They said... what?

It's been a while since we've put up a post of notable quotables from the kids. As they get older, they don't have quite as many cute misspeaks, but we still collected a few cute ones this year. Kids say hilarious things... like how Steven says Mom's dinner is gross... but likes worm-flavored Bertie Botts every flavor beans.... …. Hilarious.

Love these silly kiddos

Steven: You're a traitor!
Jefferson:.... … A tree... der?
(Jefferson stands on one leg and puts hands above head like branches)
Steven: Yeah, a tree-der...
Moral of the story, know what your insults mean before you use them.

Eleanor: When bees want their stingers to be really, really sharp, they sharpen them with the pencil sharpener. It happened in my class.

Jefferson: The oranges are hatching!

Eleanor: It will be 31 minutes!
As she announces her LOL Doll is an egg that needs to be hatched, and shoves it under her Dad's bum.

Steven: HooooOOOoooo
Jefferson: He's an animal.
Melinda: What animal?
Steven: A Ghost!
Melinda: A ghost is not an animal.
Jefferson: No, it's a Halloween!

Steven: I only have one sister left!
No, Adelaide just stayed home sick buddy, she's not gone forever.

Steven: Babies don't have eyes, right?
Melinda: What? They have eyes.
Steven: No, they are too little.
Jefferson: Yeah, they just have a face
Melinda: But, the face has eyes.
Steven: Nah....

Eleanor: Why don't we have school tomorrow?
Melinda: It's President's Day.
Steven: Stop fighting!
Melinda: Who is fighting?
Steven: You and sissies.
Melinda: We're not fighting. I'm just telling them about President's Day.
Eleanor: My favorite president was Martin Luther King Jr.
Melinda: Oh, he was a great man, honey. But, not actually a president.
Steven: STOP FIGHTING!

Steven: I need something to say.

Jefferson: chicken wrapped spu scary-gus?
Chicken wrapped asparagus

Steven: Hey Mommy, I let you feel better, okay?

Eleanor: What is we left out a bunch of chocolate on St. Patrick's day and it was all gone. We might think it was leprechauns... or we might think mommy got hungry and ate it all in the night.

Steven: Every time I run out of batteries when I'm running I get tired.

Adelaide: Why do you do this to me right after you haunted me?
Annoyed by the skeletons in the Pirates ride, right after the Haunted House at Disneyland.

Steven: The small war after all!
Just about the opposite of what Small World is about. 

Jefferson: In the Pinocchio ride, the snakes and ducks put him in a cage. But, then he got out.

Steven: They need to take your temperature to find out if you can go on the ride.
While being measured.

Jefferson: It's funny cause Pooh is eating paint!
He's right, it looks way more like yellow paint than honey.

Steven: Stop yellowing at my Jefferson

Steven: It smells like firemans.

Steven: I has an old hand.
In the hot tub, hand for wrinkly. 

Adelaide: Reading is like my super power.
Me: You inherited that from me.

Steven: We're not a team. We're partners.

Jefferson: I'm a cowboy! Moo! Moo!
Melinda: I don't think you understand the word cowboy.
Jefferson: Moooooooo!!!!

Eleanor: I have two stomachs, a dinner stomach and a dessert stomach. When the dinner stomach is full, there is a still room in the dessert stomach. But, there is no more room in the dinner stomach.

Steven: My sneeze sounds like a gunshot!

Steven: I like bee juice.

Steven: Is it Christmas?
Melinda: No, not yet.
Steven: How will I know it's Christmas?
Melinda: When you eat all the chocolate in your advent calendar, it will be Christmas.
Steven:... what if I eat it all tonight?

Adelaide: I like when I can see my breath, it makes me feel like a dragon.

Steven: My bad dreams were trying to get me!

Steven: I love you! Your face it squishy like cake.
To mommy

Eleanor: I don't want to make my bed! It doesn't make any sense! You are just going to mess it up again!!

Jefferson: Lightning will find you. It finds you and then it kills you.
