Best Friends

We're sitting here watching Von show Kilian (our dog) a video of himself on Steve's ipod. How cute is that. He loves his dog.

I'll Get You

Watch out or Von will stick you with stickers. He loves to put stickers on and then pill them off. He put them all on Grandpa and then needed to take some back for his own shirt.

The Mad Hatter

Von would wear this hat around the hotel but he couldn't see very well in it so he would run into the walls. We thought it was funny watching him bump into everything.

I Can Do It

Von can blow his nose all by himself.

Hello

Von just had to say hi to all the little elephant bee's from Whinny the Poop's ride, even the one at the very top. Of course he thought he was going to climb up there all by himself, but I helped him in the end.

Again!

Von's Great, Great Uncle Keith would take Von's arm and do a trick on it while whistling. Von thought it was so funny. He would laugh and laugh then stick his arm up for Uncle Keith to do it again.

Candy Apples

Von and I were sharing a caramel apple, or trying to share. Von didn't want to share and when I would ask for a bite he would look at me and say "No". When he finally decided to share he started pulling the apple back as soon as I went to take a bite.

Dance Off

Von has a stuff monkey that hold his ipod. The music comes out of the monkey's headphones. Von will carry it around the house dancing.

I'm A Frog

Von has learned how to jump and now jumps on everything.

Tech Guy

This weekend at Grandma and Grandpa's house Von was found in the office at the computer typing away and using the mouse. He learns these things from his dad.

Watch Out

Von got one of Steve's old watches and was wearing it around the house. However, since it is too big he must hold his arm up to keep it from falling. He was very proud of it though.

Back Seat Driver

When Steve and Von are on the road together Steve will remove the front seat head rest so Von can see out the front window as they drive. Von loves it. He gets very excited when Steve first removes the head rest.

Buzz

Von got his first bee sting yesterday on his finger. Of course, I freaked out not knowing if he is allergic to bees yet or not. But he was fine. He came over to me crying and brought me to the bee to show me what hurt him. A movie and a snack made everything feel better.

Instrumental Uh Oh!

So Von and I are driving back from work tonight. I've got my iPhone on shuffle and a song from the soundtrack to Sweeney Todd comes on. The song progresses to a spot were there is about 15 bars of "cautioning" strings. You know, like when you know something is going to happen solely because of the feeling you get from the music. Well about 6 bars pass and then I hear "uh oh" from the back seat. I look back and Von is "uh oh"ing the music.

Semi

Von enjoys watching the big trucks at construction sites. He also yells "WOW" whenever a semi drives by us.

I Can Do It

Von put his hat on all by himself today.

Here Kitty, Kitty

Von loves cats and would have one if mom and dad allowed (which they don't). So when he was at the state fair he picked out a stuffed animal cat. He loves this cat. Likes to have it sit with him when he watched a movie.

Cat Got Your Tongue

Von and Uncle Mike like to sit and stick their tongues out at each other over the web cam. Mike and Steve chat so much over web cam that Von knows when he sees the screen come up it's Uncle Mike and he gets all excited.

Back Yard Driving

Von and I went to the local park today for some Labor Day Festivities. When we got back we played in the back yard for a while. Von decided to take his car for a drive.
