Ella and I are watching Tangled for the millionth time. It makes my girl so happy that I don't mind a bit.

Ella loves to sing. She sounds like Tom Petty, sliding into most of her notes. And what she doesn't have in pitch, tune or melody, she makes up for with enthusiasm.

Ella was trying to explain where she wanted to go to lunch. She kept telling us, "They have 'O's' and an 'H' there. You know... where the owls live!" She was talking about Hooters. (For the record, we've never been there. I suspect she just likes the idea of an owl restaurant.)

Ella will NOT give up the request for a new baby. "Momma, the truth is that *I* can take care of the baby. I'm good at feeding the baby and rocking the baby and giving the baby a rattle." When asked what she would do about the dirty diapers? "Well, Momma, you can take there of those."

Ella is chasing our dog, Charlie, through the house, yelling, "Charlie, don't run away from my LOVE!" Oy.

Ella and I were playing tea party/brunch. I asked her what special ingredient she used to make everything taste so delicious. Her answer? Fiber. *snort*

Just overheard Ella say, "Cole, would you please open this, as if by magic?" *snort*

Ella just asked if "we" could have a baby. Ummm... no, Ella. "We" will not be having another baby. *shutter at the thought* Four is quite enough, thankyouverymuch.

Since Ella cannot have the baby that she wants, she's decided to have an imaginary baby called "Daddy baby"... you know... because he's her Dad went he was a baby. Duh. I'm getting lots of commentary about it. "Look, Momma! Daddy baby is crawling! Look, now he's eating peanut butters! Look, he just pooped his pants. You better get on that." *snort*

Ella: "Licking a rash is never a good idea." She should know.

We stopped at McD's on the turnpike so Ella could use the facilities. She decided to serenade all the elderly ladies that were fawning all over her. LOVE IT.

Ella has officially given up on napping... FOREVER. This development officially makes me want to say lots of naughty words. :/
