It's short and has the quality of a video filmed on a BlackBerry, but here is Killian's first adventure with the Slip n' Slide he got for his birthday...

Killian: A Self Portrait
Killian apparently decided to sneak a few pictures of himself with my camera on our trip to the beach. It was a good thing for two reasons:
- I failed to take any decent photos while we were there.
- It made for a very entertaining surprise when I downloaded the pictures from my camera tonight.
And my personal favorite...

Wii!
Killian got a Wii for his birthday as one of his big gifts. He was all about Wii Sports Boxing. Here's a sampling of his skills on display (note that he is incorporating the relatively unknown "kick" maneuver):
Happy 6th Birthday!
Killian turned six this past Thursday and had his birthday at a skating rink, Jellybeans, on Saturday. The party was a great success with 21 kids (and almost as many parents). Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and I only managed to test my gravity skills on one occasion. I am pretty certain that Bobbie would have approved of the party I put together. :)
Things I will miss
As Killian continues to grow and develop, I recognize things that I will miss as he grows up. Little things, of course, but so important to a parent. In particular, the thing that I'm thinking of as I type this are some mispronounced words by a young mind and mouth. Some of these he has moved past and is saying correctly now while others are still wonderfully present. Here is a quick list off the top of my mind:
chLocolate (chocolate)
Lellow (yellow)
dangerous tentacles (chemicals)
Of course there are many more but I can't think of them as I type. Boo on me for not recording these thoughts and observations more often.
Other things that I cherish now which I am certain to lose as he grows older include a genuine loving hug and cuddling. I think that these are likely to be the things I miss most over time and wish I could give to my parents enough to make up for the years when I was too big for that anymore.

Performance Lunch With Killian
Had lunch with Killian at Burger King on Saturday. This is a sampling of what such an experience is often like:
