UPDATES

2009-05-13T07:42:00.000-07:00

Just wanted to update you on things:

Kyle is 17 months old and has 10 teeth! This can be dangerous at times!
He is talking like crazy, some of it we can understand and some we can not. He loves football and golf clubs and these are usually the first words out of his mouth in the morning. He loves to read books and play outside. He is growing very fast. We are really enjoying watching him grow and learn new things. He is fast and quick to tell you "no" when you ask him any question. He really is a bundle of joy and Chris and I are so grateful for the gift of him to us. I pray every day that we become the best parents we can be and that God will bless our family.

2009-04-29T18:35:00.000-07:00

Not sure if I want to show this, it shows me being hit in the mouth by the golf clubs. Kyle loves his golf clubs but they can be dangerous.Please dont laugh too hard and please feel sorry for me!!!

Kyle is a Cowboy!!!!!!

Saturday we went with Grandpa Ray to the Ft. Worth Fat Stock Show and Rodeo. Kyle had a blast! We saw pigs, sheep, horses and thousands of cows. This is a picture of Kyle sitting on top of a rather large horse. There was a whole team of handlers to help the kids when they got on top of the horse. One girl was responsible for quickly putting the scarf around his neck while another placed the cowboy hat on top of his head. It was an upset that he allowed the hat to stay on his head as he generally doesn't like things on his head. I think he was so shocked by the whole scene that he didn't realize he had anything on his head.

Thanks to Grandpa Ray, Sandi, Taylor and Mallory for a great day!

Latest of Kyle
