Cleaning out the toys!

Hello! Sorry I have not posted more on our blog in the last few weeks, we have been getting back in our work/school routine. Kyle is great one day and then the next he doesn't want to go. On Tuesday evening, I began cleaning out Kyle's toy box (I know what was I thinking doing it while Kyle was awake). Every toy I pulled out he acted as if it was his long lost friend! :-)

Below are a few pictures I took after before bed playing with his long lost music box.

GSU Wild Life Center

Last Friday, we went to the Georgia Southern Wildlife Center. Kyle had a great time! When we first arrived we went out on the nature trails and looked at the birds and then of course Kyle found the playground at the end of the trail and made a bee line for the slide...which was wet and then he had to walk around with wet shorts for a bit but luckly it was warm enough for them to dry quickly.

We also went through the new Wet Lands exhibit. Below are just a few pictures I snapped from the day...

I thought this picture was too cute of Tommy, Kyle and Ashley!

LOOK!! Ashley and Tommy have spotted something in the lake...

Bouncy House!!

This morning, Mom and I took Kyle to the bouncy house place. This was the place that I wanted to have Kyle's birthday party at last year but it closed right before his party. It has recently opened back up under new management so we wanted to go check it out.
They have ALOT more jumping inflatables in this space than they did last time. I really think Kyle had a great time! Once he figured things out, he ran and jumped and played on everything.

They had a lot of toddler areas which I really liked. One of the inflatables was Sesame Street with a slide and all different activities for the kids to do.

Kyle on the little slides for his age...

Then guess what... he spotted the HUGE big boy slide! Yes he immediately made a bee line for it. This year he crawled up like a pro and did not even have to hold on to the sides.

First he came down on his tummy....

Then some how he talked me into getting on it with him. Not once....

But twice!

Mom snapped this picture right after Kyle did a flip and was going down on his back down the slide!

Wednesday night with Dee Dee

On Wednesday night, Kyle and I went to supper in Statesboro with Dee Dee (Ben's mom). We ate at Applebee's and then looked around TJ Maxx. Dee Dee suggested going down to the Pets Store to see the animals and that was a HUGE hit with Kyle!

He loved looking at all the fish. We even found some Nemo's. I think Dee Dee and I enjoyed looking at the turtles swimming in the water the most!

There were also lots of birds, bunny rabbits, ferrets, and every other kind of animal you could think of in this pet store. It was SO neat and I have honestly never seen that many different types of animals for sale in one place before.

However...Yes we ONLY looked! No pets for me! :-)

Build a PUPPY!

On Wednesday, Kyle got to go to Build A Bear and pick out his very own stuffed animal! At the very beginning he was so excited that every time I would show him an animal he would say "OK" and run to the "stuffing" area. I had to explain to him that no matter what or how fast he picked it out that he would get to stuff it. After that he took a few brief moments and selected a soft brown doggie.

Kyle waited very patiently for the Bear stuffer to finish with a little girl before us. He even announced to the entire store "I patient!"

Finally it was his turn! Kyle got to pick the puppy dog's heart out and put it in and then it was time for him to hold down the stuffing petal to fill his puppy dog.

After Puppy dog was stuffed he picked out a UGA shirt for him to wear. I wish I had gotten the picture of the stuffed motorcycle he wanted his puppy dog to ride but I was too busy trying to get it away from him that I didn't take the picture.

After going to the naming certificate area and check out Kyle has his puppy dog!
