This was our conversation this morning...

Me: Would you like to eat some waffle for breakfast?
Elise: Apple!
Me: We don't have apples. We have waffles. This is a waffle. Would you like some?
Elise: Apple! Apple! Apple!
Me: This is a waffle. WAAAAAH-FULLLLL.
Elise: Apple?
Me: WAAAAAH-FULLLL. Look at Mommy's mouth. Can you say WAAAAAAH-FULLLLL?
Elise: AAAAAAAAAH-PPLE. Apple! Apple!

Oh well. :)
