Give me a nibble

There is a part in the movie Madagascar where Alex bites Marty on the butt because he sees him as a piece of meat rather than his friend the zebra. There is a line that goes with it that goes something along the lines of, "What's a little nibble among friends?"

For some reason that is a major catchphrase around this house. We use it in all sorts of situations. For instance, when Hudson is biting Evan, we'll say, "What's a little nibble among brothers?" and then run to grab Hudson off his screaming brother.

As I took this photo of Hudson begging for bites of Eric's cereal I said the phrase to them. "What's a little nibble between father and son?"

Another phrase we use even more from that movie is, "Smile and wave boys. Smile and wave." We tend to use this one when things are just nuts. Rather than try to make sense of things, we just smile and wave. Kind of like we've been doing for the past six months. Smile and wave.
