On Big Wild Animals

After showing Shawners the picture below: That's what I want to have. To have a big wild animal hug me.

Too much

On the Smarts

Shawners, as Daddy is wrapping up his cast in a plastic bag complete with a double wrap and ace bandage around his cast to make sure absolutely no water gets in while he takes a shower: You got the smart brain, young one.

On Record Breaking Sky Dives

After watching this video:



Shawners, after asking if his stomach would rip through his body and his arms would come off while watching the video, then watching the skydiver land, says, "Imagine if you were him. I'd vomit three times after I landed."

On Mommy's Outfits

Shawners, after seeing my fall outfit with tall boots, a jacket, belt, and scarf tied around my neck, and me asking if it looks okay, with a big head nod: Yes. Really. Yes It's like you're acting like you're a girl in snow, and she's acting like the coolest, and like she's so beast.

On Being A Man

Shawn, opening star bears dog food: How do you open this?
Me: I don't know. You might have to get scissors and cut it open.
Him: Or be a MAN, and rip it open [as he proceeds to rip it open]

On Baby Platypuses

While looking up platypuses pictures online for a school project and coming across the photo below: Oh my goodness it's a fat baby chubby platypus!

Then later: It's a chubby, wubby, baby platypus.
