Him about 5 minutes ago. He's changed a bit. He seems a little more happy about being in the world now.
Here is when the wheels in his head start spinning. I'm sure he wondered why we were letting him get so close.
This is great, and nobody seems to care that I'm getting messy.
Mmmmm...so slimy and scrumptious. It feels great in my fingers.
Tastes pretty good too!
I love you cake! Where have you been all my life. Why have we not met before?
Look, no hands!
This is soooo awesome! I can't believe I get to do this. Bwa ha ha ha ha!
I'm so messy, and so cute. He threw most of the missing part on the floor.
Not so happy that his cake is gone and he has to be hosed off. "Cake? Where did you go?"
Here he is trying to figure out what was in the package and why we had covered it in paper. Once he saw the toy inside he had a huge grin and tried to kiss it.
Here is his new baby, Cornelius Ben. We got Evan a Cabbage Patch that looked like him for his 1st birthday, so we got one for Kyle too. The hair is a little dark, but not bad.
He loved his Tonka truck from Grandma and Grandpa Warning.
This was his gift from Grandma and Grandpa Stucki. He was so excited to walk behind it. Now he can go even faster, and not worry as much about falling.
Evan was also very excited about the gifts. He opened most of them for Kyle, but said they were all for Kyle and did a pretty good job letting Kyle play with them. I think he claimed this gift from Jon and Gayle for himself though. Quite the haul for only being 1.
This is the best part of the day with Kyle. The part where he sleeps. He has a molar trying to come through (or at least it looks like it) and he is really grouchy a lot of the time. We treasure the sleeping moments lately.
He did decide to try to take care of Evan's doll one day. He was trying to get him in the little baby cradle, and when he couldn't figure it out (it was upside down) he walked the baby over to the gate to the bathroom and tossed him in. I guess he had given up on parenting.
We got a Wii for our anniversary (I know, so romantic). Brandon was very surprised that I wanted to get it, but we love it. As you can see Evan loves it too (more than he enjoys wearing pants). For those of you Wii players out there, they are playing cow racing. I don't think Brandon was trying very hard.
It is disgusting how much dirt there is on the deck. I never realize it until we begin the pressure washing. Much improved. We still have to reseal it, but that will come this weekend probably.
Here is Brandon, working hard in the rain. Go figure we picked the worst day of the week to do it, but he would have been wet anyway (or at least that was what I told him before he went out).
Brandon also made cute little planter boxes for the deck with my dad. We now have 6 of them with various flowers in them. Evan picked snapdragons as his flower (he thought dragons sounded "awesome"). We have geraniums, violas, and trailing lobelia, plus one full of herbs.
All the projects and trips to Lowe's and Home Depot have exhausted the boys. I love how there heads are tipped the same way, and somehow they always are when they fall asleep in the car.
