I Love You, Angel

Von loves to spend the day at Grandma Angel's house. One evening when we were leaving he yelled from the car, "I love you, Angel." Then on the way back to Grandma's he was singing about Grandma Angel and his friends.

Helper

Cade was crying on the ride home the other day so I made him a bottle and Von held it for him while I drove the rest of the way home.

Stop Talking

Grandma had told Von to stop talking and eat one day and now Von will tell people to, "Stop Talking" if he does like what you are telling him to do.

Crazy

The other day I told Von that was driving me crazy. The following day Von says to the computer, "That's making me crazy, mom."

Von's favorite words at age 3

The word and phrases Von uses:

I can't

I'm not ready

I love you, too (which he says to you first, not in responds)

I need you

I need to hold you (when he wants you to hold him)

Ever Again

I have been trying to throw away this one cup of Von's that leaks, but it's a baseball water bottle so he loves it. The other day I was cleaning out his kitchen drawer and Von was in the other room so I thought what a perfect time. Of course, before I could get the lid in the garbage he came to see what I was doing. He found the lid in his draw before I did told me, "I need this one." When I tried to tell him it was broken so I throw it out, he went to the garbage and got it and then told me, "Don't ever do that again, ever again." with his finger pointed at me.
