We were having a pretend birthday party for Camden Kellan and me. Before we blew out the candle, I asked them to make a wish. Camden wished for a puppy and Kellan wished for an eyeball cake. Sounds about right...

We've had some storms lately, and every time we see lightning, Kellan looks and me with an excited face and yells "FUNDER!".

I was having the best time playing matchbox cars with Kellan. I told him I'd be right back, and he said "Ok, I'll pause it".

We were going to the pool and Granfy said "Alright everyone! Get your butts out the door!" Camden looked at Grammy and said "your husband said butt".

We were pulling back into Grammy's driveway after Church. Granfy was following in his car. Camden looked around and said "where's Granfy? Oh! There's that knucklehead"...

Camden is such an artist. Kellan isn't quite there yet. He tried his best though, and used a white colored pencil on white paper and said it was a snowflake...

Kellan's been grumpy grouchy lately. I asked him what was bugging him. He thought for a minute, frowned, and said "bugs"...

Camden: Could you tell my teachers I'm coming down with something? And tap me on the head when you say it, so they know which kid you're talking about.

Camden: My teacher's never been to our house.
Me: You're right, Camden.
Camden: It's a good thing, because she would probably freak out at how dirty the floors are...

Kellan bumped his head. Later I asked him if his head hurt. He replied, "no, my brain does".

We were watching a movie. It showed a banana, then an apple. Kellan was naming all the fruit. When a peach came on the screen, he yelled "THAT'S A SCRATCHY APPLE!".

I let the boys take a really long bath. When I was drying Kellan off I asked him if his hands were like prunes. He licked them, smiled and said yea!

When Kellan points at something and I can't figure out what's he's pointing to, he gets frustrated. Then he says "No, Mom! Look where my arrow's pointing!"

I asked Kellan to stop spitting, to which he replied "I'm not spitting! I'm blowing out water!"

I don't know where they came up with this, but when the boys are fighting with each other, whoever is the most upset says "Fine! You can't eat my birthday cake!" The other one soon straightens up after that. I wonder if I should try that? Hmmm...

Me: Camden, worry about yourself.
Camden: I want to worry about Kellan.
Kellan: Camden, stop worrying about me.

At the "Turtle Restaurant", the boys went to feed the ducks and turtles. On the way, there was a little step. Camden turned, grabbed Kellan's hand, and said "watch your step, brother". This is why I keep them.

The boys (Camden) love being quizzed on math problems. Granfy asked Kellan what 466 x 12 is. Kellan replied "I'm not doing math today"...
