Wipe my nose and flowers

Elise has had a runny nose all week and she hates it.  As soon as a tiny bit of snot comes out, she starts pointing to her nose and yells "no!" (nose) so that we wipe it.  She is very demanding about it.

Today, we went on a short hike near Griffith Observatory.  All along the hike were tiny yellow flowers and Elise was going CRAZY because she wanted to pick them.  She was yelling, "wer!" for "flor" (flower in spanish).  One of her favorite things to do with her babysitter is to go flower hunting.  They will go on walks in the neighborhood and when she spots a tiny yellow flower in the grass, she will pick it.  So, when she saw thousands of yellow flowers on the hike today, she was just beside herself.  At some point, we let her down and let her pick a few flowers and she was in heaven.

She is starting to say a lot of words we don't understand.  I think they are in Spanish because her babysitter says that she knows how to say a lot Spanish words.  She will say a word like "beee" and make a hand motion but we have no idea what she's saying.  She'll say it a dozen times, getting more frustrated each time, and she is nearly crying at the end because we can't figure out what she's saying.  I have to say, it's pretty hilarious.
