Pretty amazing!

Van jumped backwards on his bed and his head smashed into my knee.

Van: "Are you ok mom? Does it hurt?"
Me: "Yeah it hurts a little."
(he gives my knee a smooch)
Me: "How is your head, does it hurt?"
Van: "Yeah it hurts pretty bad. I think I broke my fossil."
Me: "You broke your fossil?"
Van: "Yeah I broke my bone."

adorable.

After Van is not listening about something or another.

Me: "VAN COME HERE NOW!"
(he comes)
Van: "Are you happy now mom?"
Me: "Yes"
Van: "If you're happy then why don't you have a smile on your face?"
I smile
Van: "Good job!"

Also when I'm mad now he says, "take it easy, take a break. take it easy, just take a break."

Owl hat

Esther in the owl hat my friend Karri made for her.
Love those cheeks!

"My tummy hurts. Maybe the hambooger is inside my tummy kicking the walls? Maybe that's why it hurts."

- Van with an upset stomach, after eating 1 bite of hamburger.

Catch phrases

Muhammed Ali said about boxing,
"Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee"

Lightening McQueen from the movie 'Cars' says about car racing,
"Float like a cadillac, sting like a beamer"

And Van says (as if he's talking to a cadillac),
"Cadillac, sting like a beaver!"
