I need to get back on track!

So, I'm actually feeling a LOT better most of the time now, so it's about time I get back on track with this blog! I have lots of pictures to share, so I'll just start with the random miscellaneous ones:

This is probably my favorite pictures of Kyler right now! Maybe I'm just biased, but I think he is just too stinkin cute!

Our lawn mower wasn't working for a while (I have Kyle's dad to thank for getting it up and running again while they were here visiting!), so we had all these little purple flowers growing all over the backyard. Layla LOVED to go out and pick them to make bouquets for me. At one time I think we had four different vases or cups with bouquets of these flowers! In this picture, if you look really close you can see Layla's "Big Sister in Charge, giving instructions on how to pick flowers face".

Does anyone know where I can get a more masculine baby doll? Kyler loves babies right now so he's constantly getting hold of Layla's babies and rocking and singing to them!

If anyone knows how to get a video on here, I also have a cute video of him singing to one of the baby dolls, but I can't figure out how to get it on here.

  This isn't a particularly great picture of Layla with her hair undone and still in her jammies (which just happens to be one of my t-shirts from 1st grade, I have my baby brother to thank for that still being around!), but Layla gets awfully proud of the towers she builds and wanted to show this one off so bad that she brought it to me when I was on the computer one day! Carrying that wobbly thing across the hall from her room to the office was a pretty impressive accomplishment for this not-so-coordinated little girl!

Two words for this picture: Bubble Beards!

As a side-note, this picture also captures both of their "Cheese!" smiles; gotta love it! (Atleast Layla has finally figured out how to smile with her eyes open!)

When Layla was just under a year old I bought some finger paints, got her undressed and let her have at it! She loved it and got it all over herself, and we still have her painting hanging up in the kids' room. I finally got some paints for Kyler to give it a try and all he was interested in was playing with the tubes of paint. When he did finally start spreading it around on the paper, he just reached over and did it with the tips of his fingers then he rubbed it all over his hands like it was lotion. In the end, he ended up walking across the paper and ripping it up. Maybe we'll try again another day.

That's all I have time for right now, but there will be more to come soon. I promise!
