“My mama, I t’inks ‘da baths water is lucky.”
“Well, I suppose if the bath water is yucky, you shouldn’t drink it anymore.”
“Hmmm….Lets me try again.” (long slurp of bath water from a fish cup)
“Sigh. That is my least favorite of your habits.”
“I’s a sea horshie mama. Look ‘a me! Candon ball!! SPLASH! …Oh. I forgots. Da bath water not lucky to I, Eli. It’s gigishious.
“It’s time to take your delicious bath water out of the tub.”
“No t’anks. Be’tause I’s a fish.”


Oh my gosh. Can you take a video of him next time? I’d really like to hear him talk. Looks like he knows French!
I do need to take more videos of him talking. His pronunciations are so fun
) I do have one video on http://www.facebook.com/mamacravings
It’s an interview of him from a few days ago.
He doesn’t know French…that I’m aware. But I wouldn’t put it past that little stinker. If he hears a word, he picks it up (which is sometimes great and sometimes not so great. Lol)
His abuelo and abuelita do speak to him in mostly Spanish. He soaks it up.
Ohmygosh. I’m cracking up. He’s truly precious!
Thank you so much!
Ohmygosh. I’m cracking up. He’s truly precious! And his favourite colour is PINK!
Love it. Come here and I’ll give some love and a few squeeze Eli!
Thank you so much! He is such a mess!
Pink was a surprise to me, but I’m all for it
Eli says, “T’anks” for the squeezes
He is sooo fun! Do all kids love drinking soapy water?
Lol! I suppose they do. I guess soapy bath water can’t hurt them too badly, if they all drink it.
