Handy Hubby

I posted awhile back that Lex was building us an entertainment center built-in for our living room. Well, he finished it quite awhile ago, so I thought I'd share. It turned out exactly as we had hoped, he did such a great job! I love it! 

Here is a picture from the previous owners, when the house was on the market. 


Here's the design we came up with.


Getting started...it's one strong structure!



Finished product!!! Love love love it! Not sure why they left the little hole/nook to begin with. It was definitely meant for a built-in! Good job hubby!!



May Fun

Matching Brothers

First Finger Paints!






He loves the cozy coupe!


Faux Hawk


He LOVES to color!! Watching his bigs has had a big influence on him!


Sweet snuggles with mommy. He's awake here, just sneaking in for some good nuzzles in between playing.


He loves his new trike from Grammy & Pappy!


We might be in a Whataburger commercial! Look at the loot we got for just eating our dinner while they were taping a commercial!! Be on the lookout for us! We're famous!!


 Whose that monkey in the tree?? Yep...Katelyn figured out how to climb this tree. It's finally big enough and strong enough to hold her...yeah for rain!!


Memorial Day...Red White and Blue fun!



Ant Bites!! Yikes! Poor baby!

Field Day

Katelyn had her first Field Day this past Friday. We all went to watch and ended up having lots of fun! They don't do actual competitions (with ribbons and all) like we did as kids. It's more of a free for all with bounce houses, races, tug of war, etc. She had a blast!





Stroll for Epilepsy

A few weeks ago, Kyler and I headed to Houston for the Rock 'N Stroll for Epilepsy. We had a great time strolling around the zoo for a great cause! Hoping to go back next year with the whole fam!












Boyz

Here's a few pictures of the boys just being boyz! We have lots of fun during the week, doing boy things!









(And of course, Katelyn's always up for a fun time with her boys too!)

Happy 1st Birthday, Kyler!!

We now officially have a ONE year old! It is hard to believe a whole year has gone by already. Kyler is such a sweetie pie, loves his Momma more than anything, loves his blankie a whole lot too, and of course Katelyn, Levi, & Daddy are the best too (as long as Mommy is also still in the room)! 

He is walking across rooms now and so proud of himself. He still crawls most of the time, but has been practicing walking a whole lot! Everyday he walks more and more on his own. He tries to talk and communicate a lot. We've heard him say....Mama, Dada, Dog, Sissie, Car, Dirt, Light, That, and Door. He is constantly pointing at things and telling us all about them. He loves animals, especially dogs and birds. Some of his favorite books are ones with real pictures in them, he points and waits for me to say what it is. He is learning so much and just soaking it all in. It's so fun to be a part of his everyday life and watch him gain confidence and learn! 

He eats mostly what we eat, but he is not a fan of green beans. He picks them out and throws the on the floor. Ugh. Most everything else he is okay with, but he really loves peanut butter, fruit, yogurt, oatmeal....all the sweet stuff :)





On his actual birthday, we hit up Gymboree in the morning, played with his new water table (thank you Fleharty's), and had a picnic dinner in the backyard. Perfect day with our sweet baby!





"Mommy, I want to go to the play house!"


We just switched to a new pediatrician they didn't give me the exact percentages, but here's Kyler's ONE year stats:

23 lbs. 4 oz. (50-60% approx)
30" (50-60%)
Head 80-90%

He's got some sweet chunky legs, but somehow he's not off the charts in weight.

Love you sweet boy!
