the Eleanorisms.
But, that you'd love pictures more! There are some coming. I promise. I'm sitting here, pumping (yep, still pumping - J is exclusively breast (milk) fed, aside from pbj, pizza, peas, bananas, and egg yolks, of course), wishing I had some pictures to upload for you. I've checked facebook about 100 times in the last ten minutes.
But, here is a video to tide you over!

Eleanorism.
"Mommy, take this crap off my eggs."
(Me: Did you just say crap?
E: Yes. Crap. This dirty crap.
Me: Crap? Crap?
E: Yes. This burned crap. These eggs crappy.
Me: Crappy?)

Ladybugs and Bubbles.
Eleanor's imagination has taken off lately! Here are bits of imaginative play she's been engaging in.
1) Having a snack. At any time, Eleanor might be found digging in a pocket, down her shirt, or in the couch cushions. She also can be seen moving her tiny little hands and fingers randomly across a tabletop. What is she doing? Finding or making a snack. Usually, it's corn on the cob, but sometimes chocolate milk, gummies, pbj, lettuce, etc. Then, she doles the snacks out. And, goes around the room and asks each recipient, "Corn good?" "Chocamilk good?" Mmm, chocolate milk from between the couch cushions - just what I wanted. :o)
2) Everything is magic lately. "Magic girl," "magic horse," "magic pooh bear," etc.
3) Sometimes she sings songs about imaginary things. Likes, bees and spiders. For seemingly no reason.
4) She often pretends she is some kind of animal or another. A horse, dinosaur, monster, rabbit.
5) Imaginary boo-boos. Everywhere. She is currently wearing six "tigger pooh band-aids." Although three of those are from actually injuries, but that is whole different post.
6) Her (real, not imaginary) food is always seeming to become an animal as well. Often horses, because they are fun to make gallop around (and neigh). Just today, we were eating noodles that were rotini and shells. The shells immediately became ladybugs (makes sense) and the rotini became bubbles (hmm, not as fitting). Either way, she made them scream in horror as she grinned with delight and "ate them all down."
