Happy 1st Birthday Kayson!

We had a little party for Kayson's birthday. Hey, it is definitely a party if you have the following: balloons, cake, fun table cloth, presents, and at least one neighbor kid. We had TWO neighbor kids, so there! He was a little unsure of the smash cake at first but realized it tasted good after a few minutes. I should have had him open gifts first because everyone had to wait on him to take a bath after eating the cake!

There's that fire again (flash back to that hibachi nightmare!) 

Carving the Pumkin!

This was my first attempt at carving a pumpkin. Kyler made the sketch first and I copied it best I could. Man, that was tough to do! Grandma baked the seeds. Yum!

Hard to see but I am holding up Kyler's original sketch. Pretty close!

Baby Dedication

Here is a picture of the family at the church. Kayson's shoes came off in the nursery after the ceremony in case you are wondering. It was very bright and that's why we are all squinting. 

 

Kayson in the Garden

I had to submit some pictures for Kayson's baby dedication ceremony at our church. One of them came from these.

Yup, this one

Kayson's 11 Month Pictures

Well, I am super late on this one. Barely got any taken because he squirms too much. Forget the month sticker on the front...NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

He has awesome balance. He loves to just stand up. Now I need to teach him to take a step!

Look at all those teeth!

Gymnastics Kennan

Kennan is loving gymnastics. Now she has a place to flip around other than my couch!

Happy Birthday Uncle Mike and Grandma!

Thanks for all of your help with the kids! Happy Birthday!

Uncle Brian's Birthday

Kayson is 10 Months!

He finally got his first tooth and the second seems to be taking weeks to actually surface (hence the drool seen below). He is pulling up to a standing position on everything and acting like he wants to walk. He is still Mr. Picky when it comes to food and it just seems to depend on the stars alignment if he eats baby food on a particular day.  He barely sat still for these shots, so I am extremely lucky to even have gotten a few!

Kennan's First Day of Preschool

It's FINALLY here! She has been waiting patiently and asking every day for the past two weeks. She seemed confused that Kyler was going and not her (which is confusing to me too!). I don't think she has ever gotten ready so fast as she did this morning. Dressed, eaten, and teeth brushed before 7:45AM! Just look at hose eyes!

Back to School!

Kyler started Kindergarten today. He was more excited about playing with new toys during center time than about "learning" anything. At least he wasn't as nervous as I was! How about a nice candy apple for the teacher to sway her in the right direction? !
