El & Eddie: Seven(3rd)

Playing Mario Kart DD against the shorties...

Elena angrily: Oh my gosh! I got third! 
Riddick looking at the on screen stats: Ummm seven times third. 
Me: BWAHAHAHA!!!
Elena jumps up and charges me. 
Me laughing my head off: WHA??? It's not me! It's your brother!
I swat her away and she charges Riddick 
Me: Hey! Hey! Hey!
Elena swings at him and his he does this weird floppy jaw thing while bobbling his head reminiscent of Jim Carrey: Ayyayyayyayya
Me: Ooookay, leave your little brother alone. You're bigger than him.
Riddick: Ayyayyayyayya 
Me: See, he's just a little baby Taun Taun.
Elena: Shut up!

El & Eddie: No Satisfaction

While at the coffee shop listening to our favorite barista cycle through sampled gun sounds on his phone...

Elena: Well, that's not very satisfying.
Riddick: Well, you're not very satisfying.
Elena: I don't think you know what the word even means.
Riddick: Yup. I have no clue.

Elena continues to prove that she's bigger than me

I'm finally getting around to posting about this. Earlier this week, Elena came into my bedroom holding an impromptu art project. She's such the lady of the household that she can get out anything art and craft related, make a mess in her creative modds, clean it all up, and I'm almost never the wiser. Thus, I wasn't even aware that she had been busy with a project. She asked what I thought about it --it was a pink impression of her hand-prints on a piece of white glitter foam-board glued at an angle on a pink piece of glitter foam-board. It was done really nicely, and I asked, "What is it for?" She replied, "Well, I just wanted to do it for school to take and show my teacher and my class. I think it shows we can beat cancer."

Yeah.

Proud, proud, proud.

El & Eddie: Bertram and the Bunnies?

At the table while eating lunch...
Riddick: Elena, Bertram is afraid of bunnies.
El: Riddick, Bertram IS a bunny.
Riddick: Well, he's still afraid of them.
El: You're so weird.
Riddick: Heheheh
(I have no idea what they are talking about.)

When I tucked Riddick in he informed me that cats only have nine lives. Poor things.

Wonder Twin powers...activate!

As I was laying in bed reading, I began to eavesdrop on Riddick and Elena playing with some action figures in the living room. I heard Elena say, "She's your niece" to which Riddick responded with a flat, "Oh."
"So you're her uncle."
"Oh, I didn't know that." he answered back. At this point I sat up and noticed he was holding a Batman figurine.
"Well, I'm leaving and no one will ever find me!" he announced.
Then he jumped up, made a swooshing noise as Batman took to the air (obviously the Dark Knight now has the power of flight), and ran from the room.
I then heard Elena say to no one, "Oh, I'll find you. I will find you."
A moment later Riddick walked back into the room with his hands in his pockets and said, "Has anybody seen Batman?"

Middle of Nowhere

We were driving on Old 13, south of Carterville, with residential areas on our right and open countryside on our left. Riddick looked out his window and said, "Dad, I think that's the middle of nowhere over there."

El & Eddie: Bumpy

Me to kids, "Kids, we've ended up with a really busy Saturday!"
Ro, "At least we have it all planned out."
Me, "That we do."
Riddick, "I have a really bumpy Saturday."
Me, "Why?"
Riddick, " 'Cause I have mosquito bites all over me!"

Riddick: Mmm-hmm.

El & Eddie: Birds

Riddick: Look at all those birds! There's like 3000 or something!!
El: Ya, they're going north.
R: Yup, they're going to our house. Our house is north.
El: Well, actually there is a different part of north where it's warmer. That's where they're going.
Me: Well, you're kind of right. They are going somewhere warmer, but it's the opposite of north. They're going south.
R: Yup, our house is south.

El & Eddie: Bad Mermaids

Elena loves to interact with movies, similar to how audiences do with The Rocky Horror Picture Show. They're currently watching the latest Pirates movie, and the mermaid scene came on. So, of course, Elena conjured up imaginary mermaids wreaking havoc throughout the living room. Riddick is usually in disagreement with the current game afoot, as he is usually the "victim", so he abruptly declared, "No, Elena! All bad mermaids live in Kentucky!!!"
