All Tuckered Out

Wow, I had no idea how much a 15 month old could destroy a home. This little guy is a tornado and he has found a partener in crime. Any drawer, door, cabinet left open will be emptied and drug from room to room! All dirty clothes are pulled out and dispersed throughout the house. The more toys in all rooms but his own seems to be best. After a good run the two tuckered out. Don't worry, they'll be up in no time and ready for round two!!

A Dog as a Nanny?



To be honest I never understood how a dog for a nanny made any sense in Peter Pan. To me the movie always represented the 'real' world colliding with the world in a child's imagination. And the dog as a nanny made no sense as part of the real world. So it just never fit to me. I always thought.... how absurd!




But then I got my first family dog...... Gus. And wouldn't ya know it, he's the perfect nanny! LOL Kai and Gus entertain eachother all day long. Gus follows Kai around making sure he knows what is up. Gus has to know where Kai is at all times. At the end of the night when I say it's bath time, Gus will lead Kai back to the bathroom! They are just too cute!! So I guess a dog as a nanny isn't THAT absurd!! ha ha

Story Time

So I discovered this great little story time at Barnes Noble. They do it once a week and give out free treats!! The story lady reads a couple of books and then gives them a stamp on their hand and some goodies. Kai couldn't figure out the stamp on the hand... he kept pinching it trying figure it out!! lol It was pretty cute. You can see his little cool whip mustache from the sherbert drink as he downs his cookie!

Back Off Clown!

Kai got to go to his first circus today!!! I think you can tell what was NOT his favorite. I asked the clown to hold Kai for a picture and he wasn't having any of that!

Let's Go Outside

Most people who are around me know that I am always reading about what is the best things for raising a kid. There are so many fads of the best way to do it you would think I would get tired of reading some new idea every day. But I don't. A little while ago I read a little blurp in a parenting magazine about making sure you take your child outside to play at least once a day. It's suppose to be good for their creativity and helps them to enjoy their enviroment. So I started doing it and this has to be one of Kai's favorite parts of the day. He just LOVES to play in the dirt, make blocks from bricks, or just check out the things around him. He's just so dang cute while doing it I thought I would share some photos.
