Bonus Post: Sound Bites 25

Olivia, holding a toothbrush with the wrong end between her front teeth: It's like I'm a talented rabbit.

Kaitlyn: I get dressed and watch a movie and eat lunch.
Bryan: She has plans for the day.
Kaitlyn: Well, I need to watch a movie.
Bryan: You need to watch a movie?
Kaitlyn: I need to watch a movie Sofia.
Bryan: You have to watch a movie?  What will happen if you don't?
Kaitlyn: I need to watch Sofia.
Bryan: But do you have to watch a movie?
Kaitlyn, pointing at her dress: Well, look at Elsa!
Bryan: That's your most compelling argument so far.
Kaitlyn: She's pretty!
Bryan: Elsa is pretty.
Kaitlyn, pointing at an icon: That's the Jesus!
Bryan: That's Jesus.
Kaitlyn, bouncing on the bed: That's mommy's bed.
Bryan: Yes.
Kaitlyn: So, I watch a movie on the couch!

Olivia: That was when we were all here but we did not have Matthias born yet.

Kaitlyn: She needs her pacifier.
Me: She's a he.
Kaitlyn: No, she's a Fias.

Gretchen: Olivia has to turn on the light.
Me: Why does Olivia have to turn on the light?
Gretchen: Because I didn't.

Me, absent mindedly singing: Bees will buzz, cantaloupe, dandelion fuzz...
Bryan: Did you say cantaloupe?
Me: Yeah.
Bryan: Cantaloupe dandelion fuzz?!  Are you serious?
Me: Those aren't the words?
Bryan: Kids will blow dandelion fuzz.
Me: Really?  Bees will buzz, cantaloupe, dandelion fuzz...  That's not right?
Bryan: No!  What is cantaloupe dandelion fuzz?
Me: It's a list of summery things.  Like in The Sound of Music: Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...
Bryan: I demand that you put this in your sound bites.  Cantaloupe dandelions.
Me: It fits!

Me: You're out of luck, toots.*
Gretchen: I'm not a toots.  I'm just a human and a Gretchen.

*I looked up toots, and one definition I found is as follows:
A term of endearment, roughly equivalent to babe, sweetie, or honey.  Note: Only applicable if you live in a black and white movie.

Babysitter: Is Gretchen usually particular?
Me: Yes.
Babysitter: Very, very particular?
Me: Welcome to my life.

Olivia: Mommy, is 100 bigger than all the numbers?
Me: No.
Olivia: Turn off the music so Gretchen can hear you.
Me: *turning off music* No.
Olivia, to Gretchen: She said no.
Gretchen, to Olivia: She just forgot.

Olivia: What is this road called?
Me: Allentown.
Olivia: That's a nice name.  Would it be a good name for a daughter?
Me: Not really.  Town is a city.
Olivia: But August is a month.
*Note: August is also her cousin.

Olivia: You better hurry up and get there before I am starving.
