Kyler -- Week 16 (3/3/12-3/9/12)

We spent this whole week in Michigan getting ready for Lynsey's wedding, which meant that lots of people came to visit Kyler. On Saturday, the bachelor and bachelorette parties took place, so Kyler got to spend the night hanging out with Grandpa and Grandma Wiersum, as well as with his cousin KayLynn. I think that KayLynn and Kyler are going to be great friends when they grow up. KayLynn loved to come and give him kisses, which always seemed to make Ky smile. When KayLynn started to cry, it really upset our little guy because I am not sure he had ever heard another baby crying. The next day at family dinner, he again could not keep his eyes off his little cousin. Aunt Lori had fun holding him too, and KayLynn didn't even seem to mind him being with her mommy.

Monday was a busy day with Ryan grading midterm exams and everyone helping out with wedding programs. Ryan had a great time getting Kyler to laugh. He would laugh, and Kyler would laugh back at him, so on. It was so cute, but by the time we got the video camera out (see below), it was almost over. As the night went on, Kyler started to get cranky with his teeth, but somehow Uncle Darrel got him to smile huge when he saw him! Tuesday we had a great time going for a walk in the park as a family. It was so nice to have a little family time during Ryan's spring break. Wednesday was another night of working on the wedding, and Kyler had fun hanging out with Aunt Nancee and watching all the fun colors of the candy.

Thursday brought a day with Ryan doing research at the museum in Ann Arbor and many things to be worked on for the wedding. That evening, Grandma Wiersum watched Kyler while all the bridesmaids went to get their nails done. When we got back, Kyler was flirting with all the girls, and Duncan was keeping an eye on them at his side. We have a pretty protective puppy when it comes to people he doesn't know around his brother. Friday brought a lot of prep work and the rehearsal dinner. Aunt Diane came over to watch Kyler, and they had fun playing and giggling. What a fun busy week with so many wonderful people to see!
