The Most Smartest OR I'm in So much trouble

This is my little Elise Violet. She was mad at me for some time because we moved her out of her apartment, and moved her into a house. She was very mad at me for weeks until I finished painting her room, and moved her into it. Then we went on a trip to Oklahoma to stay in homes she wasn't familiar with. She was much happier with me after she had a place of her VERY own, and I haven't made her stay over night any place but her own bed. We have a set of stairs...that was the first thing I showed her when she came to the home. We went up the stairs, I let her crawl up and down the hallway, and then I turned her around and we slid backwards down the stairs. she safely learned the stairs in 1 day. I was so proud...what a good mommy I am to so effectively teach my daughter how to use the few stairs safely
I few months ago my daughter got hair. It came in quick, and it came in THICK. I would take two combs to pull her hair into piggy tails. One for me and one for her to play with. One day she took her comb and started rubbing it in her hair while i was trying to comb it. She was COMBING HER HAIR. Not only was it STINKIN' CUTE to watch but it was so sweet! She might be a hairdresser some day TOO! What a good mommy I am, teaching my daughter how to comb her hair.
Yesterday I had two things happen and something pretty big. Yesterday I realized that my daughter was saying FISHES when she brings me a bag of Goldfish Crackers. I thought that she was saying SHHHHH like "ssshhhhhh be quiet". The Sh-sh's that she is saying over and over again is her fish crackers. She ASL signs "eat" when she is hungry along with "Sh-sh's" She has been saying it for days and I wasn't catching on. What an okay mommy I am...I still know my Girlie is hungry but I didn't know she wanted Goldfishes.
Elise, like most waddlers(she is just learning to walk so she waddles not toddling yet) she gets into things. I was in the kitchen while she was wondering around the living room. She got stuck between the Brown Chair an the wall she moaned "Oooohhhhh moooommmmm. OH mooooommmmm". I should know that means by now. That is the "something is terribly wrong, and help me" moan. She has been saying it for months. I finished the few dishes I had left and came to find her. When she saw me she started to cry. She had to have been stuck for at least 5 minutes. I know that is what she does when she is in trouble. What a mean mommy I am to not be paying attention to her moaning for help. I beginning to think my Girlie was a bit more observant and a little bit smarter then me at this point, and beginning to realize that mommy is an airhead.
At nap time today I told Elise to go to her room and she made a mad dash up stairs to her room. We got up stairs , and realized Elephant(Her Pink Elephant Rattle stuffed toy who is her best friend) was missing. We had gone to down town to the Library, to Costco and to Walmart... Where in the world did it go. I Searched my bedroom...Elise in toe. I went out to the car to see if by chance she smuggled Elephant out. I searched high and low for the places that Elephant could be. Elise was yelling something at me, to which I responded "Elise, Elephant is missing we need to find him." she went down the hall to the stairs while I went to look again in my bedroom. I yelled at her to come up to her room and get ready for a nap. I walked out of my room to look for her, and heard the rattle of her Elephant. She had hid Elephant in Daddies suit case in the living room. Once I told my 15 month old that her buddy was missing she knew where to find him. I picked her up amazed that she remembered where she had last left him and thought "She is brilliant, what a terrible thing that your 15 month old is smarter then you, and that if she is this smart now, she is going to surpass you in smarts when she is 2! Oh man, you are in SO MUCH TROUBLE".
