Fun times in Wichita

Kellen and Mom had to go to Phoenix for Kellen's doctor appointment so I got to stay in Wichita a couple extra days. Mom told me that they were going to the doctor but she didn't tell me she was getting on an airplane and gonna be gone for 4 days. Everytime I talked to her I asked "Are you still at the doctor??"But I had so much fun playing with my cousins and getting to spend the night at my Aunt "Pretty's" house. They can go back to the doctor anytime as long as I get to spend more time with my cousins!!

Kellen and I splashing around in Grandma's bathtub. We love this tub cause there is no texture on the bottom and we are able to slide around like crazy. Sometimes Kellen gets so excited he slides right off his bottom and ends up face first in the water. But I always keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't drink too much water!!
Easton came over and played with me. We both thought we were so funny trying on the Mr. Potato Head accessories!! This picture of Easton is priceless!!

It was a little bit harder to keep my mustache on, I guess my nostriles are too big (thanks Dad!!)

Easton's Mom came over so my Grandma could help her make some Super Hero capes for Brett's birthday party. In case you didn't know my Grandma can fix anything!! (The last thing I was at the Gap, they had a book that had a ripped page and I brought it over to my Mom and told her not to worry cause my Grandma would fix it). Of course Easton and I had to try them out, we thought they were the coolest thing ever. Grandma said she was gonna make me one too... I hope I get a purple one!!

Kellen and I playing in the basement while Grandma made the capes. I sat at the easel forever writing everyone's names down. I am getting really good at writing my own name.

Brayden got a weight bench for Christmas and I have been watching him lift weights. When he's not around I like to lift weights too. Everyone thinks it's really funny watching me!! He better watch out before long my "guns" are gonna be bigger than his (it probably won't take long considering Brayden is a "stick boy" and it's impossible for him to gain weight!!!!)

Grandma and Kellen

We've got the best Grandma. She let's us wear our jammies all day, that is definitely the way to my heart.

Grandma even encouraged me to play in the rain with her. We both got all wet but we had a great time!!

I have become quite the snuggle buddy lately, I love crawling up on the couch and laying with my Mom.

Grandma bought this car ramp at the consignment sale not realizing that all the pieces were not there. But we found a way to still play with it. Kellen thought that it was too funny when the cars came flying at him.

Aunt Pretty took us to All-Star Sports. I had so much fun riding all the rides, I loved the go-karts, and the bumper boats. I had so much fun getting the big kids all wet!

Me and my Aunt Pretty!!

I even got to drive the go-kart by myself!!

We also got to go to Kourtnee's birthday party. While all the big kids were playing inside Konnor and I took over the slide and pool, we were having so much fun sliding down head first!!

This was my favorite way to go down. It wasn't as much fun at Grandma's house without the pool to catch me, I just ended up with my head in a pile of dirt!!

My brother just loves his Uncle P.

"MOM, KELLEN IS EATING MY WHY-FLYER, MAKE HIM STOP!!!!"

I thought I would tease him and offer him my toys not knowing that he could actually reach them and he took it right out of my hand and stuck it straight into his mouth. That's the last time I offer him one of my favorite toys in the car. Because he is too far away Mom couldn't even get it from him so I had to watch him play with my "Why-Flyers" until we got home... I was NOT happy about it!! After 10 days we were all ready to get home. I don't think that we have anymore trips planned for a long time. Although I keep asking my Mom if we can go see Grammy and Papi, so maybe she'll give in and take us to see them. I'll keep you updated!!

Summer Fun

We've been home for a couple weeks now, which is a long time for us, but we are leaving on Friday for a trip to Wichita and then Mom and Kellen are going to Phoenix for a doctors appointment (they are trying to keep it a secret from me but I overheard Mom talking to Michelle about it. I really really want to go but Mom says I can't).

