Some great Vega-isms last night

Vega: I don't want daddy to get me
Mommy: Why?
Vega: because he's scary and roboty

later...

Vega: Lava is too hot to touch. So stay far away.
Vega: The mountain could blow up and we would get lava'ed

Vega on Treats

Vega: You can’t eat a tasty treat, Daddy. It’ll make you shrink!

Yummy Yummy Candy Slide

We were in our rental car on the way back to our hotel after having a nice dinner on night on Kauai when suddenly Vega spoke up

Vega: Hey guys I think I have a good idea.
Mommy: What's your idea?
Vega: Let's make a play park.
Daddy: What do you want to make your play park out of?
Vega: Wood
Mommy: What kind of equipment will you make for your play park?
Vega: Swings and a slide and a yummy yummy candy slide.
Daddy: Oh yeah
Vega: it's going to be the super fastest ride ever.

Another Vegaism

Vega: Is this a city?
Daddy: What city is this?
Vega: Um, Barack Obama
Daddy: No, Barack Obama is a person, not a City. This is Seattle, it's where you live.
Vega: Did Barack Obama make it?

Who has been to the Moon?

We were visiting some friends and Vega was playing with her 5 year old friend (and idol) Zola.

Vega: Look Daddy, it’s a full moon
Daddy: Wow, that’s beautiful. Have you ever been to the moon?
Vega: No
Zola: No
Daddy: Who has been to the moon?
Zola: Aliens
Vega: Barack Obama

Sorry Milk

Yesterday during dinner, Vega started getting distracted and she decided to pour some of her milk on the floor. I stopped her and took away the milk, so she picked up her water and started to pour it.

Daddy: Vega! You're not supposed to pour your drinks on the floor!
Vega: I'm not?
Daddy: No. What do you have to say?
Vega turns around and bends down to the floor where the puddles of milk and water are.
Vega: Sorry Milk. Sorry Water.

Princess Lunchtime

Vega put on one of her princess dresses and sat on her green chair with her arms crossed, very princess-like.

Mom: "What do you want for lunch Vega?"
Vega: "I'm a princess and princesses don't eat lunch"

Vega on Robots

We watched the YouTube video of Intergalactic by Beastie Boys with Songbird backing track this morning. If you haven't seen it, go look now. Anyways, it's got a robot in it.

Vega: I love Robots! They give us big hugs.

Vega on Shadows

It's time for bed and we're looking for Saucy (her giraffe)
Vega: Daddy! I have a Shadow!
Daddy: Where is it?
Vega: Right here! (waving hands and pointing)
Vega starts dancing and singing
Vega: **And I still have my shadow and I love it**

Shortly after this Athena found Saucy stuffed in Vega's purse which is in turn stuffed inside her Mater Tow Truck

Vega can't drink coffee

Vega: I can't drink coffee. I have to grow big and tall I can drink coffee
Daddy: Thats right
Vega: Just don't turn me small Daddy.

Sweetest Vega Quote Ever...

Athena was getting ready to take Vega to bed, so Vega came over to give me a hug goodnight.

Daddy: Night night sweetheart, sleep well tonight. What do you want to dream about.
Vega: I want to dream about you, my mommy and my brother Deklan.

Vega quotes on my Birthday

Today is my birthday and Athena & Vega have given me lots of nice cards, presents & food. Vega was in a great mood and started saying all kinds of silly things.

Vega Started Dancing...
Vega: shake shake shake, shake your booty
Vega: shake shake shake, shake your buddha
Vega: shake shake shake, shake your booty
Vega: shake shake shake, shake your buddha
... repeats endlessly ...

After opening one of my presents, I didn't open the actual box, so Vega asked me...

Vega: Can you open it Daddy?
Daddy: I don't know
Vega: Well, you can find out. Just try Daddy.
