Cam: Mom, even when I'm full I just keep eating because I wanna be like JOHN HENRY. [flexes arm muscles] "He's a mighty man!"

Brian to my Mom: We're looking for puppy. [Cam was getting ready for bed.]
Mom: Well... I saw puppy go flying somewhere...
Cameron: [genuine excited curiosity] by himself?!
----
[Brian takes Cameron into the men's public restroom.]
Cam: Oooh! Are those those stand-up kind of potties?!
Brian: yep.
Cam: Are you going to use one?
Brian: yep.
Cam: I'm gonna watch you!
[Other men next to them move closer to urinals.]
-----
Getting into the car...
Cameron: It's hot! I wish we had sunscreen!
-----
Cameron @3yrs: Mom, please cut off this part of the banana. [a tiny bit mushy]
Marisa: why?
Cameron: because!
Marisa: but WHY?
Cameron: because...it's harrbul [horrible].
----
Brian: hop in! [the car]
Cameron: I'm hopping for real life!
Brian: ...I'm hopping for fake life.
----
Brian: Say please...
Cameron: I said that a lot already. I say that all day!
-----
Brian: Did you know that the word 'gullible' comes from the story Gulliver's Travels?
Marisa: hmm... I could believe that.
Brian: [pause] I just made that up right now.
Marisa: DANG IT!

Brian: "Cam, am I the boss of you?"
[Cam nods slowly]
Brian: "Well, who's the boss of me?"
Cam: [pause...] "Jesus!"
------
Brian to Cameron: "Cam, don't feed her the missiles."
[we have some random diving sticks that look like rockets or...missiles according to Brian.]
_______
Cam: What's that?
Brian: It's shortening.
Cam: What's it for?
Brian: To make you shorter.
-------
Marisa: Cam, do you want...cereal for breakfast? Or toast? Or cantaloupe?
Brian: Or do you want a dance party? [Starts dancing.]
Cameron: [Pointing a sharp finger at Brian] NO! That's NOT part of my breakfast.
-------
Cameron: What's this for? ... What's this for? ... What's this for? ... What's this for? [asking about a tool]
Brian: So you can ask about it.
