Me: “His name is Jack”
Evie: “Why?”
Me: “I don’t know, why is your name Evie?”
Evie: “You’d have to ask yourself that.”

Don’t you hate when they come back with the stuff you’ve told them before?

::hearing a squealing noise::
“That sure sounds like mommy’s brakes!”

Evie was very grumpy after waking up from her nap. Sara was walking and stubbed her toe.
Evie: “I’m not going to kiss it EVER!”

Evie continues to be suspicious about us eating behind her back (for good reason). The other day we were eating cookies with her in the car, and we told her she could have two cookies.
Evie: “Tomorrow I will have two more cookies.”
Sara: “I don’t know if there will be any left.”
Evie, suspiciously: “Let me see the container!”
We’re not sure if she was checking to see if we had eaten more than our share of two each (we had) or if she was making a mental note of the number of cookies so she could check in the morning. Either way, that girl is food paranoid!
