I picked up the boys one morning and Beck ran over to me.
Beck: Der is a backhoe.
Me: What is the backhoe doing?
Beck: It noisy and it digging up the sidewalk. Cause the sidewalk bumpy and I don't like it.
Me: So they are digging up the sidewalk cause you don't like it?
Beck: Yeah. They are going to put a new one in for me.
Me: Wow. The city must really like you.
Beck: Yeah.
Beck: I don't need help getting in the truck. I can do it.
Me: Are you sure.
(Beck then climbs into the back seat of the truck)
Me: Wow. You did it all by yourself. You are getting so big.
Beck: Yeah. One more day and I will be bigger than you Daddy.
Beck (at the park): Daddy, I pooped.
Me: Okay lets go change you in the front seat of the truck.
Beck: No. I want to go to Daddy house.
Me: You don't want me to change you here? You want to go to Daddy's house for me to change you?
Beck: Yeah. Cause I just did the biggiest poop ever!
Me: Well I guess we had better go to Daddy's house to change you then.
Beck: Killian! It time to go to Daddy house. I did the biggiest poop ever.
Killian: No. I did the biggie poop ever!
Killian noticed I had a band aid on my finger while he was coloring.
Killian: Daddy you got an owie?
Me: Yep. I cut my finger.
Killian leans over, looks very closely at my finger. Then kisses it and sits back down.
Killian: I kiss it better and I will hold your hand.
Killian then grabs my right hand and goes back to coloring for about five seconds.
Killian: I hold your hand. No more owie. I save you. Now take the band aid off.
(I take the band aid off)
Killian: See, I save you. (goes back to coloring)
Killian: Daddy, der a fire truck!
Me: I see it.
Killian: I want to be a (mumble, mumble, mumble) when I grow up.
Me: You want to be a fireman when you grow up?
Killian: No. Cone man.
Me: A cone man? What's a cone man?
Killian: I want to put the cones.
Me: You want to be the guy that puts the cones in the road?
Killian: Yeah. Cones.
Me: That would be a cool job. I'm glad you are setting your sights so high.
Killian got a flashlight in his Easter basket. He then kept shinning it on everything in the house and saying, "It just like Go Diego Go."

Sweet Boy
I was swinging Killian into the air while he sat in the laundry basket. I swung him up to the ceiling and then as he was coming down, I neglected to move my left knee cap out of the way. The basket and all the momentum slammed into my knee cap. I set Killian down and grabbed my knee. Killian turned to me and said, "I so sorry." I told him he didn't do it, Daddy just hurt his knee. Killian kissed my left knee twice and said, "No more owie." I am so grateful he is turning into such a sweet little boy.
When I picked up the boys Killian stopped me to point out "Look Daddy, I have petty daf-O-dil all 'round my yard." Every bulb blooming in Spring is a daffodil.
The boys and I were at the McDonald's in East Bay playing. Killian was playing with a ball and it rolled over to a little girl that was crawling. The girl sat up and picked up the ball. I wouldn't let Killian take it from her. I walked him over to the other ten identical balls. Killian had to have the one the little girl had. So I asked the parents if it would be okay if we traded balls with the little girl. I gave the little girl the other ball and Killian took "his" ball. He took two steps away from her, turned around and leaned down to her face and said, "thank you fo' twading me." And then he ran off.
I was driving the boys back to my place and they wanted to eat some chips. The conversation that followed was quite funny...
Killian: Whoa, I found a super, really, biggie, super, chip.
Beck: Hey, let me see that really biggie chip. (Killian holds it up) Whoa. That really is a super, biggie chip. You should eat it Killian. That chip is wonky. You should eat the wonky chip.
Killian: I can't fit the biggie wonky chip in my mouth.
Beck: Break it. Break it and eat it.
Killian: I bwoke the chip so I could eat it.
Beck: Now the chip isn't wonky.
Beck while climbing around the front seat of the truck noticed the change in the center console. "Oohh, I like money." (I think he gets that from his mom.)
When dropping the boys off Beck shouted with a big grin on his face, "I so happy I go wis you Daddy." He didn't say good bye or turn and wave. In fact, while he said that he was walking away from me. But I sure loved to hear it.
After Beck thought Killian was encroaching on his space yelled out." Killian is being naughty. Daddy, you tell him Killian you being naughty! Tell him."
The boys on this last visit found the two toothbrushes that I have sitting on the sink in a cup. Well they decided they should take Daddy's toothbrush and brush my teeth. They each took turns and they were quite soft while doing it. Then they decided to take those toothbrushes and brush their own teeth, their hair, the seats they were sitting on, their slide, some of the blocks, and the bath tub. Anyone want to buy me a tooth brush now? Would it have been bad of me to suggest they use Mommy's toothbrush to clean the toilet?

The boys always want to play in the sink constantly. Their clothes usually have to go in the dryer before I take them home...

Multi task
A new way to hide?

Faster and faster
Each time I pick up the boys I am amazed at new words or speech patterns they both use. I used to worry that Beck was behind Killian in the development of his large motor skills. That is not the case anymore. Beck is able to routinely hit me in the face with a ball every time I am not looking.
While wrestling with both boys Killian jumped up, pointed at me, and said very forcefully, "Bad dinosaur!"
I was helping Killian into his car seat while he was holding his toys...
Killian: Thanks Daddy
Me: You are welcome buddy
Killian: I just Killian. Not buddy
Beck: Yeah Daddy. We are Beck and Killian
Killian referes to Beck as "Beckers" and Beck referes to Killian as "Kill" It is so funny to watch the two of them interact. They play much better together than they used to. Both of them dumped all the balls out of the two inflatable cars that I have. They sat in one and then pulled the other car over the top of them creating a small fort. I heard whispering. Then Killian laughing. Then Beck yelled out, "This a good day!"
Killian told me that he had to go home so he could sleep. I told him that Daddy has a bed here for you. He said ,"I do?" I carried him downstairs and I went to my room and said, "This is Daddy's bed." And Killian said, "I just seep wis you." I took him into the twins room and laid him down on his bed and said, "Here is your bed Killian." He sat back up. Jumped off the bed and went across the room to the other bed and while pointing said, "No. Dis my bed. That bed Beckers." I have no idea what is the difference between the two beds. Both are singles, with Cars blankets on them. The beds are only separated by about two feet.
The boys finally posed for a picture. Or at least as close to posing as you can get. Beck hates cameras but finally said cheeeeeeese and didn't look away. I really wish I would have had my camera and not my phone while taking the pictures, but at least the saying of cheese was a good start.

One mo germ
Killian to me while entering the freeway: Daddy, don't go really way too fast so we fall off the wheels
Beck: Yeah. 'Cause then we have no way to get to McDonalds.
Beck and Killian have taken to saying," But I got one mo' germ". So they can use more and more hand sanitizer. After they rub the stuff all over their hands, they go wipe their hands on playground equipment, tables, stairs, blocks and come back saying," Uh oh, I have one mo' germ."
Beck: Yeah. 'Cause then we have no way to get to McDonalds.
