One night recently, the girls were having fun taking turns dancing and cheering for family members. When it was your turn, you were supposed to stand up and dance.
"Go Kiki, go, go, go Kiki! Yay!"
The biggest fan of this was Little Guy, who LOVES dancing (a la Yo Gabba Gabba!) The next day, I caught him standing in the floor dancing and singing his own name clearly - Go Buddy, Go Buddy, Go Buddy! (except his actual name) We've never heard him say his actual name until now. :)

Yaya: Mama, these worry lines on your forehead are getting kind of, eh, worse lately?
Keeks: Yeah, there are 4 of them!
Me: One for each of you. This one is for Yaya, this one is for Buddy...
(Keeks points to the deepest one and giggles): This one is for ME - it's the biggest one!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: Who's Mama's Sweetest Little Boy in the whole wide world?
Buddy: ME!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yaya: Are you a baby?
Buddy: Nooooo.
Yaya: Are you a toddler?
Buddy: Nooooo.
Kiki: Are you a kid?
Buddy: Nooooo.
Yaya: Are you an adult?
Buddy: Nooooo.
Kiki: Wait, we forgot teenager. Are you a teenager?
Buddy: Nooooo.
Yaya: What are you?
Buddy: I a COWBOY. Yee-Haw!!

Yaya, after her bumping her head on the passenger-side car mirror: "It should say 'mirror is closer than it appears' instead of 'objects in mirror are closer than they appear."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yaya, to me: One does not simply get to Saturday without having to pass a bunch of tests first. (Her first internet meme. Cute!)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yaya, to me, after school: Today we built a tower of pizza boxes during PE, and I said it was the Leaning Tower of Pizza. Then Coach told Ms. P and Ms. P said that they need to follow me around with a notebook and write down things I say. Why did they say that? (Gee, I wonder) ;)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keeks, playing with a Barrel of Monkeys (you hang monkeys off of each to form a chain): Mama, I know I'm supposed to be doing my homework, but I'm hanging around 'til you can help me. (Keeks ROTFL).

Buddy, to me, during a shopping trip that was postponing his snack: "Need food, pleash."
Me: "You're hungry? Would you like some goldfish?"
Buddy, clapping: "Yesh, pleash. YAY!! Go-fish!!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Buddy: Go home, NO!
Me: Where do you want to go?
Buddy: Moosha house. Go car! (Wanting to drive the little motorized Jeep and run free through the yard and play with the dogs :)
