Happy Halloween!!!





Here is our little turtle!!! We went up town to the trick or treat thing they did... what a mess. There was tons of people, long lines, and crappy candy. I don't think we will do that again. I really wanted to take Kyler through so he could see all the other little kids dressed up. He did like that. He didn't really get scared of any of them but he did see a clown and laughed. The weather was so nice through I can't complain about that. I think we will get all dressed up again tonight and head out again. Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!!!

A couple pictures...



We had our pictures taken this weekend. I was not as thrilled as I usually am. I think it is his age. He didn't really cry he just wanted me or Sheldon. So as soon as you set him down he would jump up and run to us. Plus the guy who took the pictures was not helping any. Then he was rushing us when we were trying to pick out what we wanted and I ended up with a lot of pictures I don't really need and spent a lot more money then I wanted to. Plus the best pictures are in the fall setting and that might be kind of weird in a Christmas card. Might have to snap a few shots myself at home or something. Or send out Thanksgiving cards this year instead of Christmas cards. That's an idea.

Tidy Tot


I think we might have a neat freak on our hands. Not last night but the night before we were making potato soup. Sheldon was peeling the potatoes so he pulled the trash can over by the sink and took the lid off so he could just sling the peels in there. Well Mr Kyler realized the trash can was in the wrong place. He took it upon himself to push the trash can all the way back over t0 the corner where we keep it. Then he came back and got the lid and put the lid on. Then he found a potato peel that had missed the can. He held it up to me and said " trash trash"

I told him yes that was trash so he took it over and put it where it belonged... in the trash can. Then he was digging around in the cabinets under the sink. Found the dust pan and little broom. He thought he was hot stuff sweeping the floor.

March of Dimes -Jail and Bail

I need your help. I have a warrant out for my arrest for gawking at the construction workers and working under the influence of caffeine. I will admit... I AM GUILTY AS CHARGED!!!

Yes it is time for the annual March of Dimes Jail and Bail. My bail is set at $300. However last year I took top prize for raising over $500.00. I think I have a little more motivation...his name is Kyler. Kyler was born 9 weeks early and spent the first 5 weeks of his life in the NICU at St Luke's Hospital in Kansas City. He weighed only 2 lbs 8 oz. But thanks to all his Doctors, Nurses and the March of Dimes he is a happy, healthy 18 month old.

I have a web address where you can go to pledge your donation for my Bail...

http://jailandbail.marchofdimes.com/bail4babies

Even a donation as small as $1 would be greatly appreciated. You would be surprised how fast the $1 donations will add up.

Please pass this web site on to anyone you know who would also be willing to donate. If you would prefer to just give me the donation I can take it to Jail with me on Oct 29th. If you prefer not to use the web site and will not see me before Oct 29th just let me know how much you would be willing to donate. I can write you down as a pledge and they will mail you and envelope to send you payment to them.

Thanks for all your help.

Kylers 1st Parade.








Here are a couple pictures from this weekend. Kyler's first parade! He loved the bands and like to dance to them. He would just wave and clap at everything. In that first picture he is actually blowing them kisses. He loves to blow kisses right now.

My very first post

Ok... well I'm new at this so bare with me. I don't really know what to put today but wanted to have atleast one post on my new blog. We had a really good weekend. Sheldon was out of town Saturday night so it was just me and Kyler. We didn't do much. We went to Walmart and took a walk and that was about it. Grandma Nancy and Aunt Rachel spent the night last night. Kyler loved building stuff with his big block with Aunt Rachel. Actually I think he had more fun destroying what Aunt Rachel made to tell ya the truth.

Sheldon and I were out of town last week so Kyler got to stay with Grandma and Grandpa and he loved it. He was very clingy and would not let me leave the room all weekend though. This morning was really hard for him. He was a little extra tired this morning and cried really hard when I leave him at the babysitters.

Well I guess that's all I have to say right now. More to come later.
