4th Year Celebration
We celebrated Killian's 4th birthday on Saturday. Here he is pimpin' his new hog with his rebellious powder blue Thomas the Tank Engine helmet.
Needless to say, this gift was the hit of the party among the kids. He was really good about taking turns with it. The party was quite the success, despite the torrential downpours. In fact, they helped bring the temperature down to a tolerable level rather than the humid sweatfest that was the earlier part of the day. He received several other presents about which he was excited. The other two immediately sought after by him were the game Elefun and a Diego Rescue Pack set.
His grandparents took him to spend a couple of weeks at their house the day after his birthday while Bobbie undergoes her cancer treatment. However, he is apparently going to have a second birthday party at their house on his official birthday tomorrow. Two for one birthday deal... how can he go wrong?

That's spicy!
As usual, I spent the day with Killian yesterday (Saturday). It was officially "retarded hot" outside, but we accomplished quite a bit. He had his first karate class at 9am, a birthday party for a friend of his at 11am, and a grocery shopping trip with me & Rich.
The karate class was pretty fun and he did pretty well. I wish I had thought to have brought my video camera, but I'll make sure to catch it next week. He did pretty well. It was a 30 minute class and he stayed pretty focused for about 20 minutes and even toughed out the last 10. They learned a standard punch, an elbow and a block as well as a standard fighting stance. He was pretty cute in his gui, I'll give him that.
The birthday party was fun, but painful. They held it in a park picnic shelter. It would have been great, but it was unbearably hot out yesterday. It was the second birthday party with a pinata that we've been to this month which is pretty cool. The kids seem to dig it. They had a water balloon fight at the end of the party which was a big success as well.
After the shopping trip, where Killian was very excited to be pushing "his own" little shopping cart that Lowe's Foods has for kids, we hung out at Rich's house for awhile. Killian tried some DORITOS Blazin' Buffalo & Ranch flavor and he learned that they're a little hot. After discovering that, he proceeded to blow on them to cool them off. Laughing when I saw it I asked him "Did that work?" and he said "No. They're still hot." but he kept blowing on them and continued to eat a few more. Just one of those things you learn from kids. Sometimes what seems obvious may not be so.

More for my organization sake than anything, here is a list of some posts from Paulblog that have somewhat significant references to Killian (along with some irrelevant information) to start things off:

About this blog
People want to blog about their kids. I get that. I really do. They are a HUGE part of your life. In many ways, they become your life. However, just as I don't want to have to constantly read about other people's kids just to keep up with other things in their life, nor do I want to laden my other blog readers with such information. So, I've decided to dedicate a blog specifically to my daddy chatter and thus "Killian & me" is born.
