Dear Summer,
Please stay around forever, because Kyle and I adore you.
Love,
Krista
I've decided we will pretend it's still summer until Halloween, when we will be forced to acknowledge the season "change." This shouldn't be hard to do since our temps in So Cal are showing no signs of fall (yes!!). Today we went to a friend's 1st birthday party at a park in Huntington Beach and it was the perfect day. Kyle had a blast running around with all the kids and the shade and breeze felt awesome while I continued to work on my flip flop tan lines :)
These past few weeks have been so much fun with my boy. We went to Knott's and Frogg's bounce house, where he climbed up slide ladders and slid down like he was 4. We checked out the OC Zoo, where he brushed a goat and rode the train (which is becoming one of his favorite activities). We swam at Mammie's house, took tons of walks in the park with Penny, Kyle had his first ice cream cone and got his 2nd haircut by his daddy.
I'm sure I'll say this about 1 million more times in my life, but 18.5 months is my favorite age yet. I've noticed such a change in Kyle recently - he is developing a silly sense of humor and has started to become more independent. He climbs in his car seat by himself, gets his washcloth and towel from his closet when we run his bath water, blows bubbles on his own and uses a fork for almost everything. Yesterday I was standing at the sink washing dishes, and I could tell he was getting bored so I suggested he go get some cars from the living room and bring them into the kitchen to play with. What do you know, a few seconds later here comes Kyle with a couple of cars, which he happily played with until I was done! SUCH a change from 16 and 17 months! He's such a big boy and I just love that I get to spend so much time with him.
