I Always want to remember

some of the hilarious things that Anders is coming up with lately. And not just the funny ones but the sweet ones too.

"Somebody" who shall remain nameless let one rip in front of Anders the other day. Anders said "excuse you." Promptly went up and grabbed "somebody's" hand and said, "lay down, I change your bum."

Cam: Anders what is this? (marker all over the fridge and cupboards)
Anders: "I drawed it."
Cam: What did dad tell you about the markers?
Anders: "only on paper"
Cam: Is this paper?
Anders: "no"
Cam: Then why did you do it?
Anders (throwing his hands in the air): "but, I drawed it!"

Grandma Great was in the kitchen washing dishes. Anders came into the room and grabbed her hand and said, "duck stuck grandma". She walked into the living room and the tv was frozen with a picture of a duck on it.

Anders will often be playing with his toys, stop and say to himself: "hmmm, what do now?"

I walked into his room the other day and he was standing inbetween his time out chair and book shelf (a very narrow space). When I walked in he pointed his finger out the door and yelled, "NO, go in there." He was messing his diaper and wanted to do it in private.

Anders tells me "I love this song" when he hears his favorite songs in the car.

He ALWAYS wants me to kiss it better, and I'm pretty sure that he even fakes owies sometimes just so that I can kiss it better. And after I do, he either says "all better" or "thanks momma."

Whenever Anders lets one rip I say "did you step on a duck?" He usually tells me "uh-huh." The other day he let one rip in front of Cam and said "dad, I squashed a duck!"

Anders squoze a squirting toy full of water in the tub the other day and said, "look mama, I made a rainbow."

He's starting to have conversations with his toys and I wish that he wouldn't pay attention when I whip out the video camera but of course he stops. One of my favorite things is to watch him play when he doesn't think that I'm looking.

Anders always wants family hugs. And sits and says (during the hugs) I love it! I love my family! I love family hugs! It brings tears to my eyes every time!

He puts on his watch and comes up to me and says "momma, what time is it?" I told him it was 7:30. He turned around and started walking away, looked back, pointed at me and said, "momma, you so smart".

This is definitely one of the best times of my life!
