A weekend full of pictures...

This weekend was SO pretty we spent a lot of it outside.

On Saturdy morning, we all went to a Animal Block Party that was held right up from our house near the mexican resturant we like to go too. It was not a big event at all but it was an opportunity for local businesses and shops to set up tables outside of their shops and an animal adoption agency was there with pet adoptions. (Don't worry... we did not get ANY ideas!) But it was alot of fun for Kyle to get to see the kitty cats and puppies. He really liked the small dogs but didn't really care for the big ones at all. The highlight of this adventure was when he got to see and pet a miniture horse. He was too funny! He started off petting the horse and then stuck his foot out for the horse to see his shoes and then told the horse that his Ga Ga was coming. :-)

I tried to get some pictures of Kyle Saturday morning in front of the house...

On Sunday, Ben did not have to work (first day off in 13 days!) so we took full advantage and stayed out in our back yard.

Kyle liked climbing up on the lawn mower to "drive" it.



Of course he was on the swing set and slide ALOT! I remember last year when we first got it, my little boys legs would not reach from step to step. Now this year he climbs the ladder all by himself!

And he played in the sand box. He has smaller shovels but he insists on using the biggest one in the yard. :-)

For the love of Papi!

After bathtime tonight Kyle ran to get his beloved papi (pacifer) so we could start reading books and getting ready for bed. To my suprise he came back with two papi's! He thought he was too silly with both papi's in his mouth!

A Rainy Messy Sunday....

This morning when we woke up and saw how messy it really was, Ben and I were stopped in our tracks for a few minutes of what is something fun and different that we could do with Kyle inside.

So after breakfast we got out some paper and made Kyle lay on it to draw his outline. (Yes, he thought this was VERY weird!)


Then we got out the paint and let him paint the outline of himself that we drew on the paper! Kyle thought this was too cool that Daddy was laying on the floor just like him.

Then I painted his hands and let him make hand prints. I think this really tickles because he giggles the entire time.

He was waving his hands so fast...one hand is red and one is blue.

The finished painting! We all had SO much fun! Kyle had to get a bath after we were done and then he crashed for a good 2 hour nap.

(Thank you Miss Lauren for the paper!!)

Ever feel like you wear more than one hat at a time?!?!

Well Kyle does...literally! On Tuesday night, he was a cowboy, a fireman and a construction worker...all at once!

Daddy and Kyle

Ben was off work today and we took advantage of this and played most of the day. I think even wal-mart was fun for Kyle this afternoon since Daddy was there to drive the buggy! However when we all got in the car he could not figure out why I was not driving. :-)

Ben went outside and Kyle wanted the blinds up so he could see him. Then Ben came over and started playing with him through the window. Kyle thought this was great!

Two cool dudes playing with puzzles!

Playing with puzzles.... I think Kyle finished his first!
