Our sweet baby Kyle turned one yesterday! I can not believe it has been a year since we brought this precious little boy into the world. Who knew what we were missing in our family. Kyle has brought sunshine to our home and family. He is such a sweet, cuddly little angel. His dark brown eyes and huge smile radiate the room when he looks at you. It is so amazing how you find a whole new kind of love when your second child is born. I love him just as much, but differently than Conner. He is his own little star in our family. The morning of his birthday I went into his room to pick him up and instead of singing "you are my sunshine," I sang, "happy Birthday." He smiled so big and swede back and forth in my arms as if he was dancing. Here are five things I love about Kyle.
1. His loving spirit. Kyle loves everyone. He is so patient with his brother and loves him so much. He looks at everyone as if he has known them forever and smiles so big.
2. His beautiful brown hair with soft curls in the back.
3. He wants everyone to be happy all the time. Kyle wants everyone around him to be happy. When his brother is in time out he even goes over to make sure Conner is okay and stands right by him until he gets out. His heart is so compassionate.
4. He loves to play, play, play! He is not one to watch T.V. or sit for any period of time. He wanders around all day quietly finding things to play with and is so inquisitive about it all. He can sit and figure out how to put something into something else forever and never get bored or give up. He is going to be our little engineer.
5. The last thing I love about Kyle is he is a snuggler. He loves to be held and cuddled. The more kisses the better. Kyle is a very affectionate boy. Some say "mamas boy," but he is just a plain lovers boy.
For his birthday we had a pumpkin party and all his friends dressed up. He loved it!
Happy Birthday Kyle we love you soooo much.
Mom, Dad, and Conner

All the little boys
This past week the boys and I, Cami and my mom took a trip to Conroe. Conroe is one of my boys favorite places to go because Mason lives there, you know. We were also going so we could spend the day with my Pappy.
We left Tuesday at 1. I figured that would be the perfect time because the boys could nap on the way. Well, Kyle slept, but Conner was too excited. When we got to Laure's house my Pappy was there. My Uncle dropped him off for a visit with us. Conner and Kyle gave Pappy hugs and Kisses and then were off to play. Kyle however loved Pappy and they spent some real quality time together. He even tried to climb in the car with him when it was time for him to go home. Pappy loved it and said it made his year. We really enjoyed our visit.
The next day Conner had his happy visit at the dentist. He is going to go to a pediatric office in Conroe. I was nervous about how he would do since he does'nt even like me to brush his teeth. He amazed me however and was wonderful. He is growing up so much and it really shows. It did help though that they had a dino with real teeth that he could brush himself. Oh, and he got a balloon!
Later that day we all drove home. It POURED down rain the entire way. Conner kept looking out the window saying, "Its Dark, T rex coming." " Drive faster mommy." He is so funny.

Funny Things
It has been awhile since I have blogged. So many cute and funny things have happened.
The boys are starting to really enjoy each others company, which is heartwarming to me since I was questioning if this would ever happen.
The other day I laid Kyle down for his midmorning nap, about ten minutes passed and Conner looked around noticing that Kyle was not in sight. He then asked me, "Where’d Kyle go?" I told him that Kyle had laid down for a nap. He started to cry saying, " NOO Peanut, Peanuttttt. I need my Peanut." I reassured him that Kyle would be up in awhile and smiled inside.
Kyle is really coming into his own. He is a much softer spoken child which is such a contrast to Conner that it has taken a little longer to learn all about him. He loves to be cuddled and held all day. He adores his brother and daddy. The other day we were outside at B's house and Kyle walked over to Conner and tried to hug and kiss him out of the blue. Of course it was more like a wet lick than anything, but Conner laughed and returned the kiss. He tries to do everything his big brother
does.
One more quick story is as some of you know Conner lives and breathes dinosaurs. About a month ago the costume express catalog came in and I was flipping through. There was a page totally devoted to Dinos. I showed Conner and asked him which one did the want to dress up as for Kyle’s party and Halloween. He pointed to the T Rex. I really like to Triceratops and tried to steer him towards it. I thought the t rex was so common. He kept telling me however he wanted to be a T Rex and would walk around roaring like one. Well, I ordered the triceratops anyway thinking that I dino costume is a dino costume and he will be excited anyway. Two weeks went by and the costume arrived. I told Conner to come here his Dino costume was in. He was soooo excited jumping up and down and roaring. I opened the box and began to unravel the triceratops. He took one look at it and big tears rolled down his face. He said, "No mommy, T Rex, T rex." He would even put it on. He cried and kept saying, "I be T Rex." I felt terrible. Even though I didn’t want him to think he can cry and get what he wants I returned the costume and ordered the T REx. I mean, he DID tell me all along he wanted to be a T REX!!!!
