That's right, my baby has learned a new word. She is my constant shadow these days and keeps a running color commentary all day long.

Me: Can you get the hair stuff, please?

Ellie: We gonna go da store, Mommy?

Me: Not today, can you get the hair stuff, please?

Ellie: Oh. Ah morrow? Ah morrow we go da store. We gonna go at da park, Mommy?

Me: It's hot right now, maybe we can go to the park later, can you get the hair stuff, PLEASE?

Ellie: Mom? You you you mad?

Me: No, honey I'm not mad. Let's go do your hair, okay?

Ellie: Oh. Mommy, you just frustrated.
