Train Up A Child...

...watching Princess Bride.

Inigo: You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

Little Frog: What DOES it mean?

A: *grins** building vocabulary one line at a time...

The Von Trapp Wiggins Family

We sing everywhere. But especially in the bathtub.

L&KJ: Let it go! Let it go!!

A: I don't really like that song. How about you sing Love is an Open Door instead?

L: But we don't know that one. 

A: Ok, next time we watch the movie, pay close attention to that one. But it goes: Love is an open doooooor! Love is an open dooooor! Love is an open door!

L: Ok

A: (leaves bathroom)

L: Love is an open doooooooor!

KJ: Let it go!

D: Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!

A: (face palm)

So sweet

David left my lap to go in Laura's to watch their movie.

Movie quotes

Laura, while tattling on Karen: Karen came to me and said, "Do you trust me?" And I said...

A: Wait, wait. Don't even try to tell me anymore. Karen wouldn't have said that. You silly girl.

She quoted another common movie line earlier today, but I've forgotten it already. 

"Movie time"

I don't know why I bother putting movies on. The girls spend the whole thing doing something else. 

Ignore the mess; I'm reorganizing David's stuff.

Karen just picked "How It's Made" for her movie choice. She's such a geek. Laura said, "That's not a very fun movie!" She's not a geek.

Date night movie got paused when a baby started vomiting. Looks like David's first Bond movie is Skyfall.

"Pick a movie." L picked "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?" (about not being afraid of monsters), and KJ picked Monsters Inc. to watch.

Watching Veggie Tales' Little Drummer Boy while waiting for dinner.

Too prosperous

I told the girls to pick out a movie to watch while I took a shower. Laura sat down next to the movie cabinet and began pulling out movies, one at a time.

KJ: Belle!
L: You want Beauty and the Beast?
KJ: Yeah.
L: Ok. Now I have to find one... Look, Karen, here's Dora.
KJ: I want Dora.
L: Dora and Belle? Both?
KJ: Yessss!
L: Ok, but what about mine...? Oh, here's Sweet Pea Beauty.
KJ: Sweet Pea! Sweet Pea! I want Sweet Pea!
L: And Dora? Both?
KJ: Yessss!
L: I can't pick. There's too many.
A: I'm going to put Sweet Pea in. When you've chosen, Laura, we'll watch yours after Sweet Pea.
KJ: No, Belle!
A: You want Belle instead of Sweet Pea?
KJ: No, both.
L: We have to take turns. We'll watch both, but Sweet Pea first.
A: Uh, yeah, what Laura said.
KJ: Ok.
L: There's just too many, Mommy. Can I pick three too?
A: Um, no. We are not going to spend all day watching six movies. We have places to go and things to do and people to see.
L: Ok, just Sweet Pea and Belle?
A: Sweet Pea and part of Belle, but then we have to go. L: I wish we could watch Belle in the car while shopping.
A: *sigh* You have no idea how spoiled you already are. *As Sweet Pea begins, walks away muttering* "Too many movies..."

Laura must have known that today is International Talk Like A Pirate Day; she picked The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything as her movie today.
