Friday E was playing with her balloons and said, "I need to get my steppengingis." Turned out that meant our hot pink yardstick, with which she proceeded to spank the balloons.

Also on Friday, at lunch when we were debriefing dance class, and exchanged our "I'm proud of you" lines (see previous post) a couple times, E said, "Mommy, let's play a prouding game." Turns out, the prouding game is simply taking turns saying we're proud of each other and hugging.
