Kyle at 16 months

Here are a few things I want to make sure I remember about Kyle.
1. His two favorite songs are “If You’re Happy and You Know It” (the stomp your feet verse) and “Old MacDonald” (he loves to sing E, I, E, I, over and over).
2. He can drink out of a regular cup, but is a little messy.
3. He loves ice.
4. He likes to climb on tables and chairs, but is not allowed.
5. He knows that cows say moo and chickens say cluck, cluck.
6. He loves to eat fruit (blueberries, strawberries, bananas, apples, peaches).
7. I think that he beleives all backyards should have dogs in them. (I think this because he asks where the dog is if there is not one in the yard.)

I'm sure if you are on Facebook, you have already seen this, but I just had to post it on the blog too.

Kyle recognizes trucks

Jay went to Dickies for lunch with a friend the other day. Kyle saw a truck and said "vroom, vroom."

I almost forgort. Kyle can feed himself with a spoon! I tried to get a video of this amazing event, but of course, when the cammera comes out the spoon and bowl are thrown on the floor. The effect was very dramatic, but not what I was going for.

Kyle is such a cute kid. He loves to walk backwards and laugh as I "chase" him threatening to tickle him. He also likes to go down the slide on his stomach. His two favorite books are Bubbles, Bubbles and a specific book about farm animals. He loves playing outside, especially in the sandbox.

April 16th

Last Friday we went to Fort Worth. The Botanical Gardens were great and Kyle loved walking around. He was very intrigued by the water features. Then we went to the Amon Carter Mueseum. Kyle found his echo there! The staff was very understanding.
I'll ask Jay to post some pictures.

Kyle is quite the little chatterbox these days. He knows several words. His favorite these days seems to be milk. (Probably because he always get a reaction when he says it.) He uses it when he wants milk, is hungry, or doesn't want to be put down for bed. He also says duck, dada, dog, light, book, look, and that. He knows a few other words but doesn't say them consistently (ball and snack are the only ones I can think of right now).


Kyle walks more than he crawls and wants to explore everything. We are having a lot of fun watching him discover new things. He loves to play peek-a-boo and squishes his hands over his eyes when he wants to play. I'll see if we can get a picture of it. Usually when we pull out the camera, Kyle stops what he's doing and reaches for it.

Kyle's One

Here are some pictures from Kyle's birthday.  We all had a great time.  Had his first cake and he definitely prefers the yellow to the chocolate.

Walking

Well Kyle started walking again, but this time he's enjoying it. He really didn't have the confidence to let go of our hands before last weekend but now it's his favorite game.
