Hairstyles by Jamie

Occasionally when Ellie is taking her bath, Jamie or I will style her hair in different ways to create funny looks. Ellie thinks this is hilarious and we get lots of laughs from her. The other night, Jamie gave Ellie a "shamhawk" which topped her list of the funniest ever hairstyles. It was very difficult to get this picture b/c of her hair being longer now, but a little team effort & we snapped it. Ellie looks a little crazed in the top picture - I think she was concentrating very hard to keep her hairstyle. The bottom pic is after it fell ... Nice comb-over, huh?
Some of you may have heard that we never know what Ellie is going to say or how exactly she will say it. I call them "Ellie-isms" and they are quite funny. Tonight, after her bath I was putting lotion on her. This is the conversation:

Ellie: "I'm going to smell good as a chicken!"
Me: "Really? I didn't know chickens smelled good unless they were cooking."
Ellie: "Well, I'm going to smell as good as fried chicken!"

And, no we were not using any chicken flavored lotion.
Other famous "Ellie-isms" include:
"I'm sweatin' like a beaver!" and "That scared the chicken out of me!"
