Declan: I was playing DS while I was going potty.
Me: That's probably not the best idea.
Declan: Well it is to me.

Logan, over breakfast, to Declan: I was just thinking about when we're grown-ups. I think we'll live across the street from each other.
Declan, acting like Logan just stated the insanely obvious: We will!

Declanisms

Declan: "Can I take my pants off?"
Chris and I: "No, leave them on."
Declan, stepping out from behind the couch: [Pantsless.]
Chris: "Go put them back on."
Declan: [Pouts.]
Declan, several minutes later, still pouting: "You hurt my feelings, telling me to put my pants back on. None of my pants are cool."
Me: "What would make them cool?"
Declan: "If they could talk. Or if they were robot pants. Those are the only things that make pants cool."


Declan, quite nonchalant: "So, when are we going to have another baby?"


Declan, after seeing this commercial: "Mommy, our brownies aren't square, and that's a problem."


Declan's also been heard saying "Oh, SNAP!" when he wants something, and "Damn dogs" when they won't stop barking, both of which are hilarious coming from a 4-year-old.
