Summer fun days

Boy is it hot!! 

Kristian loves the water. Yesterday we played with water in the backyard! Today we will do the same and during the week we will hit the water park just up the street! 

Today we had a fun play date with my friend. The littles are so funny. Kris was a little upset not wanting to share, but he still loves his little buddy and they hugged  . 

We are prepping our house to get our floors done, now happening this week!!it will be a lot if work but I'm so excited to see the final outcome! The next couple weeks will be crazy around here with that and some other projects we have going on! 

Hope you're all having a great Monday! It's water fun and ice cream all day here. 

Baby pancakes

This morning my sister and I went to breakfast with the kids. We walked to the restaurant just around the corner. 

Kristian loves pushing his baby cousin in the stroller and we like it too so he walks a little faster and in the direction we want haha.

We had a delicious breakfast and the best pancakes I have ever tasted! Yum!!!!

Kristian didn't eat that much at the restaurant. Before we left for breakfast he had a major meltdown for an avocado. So he ate one before we left haha. 

Almost 20 months old!

Kristian, what are you up to these days...? You will be 20 months old in 10 days!  You are an independent little guy and you know what you want and won't stop until you get it! 

You now ask for specific foods you want. At breakfast today you asked for cheese, yesterday you wanted apples and bananas. At lunch yesterday you asked for avocado and always ask for more and more of the foods you like.

You mastered going up and down the stairs on your own but you are determined to learn how to go up and down without holding on! You get brave sometimes and look at me with a 'see I can do it' face. If I say you will fall, you you will say  Noooooooooo. Haha our conversations are so fun these days especially when you yell at me if I'm not giving in to your demands haha! I wouldn't have it any other way!

You're a fun toddler that loves to play and laugh and of course you have the toddler bossiness of wanting things your way. You are so cute so it's really hard to not just give in! 

You love your cousins but get a little jealous if mommy and daddy are playing with them too!

We cleared out all the older baby like toys and brought in new ones. You love balls,blocks, cars and puzzles. 

You absolutely love the water!! We need some warmer days tho! 

I love you soooo much!! 

A little ice cream on this rainy cold spring day

Yes, it's rainy and cold here. The weather is clearly confused. It's not fall, summer is around the corner! Right? I hope ha! 

The last couple days have been cold and rainy so we have been having some indoor fun at playlands and baby groups in our area. Baby k loves to just run free and explore. 

At the zoo over the weekend we used the angel wings to keep Kristian from running too far, he is a fast one so in crowds it's a little scary! My niece had hers too so he liked doing what his big cousin was doing. Which is great because now we can go for walks down the street and I don't need to worry about him making a fast one to the street! 

Today we went to visit baby Ella and met my cousin for dessert too. Yum! Funnel cakes! 

Baby K or should I say little K since he is not a baby anymore, is growing sooo fast! His vocabulary is expanding everyday and he surprises me with something new every single day!! Some words I don't recall saying or teaching him! Haha

He is such a big boy wanting to do things on his own and with out mommies help. Like eating an apple on his own or a whole banana without cutting it up. 

He has 3 canines poking thru leaving only 5 more teeth to come. Soon his front smile will be full! 

His smile just melts my heart!!! 

Check me out on Vine Dreamtnm 

Birthdays, showers and zoo fun!

This weekend was jammed packed with fun. 

Saturday we had my cousins fiancées bridal party and another cousins birthday party! My husband and baby K stayed home playing while I was at the bridal shower. Just to leave and find out baby k walked down steps all by himself! My husband got it on video! I was soo sad that I missed that!!! We have been practicing everyday! I will post the video next post! 

The shower was so nice and I got to catch up with a lot of family members. 

That same evening we went downtown to a restaurant in a old Mansion that was built in the 1800's for my cousins 25th birthday. The dinner was delicious and we had a great night out. 

Sunday we went to the zoo. When we first got there we decided to see the Pandas first. The line was long! And it rained on us! Ha! But other than that the weather was great! 

The kids had a great time! 

Fun rain or shine

Yesterday was a mix of rain and sun. So we went to the mall for a bit to run around and later in the day we spent it outdoors. Baby k is ok staying in his stroller for a bit, but the second he is out he does not want to get back in. He had fun pushing is stroller through the mall ha!

We bought a water table this year and I'm soo glad we did. Warm weather splashing and playing with water is so much fun for Kristian. He loves it! Video link below too!

Victoria Day long weekend fun!

We did a lot this weekend. We cleaned up and did some house work, had a BBQ party and also had a date night.

My husband and I had a date night Saturday. We went down to the city to one of our favorite Italian restaurants. Mmm the food was delicious! It brought back memories of when we lived in the city. We also got a parking ticket too, ha! The remembered how many tickets a year we use to get when we lived in the city haha! We were on our way to watch a movie and we saw a sign on a restaurant saying it was cuban jazz night. So we decided to go there instead. So happy we did. The night was perfect :)

Sunday night we had guests over for a BBQ party. We had fireworks and we also watched the fireworks from the theme park just north of us. We can see them from our backyard. We love that! The kids didn't like them too much though haha they were too loud for them.

It was a fun weekend. Baby k is sleeping in this morning too ha!

The weather was awesome and we spent a lot of time outdoors. We had a great weekend.

For those in OK hit by the tornado and those fearing tornados in their city. I'm sending my prayers out to all the families.

Mother's Day weekend

My second Mother's Day! I'm so proud to be a mom to my sweet little boy. I love him more than words can express! He has brought soo much joy to our family and I feel so blessed to be his mom.

This weekend we went cross border shopping. The drive is not that long and we got some really good deals. I bought 4 pairs of shoes, jeans, a dress and baby k some shoes and outfits, my husband found some great deals too. We spent the whole day shopping, eating out and having fun. Baby K loved it. We also shopped at target. I love target! Can't wait for one to open near us soon! On the way back home we drove by Niagara Falls and stopped and the Hershey factory. A must!

On Mother's Day we went to visit our mothers to celebrate Mother's Day. We had a great Mother's Day weekend.

Hope you did too!

Sun, fun and blueberry pie!

Today started out dark and rainy, but by the afternoon the sun was shining and it turned out to be a nice warm day!

Baby k loves picking those dandelions, kicking and throwing balls playing on the slide and just exploring the backyard. Of course he would try and pick up ants and put dirt in his mouth ha! Oh boy!

We spent some of the afternoon and evening playing soccer in the backyard with his new net that he had got for his birthday last year!

After hours of playing outside we ended our day with some blueberry pie. Yum!

Sick days

My little one has had a fever the last couple days and has not been feeling himself. The fever has passed thank goodness and he's slowly feeling himself again. We stayed in the last couple days only playing in the backyard for a bit. We also made some Mother's Day art too!
Baby k loves paying with his new swing and slide set ;) and loves picking all the dandelions to bring to me to smell ha! Sweet boy. The weather is so nice and the flowers are blooming. I'm hoping my little one feels all better soon. It breaks my heart when he is feeling sick.
