Happy New Year! 2016 is gonna be great!

Camden's version of Jingle Bells. (And of course, I'm extremely proud).
Jingle Bells Batman smells
Robin laid an egg
'Batmanbile' lost it's wheel
And the Joker got away
Hee hee hee

The boys were a little excited with all the Holiday fun. They were being wild and I exclaimed, "That's not how my boys act!". Kellan replied, "Yes it is!".

It was really rainy one day, and Camden's school grounds were soaked. Camden was just in awe of this and went on and on about how 'completely insane' it was.

Camden had jammie day at school, so Kellan did too. He walked proudly into Miss Briget's class with his paw patrol jammies and tennis shoes on...

Kellan wanted to play the quiet game in the car. I thought this was a great idea. But Kellan's rules state that he gets a trophy during this game if he's the loudest...

Kellan was telling me a flat out lie. Camden called him out on this. I told Camden, "I know my Kellan and he wouldn't lie to me". Kellan piped up, "Yes he would!"...

When Camden grows up he's going to be a football player. Kellan's going to be the kind of doctor that looks in your ears. Either way, I don't think I need to contribute to a 401(k) anymore...

The boys are getting so good at practicing my phone number. Except yesterday Kellan said, "6-0-reindeer"...

We saw Miss Asheline at the grocery store. Kellan ran up and said "Hi!" with his dimples. When we left, Kellan looked at me quizzically and said, "What's Miss Asheline doing here? She lives at Preschool"...

Kellan has honest-to-goodness New Year's Resolutions this year. Mine was to count and keep track of how many times I sneeze during the year. Before 11:30am on New Year's Day, I had a sneezing fit and lost track...

I was putting body spray on in the car, and Kellan asked me if I put that on so I don't smell like bad words...

Seriously, if the boys say 'Mom' one more time, I'm going to change my name...

The boys love to hear Bible stories. They call the one where Moses leads the people out of the desert the "Mean King" story. Camden asked me what the mean king looked like and before I could answer he said, "I think the mean king looks 'similar' to Pontious Pilate". Verbatim. Catholic Schools are working wonders!

The boys must have been very good this year because Santa was great to them! When someone asks what they got for Christmas, Kellan immediately says, "We got 'Silly Scream' from our crazy dog 'Scuse Me!"

The live Nativity scene went off without hitch much to my chagrin. But there was a saving grace. Right before Mass started, Kellan pointed to the Nativity Scene on the altar and asked (loudly) if he was going to be a 'German Shepard' again...

I told the boys to chill out. Kellan's ears perked up and he asked if we were going to Chili's.

Kellan miserably asked me to help him wipe his butt because his arm was SO tired...

Both boys have had a little virus. I took Camden's temperature and told him he had a little fever. This kid absolutely beamed. Yep. He's mine!

Kellan was watching as Camden opened a Christmas present. Before Kellan even knew what it was, he patted his brother on the back and said "I can't believe you got that Christmas present, Camden! Good job!"...
