11 months and handsome as ever.

























Never leave your child alone for a second! That top picture would be Kylan discovering the joys of Toilet paper. Boy did he have fun. The second pic is of Kylan discovering that even though TP is fun to play with, it does not taste so good.

11 months and what a little walker.

He often walks with his hands clasped now, or he walks clapping. (6 pic from top is of him clapping) He actually learned to clap his hands at his first brewers game this year (April 20th I think.) We have been to a couple of games and he still enjoys them (especially getting the attention of the people around us.) Oh yeah--and when the brewers hit a home run---he is fascinated by the fireworks.
He also went to his first tailgate before a Brewer game. Ky had fun eating with Grandpa. It was a good time. We saw Cousin Elizabeth from Nebraska and said goodbye to Cousin Dr. Paul. Cousin Dr. Paul is receiving his medical degree next week and then moving out to San Diego. We will miss him.

Kylan has also learned how to making farting noises with his mouth. He is very proud. He will walk up to you and put his mouth on your arm/face/leg and blow. What a boy!

He loves being outside and now his new walking skills makes the outside so much more exciting. He tries to eat the plants and trees. BLAH! We try to get him to ride his trike, but he would rather push it.

His vocab continues to expand. He now says "Bread" and "MAMA" quite regularly. It was pretty cool--the other day we were taking a walk and there was a man across the street walking two dogs. Kylan started saying "BEAR! BEAR" Then he said "HI BEAR!" (FYI--our dog's name is bear.) He is a pretty smart kid!

Garage sale season has begun! YEAH! I just bought a "Super Gate" at one the other day, so now I am able to confine Ky to the family room. This gives me a bit more sanity during the day. Now if we can just find a cheap entertainments center with doors. (to keep little fingers off the electronics. Ky already broke the sound knob on the stereo.) We also bought the neat trike you see in the pics up top. It converts from a rocker to a tricycle that we can push (until he is ready to push himself.) I also picked him up a big bag of trucks for $2 and lots of play clothes for .10 to .25 each. Now that he is old enough to play outside I don't want him wrecking his nice outfits--so play clothes come in very handy. Did I mention I love garage saling! YEAH! (I also bought Rob a brand new suitcase for $8.)
Let's see I forgot to mention the pics of Aidan, Mark and Gianna. We went over to play with our Godson (Aidan) and had some fun. We (the adults) learned though it is better to get the kids together earlier in the day and to do things outdoors--so there is less mess indoors.
So that is all I have for now. Can you believe that Ky is almost 1 year old! I can hardly believe it! I plan to post at least once more before the big party!
Have a good one!
