Kason's language

Lately I post more on Instagram because it is easier but I had to be sure to write some of Kason's words down for posterity. He is a very active little one and half year old! Holy smokes! The kid loves to go to the park and play with friends. He thinks throwing sand is a part of socializing...poor friends! He also knows the dangerous areas of the park and will purposely play there is freak me out. He loves to yell "MOM" and dangle his leg over the edge. I swear, he is a turkey! He is a good boy though. He loves, loves Katie and Kellen. He hates to drop them off at school. He cries for them and yells out their name as if they will come running back. Poor guy.

Here is his vocabulary so far:
Bird
fish
bubba (bubbles)
wawa (water)
Nana (Katie)
Duh (Kellen)
Mama
Dada
Nana (Banana)
Gamama (Grandma)
cheap,cheap (bird sounds)
pees (please)
um hm (Love you)
cheese
no, no, no
ducca ducca ducca (tickle)


We love our little guy and are glad he joined our family. I am also glad that he is napping right now because he totally needs a nap!

Wall climbing at Freestone

I really try to find things for the kids to do while they are on spring break. This year we decided to go rock climbing at the recreational center.

Katie has always been a great climber. 

Kellen loves to climb as high as he can. Both kids are awesome at climbing.

Bath time in the sink!

Big guy loves to play in water, anywhere! The other day he was so dirty that we gave him a bath in the sink. He was too dirty to be transferred upstairs. He loved to play in water!!!

Is this not he happiest little face!

Looking so manly.

Karate, airplanes and small little brothers

He's just manly in his cozy dinosaur outfit.

Katie is such a great babysitter. She is also wearing a skirt that she made herself with fabric from Grandma.

Kellen got to try out karate for a little bit. He really liked it. Sadly, we have not gone back but he did get a cool outfit.

Kason loves to swing at the park!

Kason loves his little saucer. 

Kellen was teaching the neighbors to make awesome paper airplanes. They set up a little airplane making station on the front porch. They then took their planes to the park and set them free.

One more handsome picture.

Golf Cart Fun

Katie's friend Kali has a golf cart and Kali loves to drive over to our street to take the kids for rides. We have a park with some hills that the kids use as a make shift roller coaster on Sundays after church. The kids have a blast!

Just a cute picture of a young man.

Kellen and other pics....

Kason enjoying some yummy blueberry bananas.

This kid is kinda dirty....but so cute!

Hello!!!!

Kellen was determined to dig the hole for our trampoline in the backyard. He enlisted his friends to help him too. They decided to fill it up with water and made a pool instead. They had a blast!

All the neighborhood boys.

What a cute little running partner! He is so snugly!!

San Diego June 2016...more

This past summer we ran over to San Diego for a quick get away before our summer got super busy with girls camp and other activities. We camped at our favorite spot too. Here are a couple of pictures.

Hanging out on the sand with my sun bathing handsome man.

Yeah baby!

Little man all tuckered out hanging with brother. Kellen is awfully cozy, I can see why Kason fell asleep.

Mormon Battalion!!! Here we are again to tour the awesome Mormon Battalion museum. We go every time we go to San Diego. We still love it tho!

Kellen got to be one of the Mormon Battalion soldiers during the tour. He looked so manly!

We even got our picture taken with an "antique" camera. It was so fun!

Discovering sand for the first time. He loved it!

Digging a hole together.

Kellen with his head in the sand.

Two very handsome men hanging out together!

Kellen dug a huge hole and invited Kason to come for a visit. 

Kason fell asleep while drinking his cold milk. I love when I get to hold my littles while they sleep. Look at those lashes!

My pretty little princess, Katie!

Kason was helping us pack up and go.

We were the only people in this section of the campground without an RV. We had a nice warm tent :)

Sometimes you need to sit on Grandma Lyle's cozy carpet with your pants on your head.
