I'm a Big Boy Now!

We were on the floor playing tonight when Mr. Kyler decided that he is DONE with the "baby stuff" and is more than ready to get movin' and groovin'. While playing with his toys, he decides to climb up on one and stand!! YES... I said STAND! But that wasn't enough. He would climb over my legs to get to his toys. He figured there was NOTHING stopping him and wouldn't give me time to move. It was too funny.

But THEN, he crawls over to me and crawled right up me into a standing position!!! I'm not sure how that happens, especially since I said that I REFUSED to let my child grow up! Oh but wait, it doesn't stop there. He's been sitting up in his bed the past few nights and head-butting the railing because he wants out. So with him now crawling and climbing up things, we dropped the crib down.

I really thought I said I wasn't going to let him grow. Hmmmm, someone must not have listened to Mommy very well. Not to mention that my 8 month old is too tall for any 6-9 month old clothes and some of the 12 months are fluds on him too so he's pushing 18 month clothing! Did I mention UGH yet?!

I also have been working on him saying Mommy. He thinks "Mommy" is a funny word as every time I say: "say Mommy", he giggles but then he'll say "mmmmm". So we're getting there. I know; I know.. all of you are going to tell me "don't rush it cause then you wont get them to stop talking", but just remember, you all were here once too! HA! ;-D

I have more pictures to post later of him standing and playing. But these were the ones that I was able to download so far. Mr. Kyler didn't want to go to bed as he wasn't done playing and climbing so I had to put my attention on that instead! But I promise I will add them later.

OH how Mommy wants to gobble him up all the time!:

This was a picture of his boo-boo bite from daycare..looks better here:


This is called "The Uncle Bob". We call it that because Uncle Bob has curly hair when it gets long and looks like lil man has "a curl"! If you look close enough you can see the tail / curl (look into the blue of Chris' shirt):

Kyler's 1st Boo-Boo

Kyler got his first Boo-Boo today at daycare. ;-D
He's a tough lil man...just as long as he doesn't pick up bad habbits.

See the purple on his eye lid too? I'll try to get a better picture later. This was taken via cell phone:


~~OH; it's a bite mark, I left that out..sorry.

Seepy Seeping; Brusha Brushing & Splish Splash...

This is Kyler's new way of Seepy Seeping! Butt in the air and snuggeling his blankey:





Kyler brusha brushing his teefers:




Kyler has a new bathtub and loves to Splish Splash into. I think Kady loved it too. It quacks it you squeeze its beak. Sorry some of the pictures are out of focus, not sure why.

Peek-A-Boo......

....my teefers are coming through!

You can see the tops of his teeth coming through on both sides at the bottom center. You can definitely feel them!



Playing in his room:


On The Move

Kyler has decided that he is tired of being stationary, so he's decided it's time to crawl and now he's Movin' and Grovin'! Here's a little clip from this morning of him chasing after Kady. Although the video I took of him yesterday I can't seem to download--that was his actual first time crawling. But it's close enough that this will count too.



And we'll since he "worked up a sweat" HAHA, I decided to treat him to his 1st popsicle. Don't fret Mom's and Gramma's...it's sugar free and he didn't have that much of it. And man did he Scream when I took it away!!

Umm this stuff is good!


Brain Freeze!


Look at how handsome I am!

Cutting Teeth

Kyler is cutting his first 2 teeth so he has been fighting a cold that goes along with it. As of yesterday, they started popping through. You can see and feel them.

Wednesday and Thursday he was running a fever and this is him snuggling his daddy.


He was starting to feel a little better here:
His shirt says: Life Begins at Hooters!




I took him outside to get some fresh air to make him feel better:


Just like Daddy, cool glasses and a TV remote.
(I promise my bed isn't always unmade...although the history of the pictures seems to show that, but it really isn't):

Kyler's 1st Rodeo

Kyler falling asleep in the Jumparoo while still jumping;


Ummm which one do I play with now?:


Hey! Are you talking to me?!:


"Mooom, will my teefers look like this"?!:


Yesterday I took a day off from work and we headed to the rodeo. We dressed Kyler up for it in an outfit that was sooo cute, but his long legs made it way to short on him. But he wore it like a Champ anyways.



Our first stop was to see Gramma and drop Kady off at her house. Then we headed to the parade to meet up with my cousin and 2 of her boys. It was the first time that Kyler and Rylan met. Kyler wanted his feet, it was cute!

It was very windy out, but a nice day:


My cousin Kim with her 2 month old Rylan:



We got to see the Budweiser Clydesdale Horses. They were beautiful! They start ranging at 15 hands high...to the non-horse person, that is from hoof to shoulder, 6 foot high. They were amazing to watch perform during the rodeo as well.

During the parade:


Performing during the rodeo:


After the parade we headed to the rodeo grounds and met up with Gramma again. She had to show her lil' man off and then we left her to work. We headed out of the office and went and found some things to get into. Daddy bought Kyler his very own Cowboy Hat.

What a poser!:


Kyler got to ride his very first pony. He loved it at first and then decided he didn't want to be on the pony anymore. But he did pose for us as long as the pony wasn't moving.

Riding for the 1st time:





Side note to my brother and sister-in-law, I know you both are so sad that you missed the pony handler. I know you will probably need some counseling because you missed him this time. I promise, there will be more festivities where you will get to see him again! HA!!

Cheesing at Gramma showing off his hat!:


As far as the rodeo, Kyler did awesome during the shoot out. It didn't even phase him. In fact, he was falling asleep towards the end of the skit. He slept mostly the thru the entire rodeo. He woke just before the bull rides. Once the rodeo was over we went to Gramma's house and let Kyler stretch his legs and relax a bit while we were waiting on Gramma to get off.



Gramma rushed home and found Kyler on her carpet doing his darnedest to crawl. As a matter of fact, he moved his knees forward once and we all were there to witness it. He was also trying to sit up from a kneeling position. Which as of today he has mastered. Grandma and Grandpa Great came over for a few. It made her feel a little better to get out of the house after not feeling so well.

We then headed to dinner where Kyler was a "Sport Model" as his Gramma calls him and was flirting with the women and one lady came over and gave him a stuffed bear that her Grand-daughter had just won for her.

By the way, the Bear is Green with a Yellow belly, so I first suggested that we call him Green Bay or Packers... However, Brett took the winners circle. For those of you who don't know the humor in that. Chris looks like Brett Favre and has been mistaken for him on several occasions. And well, Brett used to be a Green Bay Packer and now you're on the same page and can figure the rest out. Ha!

(I'll have to take a pix of the bear and post it, I thought I had one but must have missed it)

Funny Faces

Kyler is starting to develop his own personality more and more everyday. He's funny and is learning that if you laugh at him, he'll continue doing whatever it was that made you laugh.

This morning after getting up from our morning "snoogle time"; I was trying to take some pictures of him up on his knees. When he would look at me and I would say smile for mommy, he'd give me one of these looks!








Don't you just want to gobble him up?!




Kyler soo wanting to crawl!






Kyler loves his Kady:




Trying to crawl to his Kady:


Teefers coming thru:
