A Busy Month

We have had a busy month.  Kail was moved from the toddler class to the 2 year old class.  This means he gets dropped off with the kids from age 2 all the way up to 12.  It makes mom a little nervous, but he already knows his teacher and he really loves watching the older kids wrestle in the morning.

We love doing art work.

We discovered the joy of slip and slides with our cousins.

We made a new friend at the park.  This cat decided to come play and even climbed up on the play-set with us.

We took a trip to Gunnison to play with cousin Nora.

We decided that Aunt Devon and Uncle Jonas's back yard is awesome.

We had lots of fun at the Peach Days car show.  Our favorite part were the big playgrounds and eating a picnic and icy with mom and dad.

 

We are also really gaining our independence and think its pretty cool to wander the mall.

Dinosaurs

We had a lot of fun in July.  Kail is not a huge fan of fireworks yet but he is a fan of doing anything outside.  So we kick this post off with our trip to the Springville splash pad with Aunt JaNae, Uncle Nate and Baby Nora.  During which we all just chase the kids around. I didn't get the best shots but this is an awesome splash pad, complete with a river and rocks that Kail loved to climb on.

After that our Month became somewhat dinosaur themed.

We took a trip to the Ogden dinosaur park.  They had three or four animatronic dinosaurs inside, and even though most of those were babies and just as small as Kail, he was not a fan when they moved.  Dad got some really great hugs out of that room.

Then there was another trip to the City Creek mall to feed the fish and play in there  indoor playground, which just happens to be dinosaur themed.  

Mom may have spoiled him with a new stuffed toy which he would not let go of.

 

We can climb up all the dinosaurs now but down is still a bit scary.

We spent the month at daycare learning about dinosaurs too so yea for mom and dad unintentional reinforcing this months early learning curriculum!

Summer Vacation

June 25-July 4th, Jordan and I were able to take some time off and we did a family staycation. A week sounds like a lot of time off but it really flew by.

Jordan and I spent our first day with a trip to Wendover for some lunch and gambling.  We had a fun time playing roulette and just spending some time together.

Then Thursday we joined Aunt JaNae, Uncle Nate and baby Nora at the Living Planet Aquarium.

The Aquarium was a big hit.

The next day we took Kail to see his first movie theater movie.  Despicable Me 3.  He was a bit wiggly and we were worried during the previews but as soon as the real movie started, he was perfectly content to sit in my lap and eat his popcorn.  I was so proud!

The next day we spent some time at the Foxboro splash pad. We have tried to take Kail two other times but he just hasn't been interested until now.  Now he LOVES it.

We spent the end of our vacation in Gunnison with family but sadly I didn't get many pictures.

 Kail got a new tablet to entertain him on long car rides and has become absolutely obsessed with the movie Moana.  And because we cant stand to watch it for the 50th time he is now using it around the house too. Its just crazy how kids learn how to use these devices.  It took me three nights of playing with it to figure it out.  Kail was turning on his movie by himself in about 20 min.
