I can't believe 2014 is almost over. What a great year it's been! Thanks God!

Kellan has decided he wants a race cars that crash birthday theme for his 4th birthday. He asked for a chocolate cake that tastes like diarrhea. Well, if I make it, maybe it will.

Kellan can not get enough of the "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" book. His little dimples just pop up or in when we read that.

I told the boys they needed to give dad a break and get out of his hair. Kellan looked at me surprised and said "We're cutting Dad's hair?"

Camden came home from a birthday party with cotton candy. Kellan saw it and yelled "I want cotton and candy!"

Kellan is obsessed with watching Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (except the educational pilgrim part). He calls the movie "Charlie Brown Chicken".

Camden was trying to get Kellan over by him. He finally said (and I don't know why) "Come here little fishy. I have a treat for you!"

I love that the boys' favorite movie is Talladega Nights. That's not inappropriate at all.

As I'm writing this, I wonder how many times I've said the same thing in blog posts. I'm 36 1/2. You can't expect me to keep track of what I've written.

Camden wanted something (I can't remember- go figure) and Dad said "We only do that on special occasions). Camden looked at Dad and said "I'm I a special occasion?"

I am so proud. Without help, Camden can spell "on", "off", "Camden", "Kellan", "Mom", "Dad", "Tilley", and "poop".

I thought with boys I'd never have an argument getting dressed for school in the morning. For some reason Camden had a fit and wanted to wear the sweater I laid out for Kellan. They usually wear similar sizes, but this sweater happened to be a belly shirt on Camden. I don't know what the teachers think of us, and I probably don't want to know...

I was in the bathroom and Kellan devilishly said "I'm going to turn off the light and you'll get scared." I replied "I'm not scared of anything. I know God will protect me." Kellan then put his hands up in the air waving and yelled "No! No, I'm not God!"

When Kellan wants to be rubbed he begs "rubba" me.

When we returned to swimming lessons at Hubbard after Thanksgiving the coach asked the boys if they had turkey and mashed potatoes. Camden said yes and Kellan said he ate goldfish...

We got done with Chloe's birthday party and Camden dramatically sighed and said "I've been to too many girls birthday parties". Hope that's not a problem in the future...

I get asked if the boys are twins so much that sometimes I just say yes. Camden, of course, called me out on this and said "No! We're 17 months apart!"

Kellan calls Christmas trees "Christmas"... Just "Christmas"...

The boys are freezing in the morning when I get them in the car (it's 60 degrees). I said "ok, ok! I'm putting the heater on right now!" Kellan said "It's a dryer not a heater" and would not let the subject drop  until I agreed.

We left the clinic in which we found out Camden had an ear infection. When we were almost to the door Camden asked "Am I done with my surgery?". Keep in mind, we went to a CVS clinic center. The cashier looked totally confused as to say "I didn't know we performed surgery here"...

We were trying so hard to win tickets to Disneyland from 99.9 KEZ. Camden walked around the house for nearly a month saying, "we need to be the 99th caller!"

Kellan's been having ear infections like crazy. The doctor finally used a water spray to clear out his ears. They told Kellan that there was kitty and puppy poop in his ear. I cracked up, cleared my throat, and acted like a good mom. Kellan was/is fascinated by this. He even told the Fed Ex guy he had dog diarrhea come out of his ear and he's never going to the doctor again.

True line from Kellan. "When is it April, because I don't like Friday"...

I came into the kitchen and Camden had the refrigerator door open. I said "Camden! What are you doing?!" He replied "I'm just rolling up the cheese, sweetie".

All this talk about Disneyland got to Kellan. He asked me when we were going to "Disney Lion".

Camden can write mom. He asked me what my name started with. I accidentally said C instead of M for Mom. He looked so confused and said "So you spell your name CMOM"?

Lately in the car, I've been missing my destination and keep having to turn around. For some reason when Granfy missed his turn and had to turn around Camden smugly said "My mother never turns around".

On Thanksgiving day, Kellan came out of bed in full bed head mode and asked "Is it 'Thanks-for-giving?"
