Okoboji TripMay has been a very busy and eventful month for our family. Trenton graduated from preschool, Tyler celebrated his 2nd birthday, and Dustin & I went on a mini vacation with Troy & Paige to Okoboji. It seems like we always have something planned...looking at our calendar our summer is already filled up!
Trenton has been enjoying the nice weather and playing outside with all of the neighbor kids every chance he gets. We have already had the pools, slides, & sprinklers out quite a few times. He has been practicing with dad on catching, throwing and hitting the baseball off his tee. We have already noticed a big improvement. Dad has told him he needs to practice every night if he wants to be a good baseball player. We went to his preschool graduation at the elementary school where the kids sang their songs and showed us a display of their art work. He was very excited for the graduation. When he was walking out to the bleachers in his cap he stopped in the middle to look for us, and then once he spotted us he kept waving & smiling through the ceremony. Dustin & I keep commenting on what a great big brother he is with Tyler! Most of the time he is very patient & willing to share in what he is doing because of course Tyler wants to do everything that big brother is doing!
Tyler is changing every day! He has been slow at talking but we are noticing that he is using his words more every day. His favorite word is "NO"! I guess that is part of the "terrible two's". He definitely has an attitude! He is always giving you some type of look with his eyes. If he is upset or embarrassed he will turn his head away from you and will just shout No at anything you ask him. It is hard not to laugh because his looks & expressions are so cute right now! I recently got a call from Heather telling me that Tyler had a cooked carrot stuck in his nose. She said he had put a carrot, green bean & corn up there and the carrot was too far up. I had to leave work to take him to the Dr. It was not a fun Dr. visit for Tyler....I am hoping he has learned his lesson! Now that Tyler is 2 we are thinking we should take the pacie away from him. He is only using it when he sleeps but he does have some spares hidden and we will catch him getting a few extra sucks in the corner. One day he was asking Dustin to open the freezer and once he did he pulled out a pacie that was hidden in a frosty mug! I am thinking this is going to be a hard habit to break. We had a Curious George birthday party at our house on Memorial Day with friends & family. Tyler had gotten a bounce house for his birthday so we had that blown up in the basement for all of the kids. Unfortunately, Steph fell out & had to get 9 stitches on her ear. We were laughing that the adult was the one that made the visit to the ER and all of the kids were fine. Tyler really got the hang of singing Happy Birthday and now when he hears of someones birthday or was eating a cupcake he started singing "Happy Birthday to me"!
Dustin & I enjoyed a weekend trip to Okoboji with Troy & Paige. The guys had a fishing tournament on Sunday. We were all able to go out in the boat on Saturday and then out to a nice restaraunt in our hotel that night. Sunday the guys got up early for their tournament and Paige & I stayed around the area to shop. We had a great time! Now the guys didn't have as much luck in their tournament as we did shopping. We were hoping they would have won some money to pay for our shopping.
