I like me!

(Kaiya had a scratch on her pinky finger and the next day we made baking soda volcanoes. Kaiya and Morgan spent about a half hour splashing in the goo until the scratch started to sting. Tom put a band-aid on it for her then she said this.)
Kaiya: Mom, look I have a booboo. It’s OK though, because now I can hold a tea cup. (mimes holding a cup) Look my pinky is already up!

Jordan (a cousin): Morgan who do you like better BYU or Utah?
Morgan: I like Morgan.

Kaiya: I love everyone on our world because they are so kind and sweet to me.

Morgan: I want the pink cereal. Pink is yummy.

Morgan: Mommy, where we going?
Mysti: I think I’m going crazy. I think you are going to drive.
Morgan: No! I have to be in the back, in my car seat.

Kaiya: Abooga booga booga! I’m nocturnal.
Morgan: Booga booga booga! I’m a turtle.

Morgan: I want an ice pop! I want an ice pop! Ice pop! Ice pop!
Mysti: Morgan, Good things come to those who wait.
Morgan: Huh? Give me an ice pop.

Morgan: My ice pop is all gone.

Morgan (tattling voice): Mom, the baby is playing with me.
Mysti: OK thanks for letting me know.
Mysti (to Viola): Good girl keep playing with your big sister.

Kaiya and Morgan: Aarrrggghhhh we are robot pirates!
Kaiya: We came to fight bad guys. *starts chopping Mysti’s leg with a sward*
Mysti: Aarrgghh That be me wooden leg. Ye can’t hurt a bad guy pirate’s wooden leg!
Kaiya: *starts punching Mysti in the butt* Punch Punch! You can’t hurt us because we have shiny armor on that makes it so we can’t get hurt!

Morgan: Mom I want some more chocolate cake.
Mysti: Oh no this is broccoli cake!
Morgan (Thinks about this) Mom, No it isn’t!

Kaiya: (to Mysti) I will always draw pictures for you, because I love you.

Morgan: Hi friend.
Kaiya: My name is not friend, it is Princess!

Forest Creatures

Kaiya: It is no fun jumping on leaves unless you are mouses. Mouses can make trampolines out of leaves and it is so fun…..Oh that would be so cute to watch.

(Kaiya and Morgan are pretending to get married)
Mysti: Kaiya, your wife is so lovely. I wish I had a Morgan like yours. How did you ever get lucky enough to find her?
Kaiya: Oh I just found her in the forest.

Morgan: Lets break your neck mom.

Smells like spider.

Kaiya: That was my idea. I thought of it with my brain.
Mysti: Yep. Your brain works great.
Kaiya: All of ours do. But not Daddy’s.

Kaiya: My butt smells like a little bit of spider.
Mysti: *giggle*
Kaiya: What? Does it smell like chicken?
Mysti: I think it is smells closer to chicken than spider.

Morgan: I’m hungry, I need some butter with toast.

Kaiya: Mom, if you get to big for that ball you just give it to me.

Bad parenting.

Kaiya: My parents won’t let me do what ever I want to do! They are just such mean heads! They should let me do what I want to do. They are so boring, boring, boring!

Tom: Kaiya, get back to bed now.
Kaiya: But I want to read a book in bed!
Tom: You stay up too late when you have books in bed. Leave it there and go back to bed.
Kaiya: DAAAAAD! You’re being such a weenie!

The fro-hawk!

(Tom got a mohawk)

Tom: Mysti, you have absolutely no poker face. If disapproval was a jacket you would be wearing it right now.

Mysti: I am just sad. You uglied up my husband something fierce.

Tom (often resembles Robert Pattinson): Who looks like Edward now? Punk’s not dead, it’s undead!
