Uplifting Words

Here is a new clip from lds.org....another really good one.

Swingin'

Today we took a little walk to the city park, and let Ky take his first ride on the swings! He loved it, but he was getting so cold we had to cut the ridin short this time.... here are some cute pictures of our adventure! :)

5 Months

So this is going to only have a few pictures...he didn't want to smile today, but i got some cute ones anyway...i have more plans for cuter pictures! So look forward to them! :)

As for the kiddo
~He is sitting up on his own!! Yup i had no idea he could for as long as he can, but today while taking pictures he sat up for 2 minutes straight!! I loved playing and trying to eat all the leaves!
~ He is quite the talker or squawker...he is very vocal at times!

~ He still loves his baths...he is quite the splasher and loves to suck on the wash cloth
~ He is getting super close to rolling from his back to his tummy...just needs to figure out how to move his arm out of the way.

~He can roll from his tummy to his back...he is doing it a little more frequently...wish he would do it more so i wouldn't have to save him so often when he is done with tummy time.
~He loves LOVES little kids. He will just stare and laugh at them. In church Sunday he couldn't get enough of the 6 year old in the bench in front of us.

~We have started giving him fruit in his cereal and he absolutely loves that! He was not loving the plain rice or oat cereal...but now giving him apple sauce in it he scarfs it...literally.
~Sunday he got his first taste of squash and scarfed that as well....he would lean in to get it!!
~He is grabbing for things now, which is so fun. Just have to keep my plate out of the way when he sits with me!!

 

Well i think that is all for now.

Now You See Them.....

We finally got our trees all removed!!! Here are some before and after shots!

Before (one in the back by the side of the house, a stump hard to see and the massive one)

Poof gone!! (not as easy as poof, but as far as pictures go it poofed)

Three trees in the backyard

No trees in the back yard!

oh and of course we have to show you my best bud!!

Choose This Day

I just visited lds.org today and this was the clip they had on the site...what an important lesson for us to remember. Today is always a better day to do what we are supposed to be doing. Today is the day that we need to change and be better. These words are more for me than you all, but i thought i would share them with you because if they touched me, they might touch you.

The Sink. . . .A Happy Place

Today Kyler was being fussy and wanted to be close to me...the floor outside of the bathroom would not do today....so what does a mom do so she can still get ready before noon....she becomes inventive!

He loved it. I loved being able to still get ready before noon when he was snoozing!! :)
ps his pants are not floods...he just kicked his legs till they scooted up....he is not a poor orphan with too short of pants!

Growing, Growing, Growing

Dear Kyler, 

Please stop this growth spurt...I dont like getting up every 2 hours with you at night to feed you when you typically sleep 10 hours straight! I also am so hungery and thirsty trying to keep up with you and how much you are putting away the last two days!! I am exhusted!!

Plus i want you to stay small. I went through your clothes to put away and organize your newborn and 0-3, and even some 3-6 clothes...your growing toooo fast! PLEASE SLOW DOWN! :)

Thanks, and love you forever,

Mom
