Unique Phrases: 

"It's okay, Mom.  It was an accident."

"Oh no!  That's not good."

"That's pretty cool."

"Is it big and Juicy?" (Danny taught him that one)

Some Confusion: 

me: Jakob, how did you get that cut on your finger?  his response: "I fell out of Grandma's car." (huh?)

and no matter how many discussion we have about this: 

 "Mom, I have a baby in my tummy."  or "Mom, the baby in my tummy is making me really hungry." or "Mom, the baby in my tummy is making me cough."  (hmmmm....we're working on it)

Fears:

monsters, ghosts, owls, or other scary shadows at night

mommy won't come back
