Camden, Kellan, Grammy and I all had a fun time at the "mallf" today! Carousel rides, train rides and seeing the puppies!

Camden was complaining of carsickness on the ride home. I told him he'll be okay, and that we're almost at the store. When we got out and were walking in to Walgreens, Kellan asked Camden if he was still carsick. Camden looked at Kellan miserably and said "now I'm store sick"...

I asked Kellan if he wanted some Cheez-Its. He looked at me surprised and said "Jesus?"...

Kellan was almost done with his dinner, but wouldn't finish the last few bites. I told him no dessert then. He replied, "that's ok. I don't want dirt!"...

Camden fell backwards in his kitchen chair tonight. It scared him more than anything and I was right there to pick him up and comfort him. He was completely fine in no time. Later that night I asked him if his head still hurt. He looked at me pathetically, said yes, and proceeded to rub the opposite side of his head that he was complaining hurt right after the fall...

Grammy took a picture of Camden, and he immediately wanted to see it. This kid wouldn't give up. Grammy said "hold on a minute. I have to edit it". To which Camden replied seriously "Don't head it it!"

I put a Charlie Brown shirt on Kellan. He looked down at it and said "Good Grief!"...

At Buffalo Wild Wings today, the waitress called Granfy "Grandpa". Kellan immediately corrected her and said "No! That's not Grandpa, that's Granfy!"

The boys absolutely love to play with the iPads at Buffalo Wild Wings. They ate so well, that they got ice cream for dessert! Camden looked up at me mid-scoopful and said "my ice cream is so delicious I can't play my iPad"...

When we say our prayers at night, Camden adds "please bless Mom, Dad, Camden, Kellan and God". That should get us some extra points, right?

During said outing at Buffalo Wild Wings, Camden looked over at Granfy, and said "Hey Jim! Do you like me?"...

Camden does such a good job looking out for his younger brother. Now that I think about it, Kellan always makes sure he knows where his big brother is too. We were playing at the mall playground, and Camden came up to me and asked "Where's the Charlie Brown man?". (Kellan had his Charlie Brown shirt on"...

In the car, Camden wanted everyone to copy what he was saying (until he got totally annoyed with that). Then Kellan piped up. "Hey! Will you guys 'coffee' me?". Then he said 'ello in a British accent. What the...?

Camden's in the stage where he thinks the words 'poop', 'butt', etc. are hilarious. (I'm still in that phase, but who's judging). I finally told Camden that if he said 'butt' one more time he was going to his room by himself. A few minutes later he said that word. I looked at him angrily and his defense was "Mom. I said 'but'. not 'butt'". Little future politician...

Camden can count to 10 in Spanish and knows a few other words. He asked him what 'Hola' meant and he said 'hi!'. Then Kellan said "Hola? Olaf!"...

I asked Camden what 2+8 is. When there were a few seconds of silence, I asked him again. His reply? "Hello? I'm thinking! Hello?". He's lucky he's cute...

Before we left the house, I asked the boys if they needed to go potty. Neither did. Halfway down our street, Camden shrieked that he had to go. I asked him why he didn't go at the house. He replied, "I didn't need to go then, but now I do- Yay!". I don't think 'Yay' is the right word here, monkey...

I went to the bathroom to check on Camden, only to be greeted with him bent over - naked butt in my face. He asked "Is it clean? I've been wiping for an hour!" Oh the joys of motherhood!

The boys collected seeds and we planted them in the back yard. They can't wait to check on and water them every morning. A few have sprouted and I'm not sure what they'll turn into. Something that shouldn't be in the backyard close to the house probably...

We were listening to MMMBop in the car and Camden announced "Hanson sounds like girls, but they're really boys". I definitely had to bite my tongue on that one...
