Kids Say The Darndest Things - Holiday Edition

It's time for another kids say the darndest things post! Really, at this point, it's more of an "Adelaide says..." post. Eleanor only knows three words - Mama, Dada, and sometimes she busts out a Bu-bye.

Adelaide has been saying, "No nuts!"

and showing off her allergy bracelet. She's 

 getting so good at remembering to check packages 

that she even asks Mom to check the milk in the dairy case. 

Eleanor doesn't say much, but she does DO the darndest things. For example, if you say, "No, Eleanor don't go over there," she will crawl even FASTER to try to get the power cord/trash can/toilet water before you can grab her. And, if you blow kisses to her, she'll make kissy sounds back. She'll also high-five any open palm she can find, repeatedly. She loves to grab noses, dance and wave good bye. One of the best ways to get Eleanor's attention is to call out, "Bye bye!" She'll stop whatever she is doing to happily wave you good-bye, whether you are going anywhere or not. She's a fun baby.

By "No" you really meant "Yes," right?

Now, on to the silly two-year old quotes!

Adelaide: Our car is dirty. Need to get a new one from Jesus.
We did tell her Jesus and Heavenly Father made the world...good connection kiddo.

Adelaide: This TV has football just like our TV!
Staying in Williamsburg for Thanksgiving. Flipped on the TV in our hotel room to find a football game and Adelaide was over-joyed.

Melinda: Tell Daddy what was in your advent calendar this morning.
Adelaide: An Elf-ephant!
Alas, it was just a regular Elf...

Adelaide: Mommy, I have a Christmas song for you.
Melinda: Can you sing it to me?
Adelaide: Happy Birthday to You. Happy Birthday to You. Happy Birthday Dear Jesus! Happy Birthday to You.

Adelaide: Bears hit babies.
We guess this is why she always moves the teddy bears away from Eleanor.

Adelaide: Bring us some piggy pudding, oh bring us some piggy pudding. We won't go until we get some! So bring it right here.
Piggy...figgy...eh...

Adelaide: Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer... (stops singing)... Santa need Rudolph to have a green nose.
Melinda: A green nose?
Adelaide: So he can go.

Adelaide: God put a new star in the sky... and it twinkled.

Adelaide: Can I have some of this?
Runs over and hugs Mommy's leg.

Adelaide: Georgie Porgie... he kissed the girls and they cried. When the boys came out to play - they HIT him and he went to time out.

Adelaide: When I turn two again, I'm going to get more raisins.

Adelaide: Charlie Brown?
Melinda: Yes?
Adelaide: Snoopy's not going to...eat him...?
Melinda: No, Snoopy is his friend. He won't eat him.
Holiday specials can be scary.
