Autumn: A Ernie go in backpack?

Autumn: Where backpack a kitchen?
Me: Your backpack isn't in the kitchen sweetie. It's in your room.
Autumn: A room?

Autumn runs to her room to see if her backpack is in fact there. I hear some shuffling and a few minutes later she emerges from her room dragging the giant kelty backpack.She brings it all the way to the end of the hallway but cannot get it over the lip of the safety gate into the kitchen.

Me: Ok Autumn, I will help you. Here you go.
Autumn: Dain doo mama.