Otherwise things have been going well here. Kellen is getting so big, I can't believe he is almost 1, he is crawling all over the place and getting into all my stuff. He also loves to get into Mom's plants, I am constantly having to pull him away from the plants and vacuum up the mess!! We are getting ready for the summer to end and school to start. This year I am going to preschool at the elementary school where I am going to be a peer-model for special needs kids. My neighbor Katie is going to be in my class and we get to ride the bus together!! I am so excited about it. I convinced Mom to let me have a princess backpack even though she tried her hardest to get me a different one!! Last night while Mom was out mowing the grass I got my little mower out and still wearing my tutu I followed Mom around the yard "helping" her. The neighbors thought it was the funniest thing.

School is getting ready to start so Addison and I got to go shopping for some new schools clothes. I love my Addison!!
Kellen is starting to play with all my toys. He really likes to play with my vanity set, I think he just likes looking at himself in the mirror.

WOW look at my tower...

KELLEN NO!!! Every time I built it really high he crawled over so fast and knocked it over!!

And he thought it was funny, he would look at Mom and laugh about it every time he knocked it over. I didn't think it was that funny.

Kellen is trying to walk. Mom pulled out my walker and Kellen has been pushing it around everywhere. Mom will really have her hands full when he starts walking everywhere.

I love to have tea parties, but sometimes Kellen wants to join in. Mom usually tells me to let him play with me. Evidently he didn't want the yellow cup, that's why he's looking so disgusted!!

Kellen thinks it funny to throw all my stuff on the ground.

I always have to tell him NO KELLEN!!

And it eventually leads to me taking the toy away from him. We are still working on sharing. I know that if he has something that I want I have to find a replacement toy for him before I can have the other. Mom thinks it's kinda funny listening to me try to rationalize with a 11 month old. In the end I just take the toy and distract him with something else so he doesn't get mad.

Kellen is starting to turn into a fish just like I did. We could hang out in the pool all day. Whenever Kellen gets tired he just lays his head back on his raft and closes his eyes, it's pretty cute!!

My BFF Addison

Kellen playing with my vanity once again, it might be time for Mom to buy some boy toys!!

Another Phoenix Trip!!

We decided to drive to Phoenix once again. I think this makes the 3rd time this year. Of course we stopped by Wichita on our way and spent the night with Grandma.

Grandma got a new swingset so we had to try it out. We both love it.

Then it was off to Phoenix. We drove 17 and a half hours in one day. We only stopped 3 times for gas. Kellen and I just hung out the whole time. He had a blanket on his window that he played with all day. (Of course I took this picture since Mom was driving)

Kellen and Aunt Katelyn on July 4th at the baseball park.

Austin and I waiting for our turn to go down the big slide!!

Kellen and I watching fireworks on Mom's lap. (He's making the funniest face)

Aunt Katelyn and Austin

I actually took this picture... I think I did a pretty good job!

I begged Mom to take me to the sprinkler park, I love that park so much!

Then we went to the Children's Museum, this is the cool dragon that is made of paper-mache that is sitting by the enterance.

They had a big maze that had holes in it so I could stick my head out!

They also had a pretend car wash that we were able to ride bikes through.

Kellen and I got to play on this sand table that had different colored light underneath it.

They have this cool house that kids can paint, everyday they use a different color, there was SOOOOO much paint on this house!

We also had fun in the toddler room, Kellen had a hard time figuring out which was his real Mom, the Mom in the mirror or the Mom not in the mirror.

The grocery store was my favorite, I got to get all my groceries then check out. I could have stayed in there all day long.

Here I am at the ice cream stand, I made the whole family ice cream cones. Yum Yum!

Overall we had so much fun at the Children's Museum, I can't wait to go back!!

After 2 weeks in Phoenix we had to leave, and of course we stopped by Wichita on the way home. Brayden taught me how to stick the orange in my mouth and make this funny face. I love my Brayden!

Brayden's birthday party was Saturday and we all had a great time. We all love Uncle Klint!

This slide was super fast when they put the water on it. We all came flying off the end into the pool!

Me, Konnor and Brayden

I've got the best Mom! I love you Mom!

He even had a pinata filled with candy, we had so much fun breaking it open.

A random picture of my cousins and I...Brayden, Kendall, Kellen, Kourtnee, and Konnor

I've got the best brother. He lets me do all kinds of crazy things to him. Before long he'll be able to pick on me right back, he won't be so much fun then!!
