Remember that one day ago?

As life has been busy, there aren't so many pictures to share lately. However, these kids keep surprising us and giving us a million reasons to smile every day. For starters, these kids say the darnedest things...

Arjenisms:
- "That one day ago" - his version of "remember that time we..." 
- "Babble babble" - okay, so that's not a direct quote, but he's into making silly, non-sensical words lately, and calling everyone goofy names like "poopy coconut" 
- "That sound like a plan?" or "no, that don't sound like a good plan"
- While reading letters in a book one night, he identified the letter 'p'. He then proceeded to ask "where's the elemenoh?"

Gusisms:
- Singing the alphabet. I've heard him go as high as Q all by his lonesome.  He also correctly identifies when there are two of something, 
- "I got chu!" as he grabs your face or neck or whatever body part he inadvertently-over-aggressively gets hold of
- "here you go Ar-ya" - as much as this kid may antagonize or provoke his brother, he still will get a cup for himself and for Arjen, or a toy, or a blanket, or whatever it is.
- "no go preschool" then when we get there, he's so quick to find his favorite toy that I have to chase him down for a hug goodbye

And Gus is finally showing interest in figuring out this whole bicycle thing:
