Katie: OH

I forgot we had a toaster

KB: No William, don't play with that!
William: Yeth!
KB: No! Put it down.
Mommy: No, William, you can't play with that. That's Rebecca's.
William: Oh. I yike Bucca'th duff!
KB: Rebecca, come put your stuff away!
William: Bucca, know what?! I yike youw duff!

Old lady: *studies me intently in the mirror at the Y as I try to avoid her eyes* .....Cougar?
KB: *startled* What??
Old lady: What does it say on your shirt?
KB: *looks down at swimsuit* Um... guard?....
Old lady: Oh. That's a nice tribute. *wanders off*
KB: O_O?!?!?!??!?!!!??!?!?!??!!??!?!!

While driving:
Virginia: That buck we saw on the way here was right up here on the left.
KB: Oh, right... HERE? *jerks the wheel to the left and back again*
Virginia: OH. *clutches heart*
Jesse: VirGINia......
Virginia: Don't DO that! I almost had a heart attack! TWICE!
KB: HA HA. You almost had a heart attack twice?!
Virginia: A DOUBLE heart attack. I'll have to have a double bypass for my two heart attacks!

Mommy: Katie Beth, why do you keep putting your toast in the oven?!
KB: ....Cuz I keep forgetting we have a toaster!

Matthew: *puts his arm in front of my face as he reaches for the bread*
KB: You want me to bite you?!
Matthew: You wanna bite me?! Huh?! Bite me! Bite me! *shoves his arm back in my face*
KB: *looks at his arm* *chomps down hard*
Matthew: Bite me! Bite me! Okay stop.

A couple minutes later:
Matthew: *all up in my face again*
KB: You want me to bite your NOSE?!
Matthew: No! You want me to SNIFF your TEETH while you bite my nose?!
KB: I... uh... wouldn't that... um... huh.

Even later:
VA: Yeah, that kind of startled me too. I mean, I looked over and you were latched onto his arm. ...It didn't really surprise me though.

Mommy: Anna, you need to do your math while you eat your ice cream.
Anna: But that takes away all the joy of eating my snack!
Mommy: Yeah, but you just had two hours of joy.

Rebecca: Did you know that Galileo didn't invent the telescope?
Daddy: Who did?
Rebecca: They don't know the name anymore, but they said Galileo stole the idea.
Daddy: I don't want to hear that. Galileo is my hero. *pause* I love him.

Max: *sticks head in door* I smell math. Lots of math.

VA: I was reading this homeschooling article and at the bottom it talked about the lady who wrote it. It said she had eight kids, and I thought, "EIGHT KIDS!!! THAT'S A LOTTA KIDS. NOBODY HAS... oh wait."

Patience: Tell me, woman!

Ben: I love those really trippy dreams when you wake up and you're like, "OH MY GOSH."
Max: Katie Beth's trippiest dream is when she divides by zero and gets away with it.

Jordan: I guess it's sort of a pre-nup, where one of the points is agreeing not to nup.

Telling Maggie about his cut that he got in the woods:
William: I dot dith tut in da woodth. I dot it in da woodth when I fell. I dot it in da woodth. I did. But I didn't ty when I dot it. I duth thaid, "Daddy yook! Daddy yook!" An' he yooked.

VA: I think we should be soulmates.
KB: Ok.

VA: Good gracious, that's like your fourth tissue! That's a lot of tissues for one nose!

After a heated Facebook conversation (on William's changed relationship status) in which Hana and KB argue about whether or not best friends are allowed to marry their bff's little siblings and decide to set the siblings up with each other:

Katie: heheh

VA just saw William's statu

s

Nala: ROFL

what was her response?

Katie: "I have Matt Damon marked out, sry."

Nala: WOAH

she's got her sights set high

Katie: :-D

Nala: what if we got william to look like Matt Damon?

Katie: to the status with you!

Nala: we could smash his face against a wall several times...

Anna: *in a happy preschool TV show voice* We have hearts everywhere on Valentines Day! A story about two little boys and an old man!
KB: Oh no.

Kyle: I think I will go to the wife store
Kyle: would you like to go with me
KB: good idea
KB: nah
KB: I don't need one
Kyle: and help me
Kyle: pick out a good one
KB: haha
KB: well ok
Kyle: make sure she makes good sammiches etc plz

Katie: um

so

also today

and you better believe I submitted this to MLIA

we were talking about how fat VA was

and she was telling me about how yesterday she was 3.5 pounds fat (3.5 pounds over the socially acceptable limit of 110 pounds, as defined by myself, according to Jesse)

and then she took off her coat and she was only .5 pounds fat

and I said, "Just think how not fat you'd be if you weighed yourself in the nude!"

(our bathroom scale is in front of the art closet)

Nala: O.O

Katie: and then I said, "Sometime when the family is all gone... I'm gonna do that."

and she gave me this look

and said

"You know, there's a reason they have scales in the bathroom.... called bathroom scales..."

it had never occurred to me that I could actually pick up the scale and move it into the bathroom to weigh myself in the nude

and even THEN it didn't occur to me that I could do it while people were home until we told my mom and she said I didn't even have to wait

Nala:

WOWOW

KB, I still don't see how it DIDN'T occur to you that you could weigh yourself in the nude in the BATHROOM, WHILE everyone was home

wow

Katie: I DON'T KNOW, OK

Katie: "Today, I read an MLIA about how if you put your earphones in your nose, you can play music out of your mouth. It worked. I also discovered that if you do this in a public library, people will give you funny looks. MLIA"

Nala: :-D

Katie: it doesn't work

I'm trying it now

Nala:

WOWOW

Katie: I just caught a glimpse of myself in the window

Nala: you're supposed to open your mouth

Katie: HAHA

my mouth is open

obviously

Nala: oh okay

Katie: maybe I just cna't hear it cuz it's my head

I'm glad you corrected me about it though

I'm glad you're taking it seriously

Nala: I'm about DEAD right now

I think other people need to hear about this too

Katie: dangit

Nala:

QUOTABLES

Katie: I forgot we're out of tissues in here

Weighing myself in the elevator for a Physics lab:
KB: Ok, that's exactly 110 pounds.
Brandon: ....I'm two of you.

Patience: *saunters up with a paper shield, Nerf sword, and sparring mask* *menacingly* Whoooo wantth to fight me firtht?
VA: I'll fight you first.
Patience: *menacingly* Okay. Wait, you don't have your thtuff!
VA: That's ok. *gives me a significant look* I'm maid of honor.
KB: *stares at her*
VA: *starts to look confused*
KB: WHAT?!
VA: Wait. I didn't mean... I don't know WHY I said that.
KB: I think maybe you meant "made of IRON"?
VA: IRON! Yeah.

Announcer: And he's going in for the home run!
KB: THIS IS FOOTBALL!
Rebecca: Virginia doesn't know the difference.
VA: I do NOW!

Patience: You jutht thtabbed me with your shoulder!

VA: Bust a move!
KB: ....Thanks! But it's a little cramped in the shower so I'll have to wait.
VA: .....WHAT?!
KB: Did you not say, "Bust a move?"
VA: Oh. Yeah. I completely forgot I said that.

VA: Daddy dropped his glasses in the paint. It was a fun moment.
KB: Wow, um, I bet it wasn't fun for Daddy....
VA: It actually wasn't fun for any of us...
KB: Hahaha. Did he cuss?
VA: Jk, he didn't get that mad
He just sounded sort of sad.
KB: Lol! Was that his last pair?
VA: He was saddened not only from his present affliction, but from the fact that he had previously dropped his rag in the paint.
KB: Wow, not a good day for the paint.
VA: I don't know
or glasses
KB: Or rags

Drew: I think im becoming a superhero.
KB: Oh yeah?? How's it work??
Drew: I'll let u know when i find out what my powers are. But last nite my snot was neon yellow!
KB: NICE. That has to be a good sign.
Drew: Of course! And all this coughing is my insides changing.
KB: Cool. :-D
Drew: Thats my theory at least.

KB: How goes the transformation? Any new developments?
Drew: Well i did catch a pen that fell off the desk mid air...
KB: Super reflexes, possibly? You'll proably be able to do all kinds of flips in a little bit.
Drew: Hmm...maybe i was mistaken, maybe im a ninja!
KB: Always a possibility! But do they have neon yellow snot? I was always under the impression that ninja powers were in the "achieve greatness" category while super powers were in the "greatness thrust upon them" category. (Being the child of Zeus or somebody is the "born great" category.)
Drew: Haha! Well dad said it was a sinus infection...i find that suspicious!
KB: So do I. A sinus infection sounds entirely too mundane.
Drew: Psh yeah, i think hes hiding something...
KB: Maybe HE had a so-called "sinus infection" once.
Drew: Hmmm...OR he's the nemesis of said "sinus infection" people. That would make for very awkward family gatherings...
KB: Yet another possibility!
Drew: He told me it was tmi, yet another highly suspect reaction.
KB: Hmmm. You should probably avoid him until you know for sure if he's nemesis or ally.
Drew: Hmmm fact.

In bed at 11:00 on Saturday morning:
KB: I'm really hot and I wanna get up but I have to fix my blankets first and I'm not looking forward to that, so here I am... not doing it.
VA: That's my favorite way of fixing problems.

VA: I'm reading this article on good study habits because I'm procrastinating.

KB: is that all? May I go?
Kyle: You may leave.
KB: thank you
Kyle: No problem.. none at all.
KB: no doubt i will see your bright shining... text... a manana
Kyle: yes. maybe an essay if you're lucky

Arie: Oh man. This is GENIUS. When my wife gets pregnant I'm gonna paint a mural on her stomach. It's gonna be of the baby as it looks in her stomach. It's gonna be awesome! Hey, WAIT. YOU'RE an artist. YOU can do it!
KB: Uhh, oh!
Arie: Yeah, you'll paint the mural.

Nala: (you know, I love MLIA, but sharing them with you, and then hearing the stories that inevitably come after them is even better!)

KB: Man, I need to work up my calves. I have like NO calves.
VA: You have more than me....
KB: You have chicken legs!
Later, doing P90:
VA: Man, look at his quads! They're like the size of a chicken!
KB: .....Wouldn't that mean that he, too, has chicken legs?
VA: .....Oh yeah. Well I mean one chicken PER THIGH.

Anna: *shows me a paper "laptop"* I have two CDs in here. One is for saving the world, and one is Humorous Movies and Shows, Disc 2.

At 1:00 am:
KB: You know how some people use their cell phones as flashlights when it's dark?
VA: Yeah....
KB: Well a refrigerator is a pretty good flashlight. Why don't people just carry their refrigerators around?
VA: That might work too....
KB: Yeah. I think I'll do that.
VA: It's a little late for you.

Mr. Tucci: The earth doesn't make grunty noises when it turns.

Watching figure skating:
KB: She's not Egyptian! She looks like an Egyptian. Is she an Egyptian?!
Announcer says she's from Japan.
KB: See?! She's not Egyptian! Psstt! You're not Egyptian!...... You're TWO Gyptians!
Rebecca: *giggles a lot*
VA: What?! No, it's an Egyptian, like an Email.
KB: Ohhh, like a virtual Gyptian!
VA: Yeah!

Hana: I told Nathanael about my dream last night. He asked me what I was on. I told him I wasn't but that I was best friends with a red head. He said he loved how that could always explain any thing.

Max: what if you always had a second option? and it was cake?

Jesse: Patience, can you please move your merchandise to a more suitable location?
Patience: WHAT did you thay?
Jesse: Can you put your stuff away?

Brandon: The calculator's like, "What the crap!"
