Kyle's Bag of Tricks

It's been a while since we've posted - I break my promise each time to get better about, but I hope that having a 10-month-old is a good excuse! Kyle continues to keep us busy and continues to amaze us with his many talents! Since our last post, he's still working on his walking with assistance of his toys. But in the meantime, he has become a super-fast crawler!! There is no more scooting around, this is full on crawling at what seems like 100mph because we turn our heads and he's cruising away! He has really developed his personality and is just a ton of fun to be around! Some of his fun new talents/tricks are:

Waving - used to wave his hand side to side, but now it's officially an open/close hand wave!

Clapping - he started to get the hang of this around Valentine's Day....but of course he mastered it while Mommy and Daddy were away in the Bahamas for a few days. We have this video courtesy of Nana and Papa:

"The Stevie Wonder" - honestly, one of the cutest and funniest things I've ever seen! I don't even remember how it came about, think it was just Kyle rubbing his head on the back of the highchair and before we knew it, when we'd say "Stevie Wonder", he'd start doing it!



Blowing Kisses - by far THE cutest thing in the world!! (end of Stevie Wonder video)

High-Five - he learned this while Mumma and Dada were away in the Bahamas - courtesy of Nana and Ellie (my godmother)

Where's Your Tongue? - we have NO IDEA where he learned this, how he figured out tongue because we've been trying to teach him "where's your nose?" and all of a sudden he'd do the tongue so now we do "where's your tongue?" and here you have it!



Peek-a-Boo - too cute!!



The list goes on! He's also pulling himself up onto EVERYTHING! Adam and I have done our best to babyproof but have determined that there is just never a 100% baby proof possibility as this little guy finds things we didn't even know were within reach!

Kyle also had the joy of spending a few nights with his grandparents at the end of February while Mommy and Daddy went on a mini vacation to the Bahamas with Aunt Kelly, Uncle Brian, Aunt Rachael and Uncle Jon! He had so much fun with YiaYia and Papou the first night and Nana and Papa the next couple nights that we aren't even sure if he missed us! haha We are so thankful for technology though because we were able to Skype with him at least once a day, sometimes twice and that helped us to not miss him as much plus it kept us up to speed with his new tricks, that he developed day to day!

To say that we're having tons of fun is an understatement, he's an awesome baby and while he has his days from time to time, we love him so much! We are crusin' toward his 1st Birthday faster than either of us could have imagined and although everyone says "it goes by sooo fast!" you never really know until you experience it for yourself! More to come, but I wanted to get some updates out, since it has been (embarrassingly!) 2 MONTHS since my last post!!
