Tooth #10

Yep, you heard me right...his 10th tooth is in today!  One right after another, like there's no tomorrow!  I wouldn't have even known that he got a new one today, he is SO good about it!!!  When I brush his teeth before bed, I make sure to get a good look around in there to see what's new.  Tonight, it was a new tooth looking at me!  :)

Last night I was "spying" on Josh reading to Kyle before bed.  The book had flowers on the page they were reading, and Kyle was leaning forward to smell the flowers.  He would sniff, and lean back, and then lean forward to sniff again.  It was SO CUTE!!!!  Every day gets more fun with this little guy!  :)  Kyle always stops to smell the flowers, as demonstrated with our roses in our backyard in the following picture.  :)

 

Tonight I asked Kyle what the duck says, and he responded with, "Ga, ga, ga, ga."  LOL  So stinking cute!  He really thought he was quacking...he'll get it down soon enough.  :)  He learns SO fast, and has new words and new "tricks" every day.  He "dances", which is him bouncing at the knees.  I can't help but giggle, it is so cute!  He likes to play "chase" with me, where we run around the house chasing each other (giggling the whole time of course), and we end up jumping on a big pillow on the floor in his bedroom.  We play "hide and seek", where I will act like he should chase me...I go in his room and say "where's mommy?"....and hide behind his door.  When he comes in I gently pop out and say "peek a boo".  Kyle laughs and runs away.  I try to be careful to not scare him, even though he laughs every time, sometimes I can tell that I startled him.  After about 3 times of me hiding behind his door today, he would come and look for me behind his door when I went hiding.  :)

Before bed tonight Kyle gave me butterfly kisses, eskimo kisses, and kisses on the mouth.  For his mouth kisses he puckers his lips in a fishy face and then pops them out so they make a kissing sound.  I can't help it...everything he does is the cutest thing I've ever seen!  :)

Kyle is all boy!!  He loves to play outside...especially in the rocks, dirt, and sand!  He has discovered in the last couple days that it is great fun to get handfuls of dirt, sand, or pebbles (whatever he can get his hands on, really), and throw them up in the air.  What a mess!  But, he has so much fun doing it.  :)  Today he was taking handfuls of pebbles and throwing them in the street.  He thought it was his mission in life to throw the rocks in the road...why I have no idea, but he would have done it for an hour I'm sure, if I had let him.  LOL  Needless to say, we never miss a bath in this house!  Ha, ha!

Motherhood is so exciting.  New adventures every day!  I have been a little under the weather the last couple days, and that is really the hardest part.  It's hard being sick when you have a little one to take care of and chase around.  There's no one to "call in sick" to, unfortunately.  But, I'm getting through it, and trying to have as much fun as I can in the process.  :)
