So it's been awhile and i've been pretty lazy but it is getting to the end of the semester and school has kind of taken over. I have decided that instead of trying to break up every single day that i would just make one big post. Bear with me because i know that there are a lot of pictures but i will try my best to keep it interesting. Here we go...
One morning KJ told me that he wanted to comb my hair. He had me sit on the ground and he stood up on the couch and combed through my hair and then he would tell me that it looked "so pretty" and then he would mess it up and start all over. He loves messing up my hair but today was the first time that he wanted to comb it first and then mess it up.
Oh my gosh this kid loves trains. He wants to play with them pretty much every single day. He wakes up and wants to play with his trains. We have started to try to make the track in different ways to keep it interesting. He liked this one because i made the bridge a little bit longer. We keep trying different things and it makes it fun.

We have started trying to potty train KJ. Sometimes he's on board and sometimes he isn't. For now we just ask him if he wants to try and if he does then we take him in and if he goes then he'll get a treat. So far he has gone pee maybe 5 times and is always very excited when he does it. "Pee pee in the big potty!" He is the sweetest little thing!
More train pictures. He likes to lay down in the middle and drive his train around and around.
Sometimes we like to nap together. He is so sweet because he will just beg me to lay down with him and then he will move over until our foreheads touch and then he will say "love you too Daddy" often times i haven't even said anything but he just tells me twice "love you too Daddy, Love you too" It just melts my heart.
He loves going to the car wash. At first it scares him but while they detail the car he loves to play on the little play cars. It was fun this time because i had to get the leather cleaned so we were there for an extra long time. He's so much fun and so full of energy.
The weather was good enough today that KJ got to play with his lawnmower outside. We probably sat outside for almost an hour. He just loves being outside.
KJ got these garages from Uncle and Aunt J for Christmas. He like to stack them and put the cars in while they are stacked "so high" He is getting pretty good at knowing what order they should be staked so that they are sturdy enough not to fall over. He's such a bright little boy.
So KJ woke up early today and i knew he wasn't ready to get up so i let him lay down with me. I woke up a few hours later because my should hurt so bad and i couldn't figure out why. I realized pretty quickly that it was because the little guy had been laying on it. He will usually just lay on the other side of the bed if he falls asleep with me but it was just so sweet to wake up to him on my shoulder. Its nice to cuddle with him when i can.
This was just a big weekend for KJ! He was able to spend a lot of time at the hospital which he loves because he gets to see the helicopter and today he was able to visit it with Nana Georgia and Aunt Em.
The reason that KJ was able to spend so much time at the hospital was because he got to meet his new cousin! He was so excited to go see baby E and hold him. He was so sweet to him. He would look down at him and say "it's okay baby, it's ok. Shhh baby" He will make such a great big brother some day.
Another picture with new cousin Baby E!
We went on the Train to Salt Lake. I promised him that he would get to spend a day on the choo choo so that's what we did. He was so happy!
He loves playing at the mall. We played on the dinosaurs, and looked at the Fishies. He would spend all day doing those two things if i let him but we had to get back before bed and the trains added a lot of travel time so we were only there for a few hours. I know he is happy for what he gets but it's still so hard to make him leave when he is so happy.
While we were waiting for the trains to come we ran around in the grass outside of Daddy's school. He loved looking at the pretty flowers but he just wanted to run up and down the hills.

He got a new car while we were at the mall because he had lost his so we replaced it. We were watching Frozen on the way home to keep him awake.
We went shopping with Mommy and while she was trying on clothes we sat down on the floor and read books. He loves to read and his new favorite thing is to point at all of the letters on each page and tell me what they are. He knows all of his letters!! Mr. Smarty Pants!!
Riding the carousel with Mommy
KJ wanted to shoot shoot and Mommy couldn't pass up the chance to shoot a gun, even if it was just a plastic one. They had so much fun...Rednecks and Republicans :)
KJ at the Apple Store trying on headphones.
KJ loves to pray. He wanted to say a prayer before we ate our dinner and wanted me to put my head down all the way down on the table. Such a spiritual little kid.
I came home from a job interview and KJ asked me if i was going to Church. I love that he associates my white shirt and tie with Church. We shared some fruit snacks and celebrated.
KJ went to lunch with Grandma and Aunt H today. First time at Burger Supreme, Very happy boy.
We shared a popsicle and he has a chocolate mustache, it was so cute i decided to take a picture before cleaning it.
We made a pizza together today. He ate more olives from the can than actually made it onto the pizza. Just like any other kid he loves to put them on his fingers and then eat them. He just kept asking me for more and more.
Another day, another popsicle with Daddy.
KJ wanted to go to the mall and ride on the rides today. He was so happy that Daddy actually brought enough money for him to ride on all of them.
He loved the Motorcycle because he got to be just like Grandpa. Look Daddy! Ride cycle like Grandpa!
We also rode the carousel after he did all of the other rides. "Hi horsey, hi!"
Getting ready to watch the Florida Basketball game. Start 'em young Raise 'em right!
When we watch the games KJ just yells "watch basketball Daddy! GO GATORS, GO GO GO!"
Singing Hymns at Church today. He wanted to hold the book and sing all by himself.
Running around outside after Church.
More pictures running around outside in the nice weather.
