwwwwww" (arms to chest, chin tucked down coyly) "oooooo" (pointing). Love you too, sweetpea!

Elliot: "Moy! Moy!"
Mama/Daddy: "You can have more playdough/crayons/books after you eat your banana/cracker/lunch."
Elliot: (very wet and muffled) "Moy? Moy!!"
Mama/Daddy "Well I didn't mean cram all your food in at once. Oh well, you're done eating now. Yes, we can play."

Elliot: "Waaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"
Mama/Daddy: "It's 4/5/6am. Why are you awake?"
Elliot: (Head tucked down coyly) "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Keeeessss! Milk. DOWN!!"

"Dooka dooka dooka dooka DOOOOOKa." No idea. But he says it a lot. I say it back. We have a great conversation.

Thud/crash/splat
Mama/Daddy: Elliot, why did you throw your food/cup on the floor? Does it go there?
Elliot: "In mouth." (Finger jabs into mouth) " No floor." (Vehement head shake)
Mama/Daddy: "That's right. Not on the floor."
Elliot: "Mess!"
Mama/Daddy: "That's right. What a mess. Is that good or bad?"
Elliot: "Baaaaad."
Mama/Daddy: "And what do you say when you make a mess?"
Elliot: "So-eeeee."
Mama/Daddy: "Thank you for being sorry, Elliot."
Thud/crash/splat
.... and it continues.

"Walk. Walk. Walk Now. NOW. Walk. Now. Walk Now."
"Banana. Now. Now Banana. Banana NOW."

Oh boy!
