December funnies


today elliott learned states at school.  at home he said, “I know a land.  Nana lives in Georgia.  It’s far away, over an ocean. We went on a boat, remember that?  I have a friend named Georgia too”.

Owen update : he is 4.5 months old and he is sitting up with a lot less assistance, likes to look at things and play with things more, really enjoys conversations and listening to people talking...he will start laughing if two adults are talking nearby and are laughing.  He likes looking at other babies and smiles at them alot.  Tonight Elliott was laughing and jumping on the bed by him and Owen was cackling and laughing at Elliott

After accidentally hitting E with the car door and apologizing, he says, "it's OK, accidents happen. I accept your apology but not your behavior". ðŸ˜‚ He H


On the way 



He was very loving and said he didn't want me to apologize.  He also told me I was his favorite and that he wanted to give me a hug today at different points throughout the day.

On the way to Jared's work Halloween event, we stop at a red light and there are tall electric tower structures in front of us.  Elliott says, "That's the Eiffel Tower.  We are in Paris!"  He says he learned about this on the "lion show" which I think must have been Madagascar II that he had watched earlier today?

He notices the leaves changing color for fall, and he says that the leaves change and fall off because they don't have chlorophyll.  He also said that the pointy leaves are maple leaves and sometimes people and animals can "chomp" on leaves and those leaves are called teeth leaves ("teef weaves").  I'm not sure what that part was about; possibly his teacher had been explaining that the points or fuzzy serrations on the edges of certain leaves are called "teeth", or maybe they had just been talking about how some animals can eat certain leaves and he made up the term Teeth Leaves.
