My favorite helper!

On most Sunday mornings Ben has to work so it has almost become a ritual for Kyle and I to get our grocery shopping done for the week! We go around 8 or 9 a.m. and then on the way home we stop for breakfast.

This past Sunday was no exception! We got up bright and early and went to Wal-Mart. I really like going early because no one else is in the store. (I will acknowledge and say yes, I know we should be in church during this time. I am not going to give the 10,000 reasons that just doesn't work right now....but yes I know that is where we need to be.) BUT.....for now we are getting our shopping done!

Kyle is such a big helper! I give him items to look for and he spots them for me on the aisles. He loves to ride in the big part of the buggy so I pile all the groceries around him. Lots of times we go through the aisles with him making towers out of my canned goods. Or playing telescope with the crescent rolls! In this picture, Kyle "spotted" an eagle flying!

Then when we get to the check out he helps me put everything on the check out counter. This past Sunday, Kyle told me "Mommy we are a good team!" And I have to agree....He just melts my heart!


And yes... he is holding a new hot wheels car for being such a good boy!

Future Olympian?!?

Okay, I think we have been officially watching too much of the 2010 Winter Olympics at our house! Last night, while we were watching the super fast snow skiing (sorry I don't know the official names of the games) Kyle started getting his stuff to ski.

His skiing equipment consisted of the blue baby sun glasses that has the strap around his head - he called these his goggles. His snow sticks were a plastic spoon from the kitchen and a red plastic hammer. Then his skis were to Handy Manny saws that he could slide on.


He was too funny cause he would run from one end of the living room to the kitchen and then ask us if he had won!


Who knows maybe the little GA boy who saw snow for the first time at 3 years old maybe a SUPER star in the Winter Olympics one day! :-)

SNOW!!

Can you believe it snowed in Georgia?!?! I am totally shocked and blown away! I was truly a pessimist and did not believe that it was really going to snow here, but I am SO glad I was wrong!

It started snowing at our house around 7:30 Friday night. We took Kyle outside and let him play in it for a little bit. I wish I would have video taped it because Kyle laughed and giggled the entire time!


Throwing snow balls....


On Saturday morning, we got up first thing and went out side. Even though the snow was about gone we stayed outside for about an hour.

Running to "get me" with a snow ball!

Baby Jonna Hope

On Saturday, we got to meet Monica and Jonathan's new baby Jonna Hope! She was born on February 2 at 1:30 am. She weighed 6 lb and 14 oz and was 19 1/4 long.

Baby Jonna is SO pretty! We really enjoyed spending time with them on Saturday. Ben loved sitting and holding Jonna. I didn't think he was going to let me hold her at all! :-)

Multiplying!?!?!

The papi's are multiplying!!!

Do you remember this post from last year? Well another year older and Kyle can add another papi to his mouth. UGH...I wonder how long this will go on!?!
