Happy Birthday(s) and Anniversary

Today is my Grandparents Anniversary. Keeping them both in my thoughts today:

We miss you Grandpa...may you RIP:














It is also my brother's birthday:

Happy Birthday Bubba.. Hope you're day is extra special:


















And 3 days ago, my Lil guy turned 3 months old.  STOP THE TIME!!!:

Mommy stealing some snuggle time:


















Here's a glimpse of some of the other fun things we've been doing.
Big Brudder Mastered his bike riding!! He started off on the little trike and then told Daddy he wanted to ride his big boy bike, which he very rarely wants to do since we bought it for him.  He got on it and off he flew!

A sweaty headed handsome big brother:

Snuggle time..sorry it's blurry but I just love how Kyler has "taken Kolton under his wing" here:

Brother play time. Kolton sitting in an exer-saucer and LOVING it. He did awesome sitting up and I put the sheep in the to help support him and he ends up taking the sheep out to chew on and not needing the support:

In Kolton's crib bonding watching the fish, octopus, starfish and sea critters that the projector is playing: 

He's such a happy boy!:

Water time! We went to a local park that has a couple of water parks inside of it for the boys to cool off.  Kyler sits on one of the gators that shoots water out and 2 girls run over to him.


Waiting on the pelican to drop water on him:

When we were done, I changed the boys into dry clothes for the ride home as I knew they would crash out.  Kolton was hungry and Kyler asked if he could give him a bottle so I could change. My big boy is growing up!  It was so sweet so I had to take a picture of my boys.


















Home Depot has a kids workshop on the first Saturday of every month. I wanted to take Kyler so we loaded up and he was SO excited that he got to actually make something where HE could hammer. And he got this super cute apron with his name on it and after he completed his project, they gave him a pin to put on it. Every time he goes, he gets to add a pin to his collection.  Guess you know where you can find us every 1st Saturday of the month now:

Coloring his cork board.  He ended up getting a certificate which I put on the board and hung in his room:

Oh how can you not smile at these two?!  Big brother giving his baby kisses:

Kolton SO excited that his rocking chair is getting painted!  Kyler has a rocking chair and it was already painted red...which coincidentally his birthstone is red, so when we were trying to decide what color to paint Kolton's chair, we came up with green for his birthstone.  We had some green left over (that we recently discovered in the cleaned out garage) which worked perfectly.

Kyler wanted to paint his brother's chair:

Oh no! ~  Kyler's turning into the Incredible Hulk!:

I felt bad as the chair painting was my idea and I wanted to do it but I ended up inside feeding a hungry Lil guy who got a belly full and passed out on me so I stayed snuggling him while the big boys painted:

The finished, but still drying, project.  I plan on bringing it in and taking a picture of the boys sitting side by side in their rockers.  Hopefully my picture will turn out how I envision it:

And while we were in the garage, Daddy climbed up in the attic and brought down what was once Kyler's Jumparoo for Kolton to now enjoy.  The funny part is...Kyler saw it and asked "where's the monkey"?  My mind was blown as when Kyler was last in this jumaproo he was one..or just under. How does he remember the monkey??!!  But he's right!  The seat is a monkey and I had already had that washed and put up in Kolton's closet, so Kyler didn't even see it laying around to know.  We grabbed some Lysol cleaner and went to town and put it together and now we have One Happy Boy to be bouncing away! And yes, he is sitting up all by himself, nothing supporting him other than the seat itself..and his feet don't touch the ground yet, even on the lowest level.  All of those crunches he keeps doing it paying off!

Kolton looking at the parrot flying above his head that Kyler just swatted at and now thinking "I'll get you my pretty"!  LOL:
