"Daddy, it's time to look for a girl to marry."

...right out of the blue...

"Laura was pretty."

Nick's response to what was his favorite memory of the Crespo family in Colombia. We met the Crespos on the flight to Colombia and have fond memories of them entertaining us while there.

"I'm weared out."

Nick walking off the soccer field after his first session of "Introduction to the Soccer Ball" at the Penfield Recreational Center.

Why we have Corinne...

"God thought he might make us want to laugh."

Nick finds something that Corinne could choke on...

...and ceremoniously presents it to Diane with great fanfare and then adds,
"Maybe we should start thinking about Santa giving presents to good boys..."

Nick tells Mom he wants a Palm Pilot...

"When I grow up, I'm going to get a Palm Pilot. When you die, I'll get yours..."
Now as he realizes what he just said, his face changes from matter-of-fact to demure and adds
"But, you'll still be my mommy."

"I'm gonna break the thoughts out of Daddy's brain."

Nick and mind control.

"There is that big thing that makes a great husband."

Mmmmm...I must be doing something right....wonder what?

"Your daughter is crazy!"

Nick demonstrating his strong grip on the obvious.

"The penis gets so excited when it gets to pee, that it puffs up."

...okay...I've looked this up in the manuals and it just ain't covered!

I think he understands compassion:

"If I saw a child that was lonely with no family, I would go to his house and get him and bring him here so he could have a Mommy and Daddy and sister and brother."
... we just may be doing something right...

"I'm going to give Corinne her juice so she'll stop torturing mine."

... and so the signal to sibling rivalry is given...

"You're too much for Dad! You're MY wife!!!"

... Oedipus lives. I fear for my life.

"It wasn't pretty; I should have named it Bob Dylan."

...Nick drawing an association between the aesthetically challenged folk singer who intruded upon Nick's Victoria's Secret angels and the staggeringly large nose debris he extracted from his tiny, button nose.
