On the way to preschool, Ella was trying to convince me that she should wear her new jean jacket for school pictures this afternoon. I (dumbly) protested, explaining that she's going to get hot, that we won't be able to see her pretty dress under that jacket, etc.; but that if she wants to wear it, that's her choice (at least it matches.) She then proceeded to channel Christian Siriano with a bitchy look and said, "Mom, it's all about my fashion. You just don't understand."

Ella is watching The Lawrence Welk show. She is IN LOVE with everything about it. The beautiful singing! The lively band! The man dressed up as an astronaut, tap dancing on the moon! (Yes. Really.)


And now, there is a woman singing Memories in a rose colored glittertastic full length gown. Memories.... light the corners of my miiiiiind.... This show never fails to disappoint or dazzle.

We're in the car, and Ella is singing the same short made up song over and over and over again. Carter asked her to stop. Ella proclaims, "Carter, stop blocking my genius!" Gah. Wish that kid had some confidence.

I accidentally interrupted Ella today. Her very snooty patootie response: "Well, MOTHER, as I was SAYING." Cripes.

Parenting lesson of the day: when Ella says, "What does this button do?" you should panic a little.

On the way home from preschool, Ella was talking about adding and subtracting numbers. She yelled out, "Momma, I LOVE math!" Ummmm... this geektastic mom is JAZZED to have another math nerd in the house! *squeal*
