Happy Valentines Day!!

No pictures for me today..I know I am bad. We choose to video tape it this year and well I can never upload the videos. . .

We did do our traditional Valentine Man for Kyson. We got a kick out of watching him go for that box. Our thing is that you have Dad ring the doorbell and the kiddos all run to the door. Well when they go for the box . . .It moves!! Everytime Kyson went to grab it Kurt tugged on the string and he just stood straight up and looked at me. He didn't know what to think of it. But he eventually got the box and alll the goodies inside.

Kyson's Grandma and Grandpa Hahn spent the morning with us. As well as his Uncle Buggy and Auntie Sessy. (Gregory and Chelsea) Kunkle and Ti Ti came a bit later. He sure was spoiled that day. Tons of goodies and some toys. Grandma got him a Buzz lightyear gun. She thought the balls would be soft...not so much. We all had a ball throwing war in the front room. Some walking away with welts. ha ha. But Kyson loves it. Him and his daddy target practice with it. And Kyson is pretty good! You just have to help him pull the trigger. He also got a bucket of army men to shoot up. Kunkle and Ti Ti got him his first Mr. Potatoe head which he loves because he thinks it looks like the one from Toy Story.

Mom and dad got him a new outfit and shoes...plus some candy.

Mummo and Pappa also did the Valentines man and I believe Caden caught the box this year. Mummo kept it simple since she has 15 grandkids..Chocolate and fruit snacks for all and a shirt for the youngest ones.

I myself was spoiled with a Pandora bracelet that Kurtis designed for me. And an evening out to The Keg. YUM!! After dinner it was homeward bound since Kyson spiked a fever at his grandmas. His 2 year molars. To my surprise..I got a HUGE chocolate chip cookie and a bottle of martinellis waiting for me when I got home. Thank you so much babe!! It was another amazing Valentines. What do you get a guy for Valentines? I never know..so Kurtis got family pictures framed for his office, candy, a shirt and a new cd.

Happy Valentines Day to all those in my life. I LOVE YOU ALL!!

2 Year Well Visit

Officially Two Years Old
and that means a visit to the pediatrician.
Kyson's Stats
Weighs 29.25 Pounds (75%-tile)
Length 33.75 inches tall (25%-tile)
He is talking SO MUCH! Making 2-3 word sentences and pretty much copying anything Kurtis and I say. He counts to Three!! But it takes some coaching. The list of words he says would take a long time and some thinking so I will just say some of my favorites.
Bopple- Means Apple
Salsa- Means Apple Sauce
Issue- Means Tissue
Corn- Means Popcorn
He has put his shoes on ALL BY HIMSELF twice. :0)
Still no interest in the potty. He likes to sit on it only if you keep his pants on. Nice right??
He is also still in his Crib and no plans in the near future to move him. He is quite content in there. I am honestly VERY scared to start potty training and moving him into a big boy bed. That is one milestone mom is NOT excited about! I know I should be about diapers..but I'm not. Hard to explain.

Here are the most Recent Family Pictures!! ENJOY!!








I love this one..Kyson just went up behind Kurtis and hugged him.
Thankfully the photographer was quick!
No Well Visit for a WHOLE YEAR!! I wonder how much he will change then...
