Kyler -- July 2015

Summer is always so much fun as a kid and living by family has been so nice to have my kids do things that I did in the summer. Kyler and Devin are always around the swimming pool at Grandpa and Grandma's but we have also been able to enjoy things like fireworks and family vacations too. It has been a fun month of great adventures and Kyler doing things only he could come up with!

  • Had a great time with baby sitters as my knee continued to heal from surgery, but also cried when they left, he just gets so attached. 
  • Kyler tried his first "firecrackers" courtesy of Uncle Darrel and Aunt Lynsey he got to throw snaps on the ground and often would get "duds"
  • On 4th of July Kyler was a force to be reckoned with, carrying around his trusty squirt gun and just having a great time. 
  • Daddy took Kyler to see his first fire works, even though he was getting tired, he loved them!
  • He loves going hiking at the Hudsonville Nature Center or as he calls it "the park with no playground"
  • Since I was not able to do much with my knee healing, we painted lots of pictures and mailed out a few
  • Not sure, but we think that Kyler is starting to read, either that or he has an amazing memory
  • Has loved to help pick and water the garden, always so proud of the veggies we grow
  • Went to the dentist with Daddy and did so great, but was warned that he is going to need to stop sucking his thumb...which just meant he tried to put a blanket over him to hide it
  • Devin got sick and he kept saying "its okay Dev"
  • Had a sliver in the bottom of his foot and screamed while we took it out, poor kiddo, so many tears
  • When a friend was over, he went to get a tissue for the little girl's "runnies" and wiped her face
  • Has begun to give "wild animal hugs" which is a super tight hug around the neck, the best
  • Has started to jump into the deep end without being caught. Does not seem to worry about going under the water
  • having a fun time swimming at the pool, has become a nice picnic time with cousins
  • Had fun getting the car washed with Daddy
  • Brushed my hair to get me ready for my date with Daddy
  • Told me that Daddy is "Jengo Fett" Kyler is "Bobba Fett" so I asked him who I was and after a little thinking he told me I was "Tinka Fett"
  • At the front of church, the pastor asked about what do we do with water so Kyler said "drink it" and later he added "make big splashes in Grandpa and Grandma's pool"
  • After lots of jumping in the water, ate dinner and then threw up on me...probably drank too much
  • At nap time, always prays for Aunt Lynsey and for the Baby in her tummy that needs to come out
  • After picking up coupon prizes for finishing the first half of the summer reading program we had a powdered donut hole picnic
  • When we visited Costco, he loved to watch the "cherry picker type" machine and the guy making pizzas
  • "When I get large mommy, you can still sit and snuggle with me"
  • We took a trip to Middlebury Indiana to stay in the Essenhaus. Had so much fun with family and snuggled with me in bed at night. I loved our sleepless cuddle night even if I was tired
  • Kept singing "Its Christmas in July, Its Christmas in July, hi ho bederio, its Christmas in July" followed by the second verse of "We're going to eat the presents"
  • When asked to hold up the shirt he got for a present, he lifted the shirt he was wearing to flash his tummy
  • Had a great time playing miniature golf and eating a big blue ice cream cone
  • Went to the vet and loved looking at the kitten "mommy he isn't licking me" and later upset because of a strange sound from another cat...it was purring
  • Went to drop off paperwork at his school and went right up to the stained glass window and said "mommy look it's Jesus at my school"
  • Playing with the sprinklers he started to say "I don't want to get my hair wet" (does not get that from me =)
  • Had a great visit with Great Grandma who even had cards for him to play with and he loved identifying the shapes and colors for her. 
  • Went out to dinner and a movie with mommy and Daddy to see Minions! He loved it, but more exciting was the popcorn!
  • Has become so good at his balance bike! he can coast for 100s of feet!
  • Was so excited to get a "Stormtrooper Hot wheels car"
