Cheyenne quotes from Reba

Cheyenne

What if the baby logs on one day and sees this?

Reba

Don't worry. By the time the baby is old enough to log on, there will be a whole new crop of butts out there.

Cheyenne

Mom, you rolled Van's socks into a ball.

Reba

What am I supposed to do with them? Make puppets?

Cheyenne

He likes them folded, otherwise they droop.

Reba

Things droop, Cheyenne. You'll learn that in life.

Reba

[to Cheyenne] I have an idea, why don't you go shopping and pick up your husband's special milk?

Cheyenne

[laughing] I'm a married woman now. I don't have time to go grocery shopping.

Brock

Who fought the War of 1812?

Van

Soldiers.

Brock

Which soldiers?

Van

I have to know their names!?

Cheyenne

No, which country?

Van

Oh! I have no idea.

Reba

Kyra, Cheyenne just felt the baby move.

Kyra

It's probably just gas.

Cheyenne

I don't get gas.

Kyra

We shared a room.

Van

[to Cheyenne] I told you I'm not going maternity shopping again. Those women look at me like they know what I did.

Cheyenne

But I need clothes that make it clear I'm pregnant, not fat.

Van

It's a heart keychain?

Cheyenne

It's because you hold the key to my heart.

Vanny!

Van

Mommy!

Cheyenne

Shoot me.

Cheyenne

Look at this. You can actually have a baby underwater.

Van

I hear whales do that.

Cheyenne

Was that a slam?

Cheyenne

I wore two different shoes to school today because I can't see my feet. [everyone laughs]

Reba

Okay, that's not funny.

Kyra

Not as funny as watching her get out of a chair. [everyone starts laughing again]

Cheyenne

I'm a mommy.

Van

I'm a daddy.

Kyra

You two sure catch on fast.

Reba

Well, I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to get a job. [everyone laughs; Reba has a serious look on her face]

Cheyenne

Oh, you were serious?

Cheyenne

I don't feel like eating cake right now.

Reba

[sits down next to Cheyenne] But you always like a corner piece. I remember when you were little...

Cheyenne

My baby is crying, Mom. [A tear falls down her cheek]

Reba

Oh, I thought that was Van.

Reba

Cheyenne, I know this is tough.

Cheyenne

Really you do??

Reba

Yeah, sweetie. I do. I remember sitting outside your door fretting the same way, but I knew in my heart it was the best thing for you.

Cheyenne

Well, it doesn't feel right in my heart. You know all these things that are supposed to be the right things to do, in the morning when I leave her to go to school, when I come home and she's already in bed, and when I have to study French Philosophy instead of playing peek-a-boo with her, well, they just don't feel right, Mom. Not to me.

Kyra

[about babysitting Jake] It's not fair! Why can't you babysit Jake?! I mean, you're married with a kid. I still have a life!

Cheyenne

What is the big deal? I used to babysit you all the time!

Kyra

Yeah, right! You used to stick me in my room while you sat on the couch making out with your boyfriend!

Cheyenne

[smiles] Oh, right!
