Sunday Fun

Today we had some fun outside, yet again. We had lunch over at my parents house and Kyler just loves it over there. As I have said before he loves Basketball and it is his new obsession. He is even saying Basket!! Anytime he sees any type of hoop he points to it and says basket. Today he wanted to go outside and play after lunch so grandpa and Rhett took him out to play. Of course all he wanted to do was shoot hoops. They were kind enough to even lift him up to the big hoop and let him shoot the ball in!

After we dropped off JJ at work we went out to our backyard to play. JJ found him a new sprinkler that he just had to get him...he thankfully likes this one!! It did take him a minute to warm upto it but once he figured out how to put the balls in it and have it squirt them out he was in love and would laugh at it. We then got a call from JJ saying he didn't have to work tonight and went and got him. After that Kyler wasn't so into the sprinkler as again playing basketball with dad and hammering things in his little cabin and riding his scooter. Here are some pictures of him playing in the sprinkler though.
Such a Cutie when he is happy!
These ones are actually from a few days ago, but thought I better post them before I forget to. We went outside and played with Khloe and Donna again.The kids sure do get along great and are so cute to watch play together!!

Another "I can't wait for my baby to be here" post

I'm totally in nesting mode and have been for the almost 7 months now:) I am such a "mom" lol. Today we were going through some of our food storage and I found a big can of formula that you get at Sam's Club that we had left over from Kyler and its still sealed and doesn't expire until next year, when we found it you would have though I had just won the lottery! I was so happy and I think I might have done a little dance. Then I read an article online talking about how you can get free formula samples, and sure enough I went and signed up for them all:) I've also been stocking up on diapers and its kinda sad how excited I get when the box shows up on our door step! JJ laughs every time he sees my face when we get them or something for the baby, because I just smile from ear to ear, and he just doesn't understand why I am so excited over something so simple as formula and diapers.
I know its going to be extremely different and a lot harder than I can imagine, but I can't wait to have this new little one here and in my arms! I look at all the itty bitty clothes and just can't wait to be able to have him in them. I am very nervous over how Kyler is going to handle it and how he will treat the baby, but at the same time I see how he is with other  kids and just get so excited for him to have someone to play with and love! I know he will adore Xander once he is use to him being around. I am so happy now to be having another little boy, yes I did want a girl but just seeing Kyler play and thinking about him with another little boy playing basketball and running around I just can't wait! Even though I don't want this one to grow up as fast as Kyler has and I know he will. Its crazy to think that if everything goes as planned right now, in about 80 days our lives will change all over again! This pregnancy has went by so fast, sometimes it seems like its been a long time but usually it seems like it was 2 weeks ago when I found out. I will be hearing his heartbeat again on Tuesday and can't wait too. I love being able to hear it and knowing he's ok. Its also nice to be able to feel him kick now and that his moving and ok, even though he has his days and night mixed up already. I can't wait for him to be here!! I am so curious to know what he looks like and if he'll look like Kyler. These next few weeks just can't go fast enough for me, and I'm pretty sure they'll go pretty fast with everything we have going on. Colton gets home in 34 days, Derek leaves in 47, and then a month later Xander will hopefully be making his debut!! There is a lot of family things happening with all of that going on plus the little things we have planned to do with just our little family. It'll be a fun few months and it'll be even more fun and maybe even a bit stressful when Xander gets here but I'm sure we'll love every minute of it:)

Loving the Weather and Phone Pics.

We have been taking full advantage of the wonderful weather we have been having! I know I have been blogging a lot lately and there have been tons of pictures to go with but since this is pretty much my form of journal that is why:) I just want to be able to remember everything about this time with Kyler and have pictures he can go back and look at. I'm planning on printing out my blog one of these days so it can be a book so we can have it to remember all these fun times. Anyways back on topic....We are just loving the warm weather and Kyler especially likes it because that means he can be outside for most the day!  Here are pictures and things we have been upto the past few days!
Kyler out on his Scooter Saturday Morning. He was still trying to get use to driving it.
Running through the Sprinkler! He wasn't a big fan at all!  So we got his water table out and his slide to let him play outside for awhile yesterday afternoon.
I was hoping we would get this before his birthday but it didn't come until Thursday and then I finally decided to open it and make them this morning. We got a Mickey and Friends Waffle Maker. Kyler wasn't sure whether he wanted to eat them or play with them at first. He also decided it was more fun to dip them in the syrup with his hand and draw on the table than use his fork.
We had also gotten him a pool and since he didn't like the sprinkler we got the pool out today! He liked that a lot more than the sprinkler. It did take him a minute to get use to it, but once he was he had a blast:)
He also had to get his scooter out again!! Its his favorite thing to do now that he's use to it. He was on it for at least 30 minutes while we were outside this afternoon, and even started falling asleep on it towards the end!
These next pictures are ones off my phone I hadn't pulled off yet. These first ones are back from the 14th. We were over at my parents house and my friend Ashlee dropped by with her little girl Ava to give Kyler a birthday present. Him and Ava had a blast playing together for a few minutes and laughing at everything the other one did. It was so cute to watch them interact!
These are from his checkup at the doctor's. While we were in the waiting room he was climbing on a chair fell off and hit is head on a pot that had a plant in it. He ended up getting a cut on the back of his head and dying the back of his hair red until we got home! He was still a pretty happy boy until he got his shot. We went up to get him a treat on the way out and he gave the reception lady the dirtiest look I've ever seen him give! It was so funny, but sad because she wasn't the one that had given him the shot. She thankfully just thought it was funny to and laughed!
That is all for now:)
