Morning Coffee Chat - Starbucks Edition/Hubs Quote of the Day:
[pulling up to the Starbucks drive thru]
Lewis: [handing the Starbucks dude his card] "I'm not looking at your boobs, I'm just reading your name tag."
Starbucks Dude: [rubbing his chest] "You're fine, man. They're voluptuous aren't they?"
Me: [face in hands]
January 16th, 2012:
[Coming downstairs after playing]
Caleb [donning a peasant vest] "We're poor people and we have 6 children--two of which are adopted."
Lewis: "Really, what are their names?"
... Ryleigh and Caleb: "Ryan, Green Lantern, Lala, Wyatt, Ariel, and Alvin."
Caleb: "But Alvin died. And Ryleigh is pregnant with another baby."
Lewis: "Pregnant by who???"
Caleb: "Some dude."
The Hubs: [Face in hands]
January 8th, 2012:
Caleb: "Mommy, how old are you?"
Me: "Uhhh...25!"
Caleb: [showing me that he had his new Spy Watch on] "There is a 70% chance you are lying!"
Me: "Dang."
January 3rd, 2012:

Me: “Greek God of what, Beer Guts?
Caleb: “Yeah, his name is Beertholomew.”

Lewis: “Exactly.”
December 26th, 2011:
Ryleigh: "I have a boo-boo."
Me: "You do? Let me see."
Ryleigh: [showing me her arm] "Look at this BIG bump!!"
Me: "Um, that's your elbow, dear."
Ryleigh: "Oh."
December 14th, 2011:
Ryleigh: "My tummy hurts."
Me: "Do you have to go to the bathroom?"
Ryleigh: "No."
Me: "What's wrong?"
Ryleigh: "I think it's all this milk I just drank."
Me: [After scanning the table, looking for an empty glass and seeing none] "Um, I didn't give you anything to drink this morning."
Ryleigh: *shrugs*
November 16th, 2011:
Me: "New toothpaste today!"
Ryleigh: "Yay!" Me: "And this one is blue with sparklies in it!"
[I showed her the tube which had Optimus Prime on the outside] Ryleigh: "Pretty! Does it smell like Transformers?"
November 2nd, 2011:
Me: "Ryleigh, go get your coat."
[After 2 seconds] Ryleigh: "I can't find it, it's not even in my closet." Me: "Did you look?"
Ryleigh: "Yes."
[I go up to her room and find her coat immediately...in the bottom of her closet] Me: "Ryleigh! Next time look harder--it was sitting right here!" Ryleigh: "OK! Sorry! Sometimes my brain just doesn't work right."
