First Wish Bone

Believe it or not, Kyle and I have had a wish bone sitting in our kitchen windowsill since Turkey Day 2010! Our intentions were to have Charlie and Kayden break it, but every opportunity that we have had, the wish bone has just been forgotten. So tonight Charlie was over so we figured it was the perfect opportunity for the two to go at it, so they sat in the living room, Charlie took one side and Kayden the other, after a couple seconds of tug-o-war, Kayden was victorious. Since he is really too little to understand the concept of making a wish, Kyle took his wish and wished for Kayden to sleep through the night, so I hope the wish comes true. :)

Helping with watering the plants

Kayden just loves to help in the yard, I mean, what isn't there to love about digging in the dirt, except to poor water on the dirt first to turn it into mud! Luckily we haven't had too many messy mud days, just yet. Here are some pictures of Kayden helping me water.

Bubbles!

We had a couple very nice days here recently, so Kayden and I took advantage of it and played outside, we had a great time. He is at that age where bubbles are the coolest thing, so Kyle had the great idea to purchase an automatic bubble machine. Kayden had so much fun with it. Here are some pictures of him enjoying his time outside.

Swim Lessons

We had Kayden's first swim lessons today and, well, it didn't really go as well as I had thought. Normally Kayden loves the water and his baths, so I thought swim lessons would be so much fun for him. Well, I was a little wrong. He didn't do so well until about half way through them. It was finally time to break out the toys and teach the kids how to rotate their arms and that finally got the tears to stop. After that it was all smiles.

Here are some pictures of Kayden waiting to get into the water.
