What in the world??

What am I going to do with Kyle??? He just woke up from his "nap" - termed loosely since he never went to sleep - and he has a gigantic HOLE in the knee of his jammies!!! This kid is causing me to go pre-maturely gray. He has already "re-decorated" the nursery by pulling off his wallpaper border, he has managed to stain anything and everything that touches his person by drooling, spitting or throwing stuff, he has proven that he knows how to use his teeth for things other than chewing his food, ruined WOODEN toys that used to be MINE and went through my brother, Alek and a few friends in between (in other words, toys that lasted for 30 yrs until now) and now he is shredding clothes that could be either sold or passed on to #3. Oh well, I guess I will have to go shopping now...
Enjoy the pics...

Stripping...

Alek has been doing it for a while and now Kyle knows how to do it. Just mention the word "bath" and the clothes start flying!!!

Kyle eats with a spoon!

But what a mess he is!!!

He is growing so fast. And he just talks and talks and talks. He runs, climbs, jumps, dances and stomps his feet when he is throwing a tantrum (which is really cute - for now). It amazes me how much he has changed in just 18 months....

Beautiful Warm Winter Days...

Well it's been a pretty mild winter here so far. It was 79 degrees today, though they say we are getting a cold front tonight and it will be 44 degrees for a high tomorrow. But the boys enjoyed playing outside in this nice weather...

Happy Anniversary Baby!

It's been 6 wonderful years of married bliss to my favorite husband. Thank you for blessing me with 2 beautiful boys and being a wonderful husband and a loving father. I couldn't have dreamed up a better mate for myself. My love only grows stronger with time. Cheers to us, our family and our future!

Christmas Day

Memaw and Pepaw came up from Lake Jackson to spend Christmas Day with us. The boys LOVED the toys that Santa brought them, though Kyle wasn't quite sure what to think when he first came out of his room.


Santa brought Alek a huge firetruck and a huge garbage truck, along with other assorted items.


Kyle got the "Pooh train" and a "fort" along with other things as well. Andy (and the family) got a Nintendo Wii from Santa and I got a waffle maker and several books for me to read!
Of course the grandparents, Uncle Erik and Aunts Lisa & Julia showered them with toys, so now I get to go figure out a way to organize the toy room!!
Grandmama, Mike, Aunt Julia, Erik and Amanda joined us for Christmas lunch and by the end of the day we were all wiped out!
It was a great day and we hope everybody had a great Christmas as well!

Christmas Eve

Sorry I haven't blogged. I have been busy, tired, caught up in the story of a great book...
But alas, here are some Christmas pictures! We had a great Christmas Eve. We went down to Arlington to have dinner with Grandmama and Mike and Mike's family.
Kyle would rather be playing...
