Tackle Football

This year Kyler played tackle football. His team was the Falcons. He really did great and he loved it! He ended up being really good. We thought it would toughen him up a bit, yeah not really. He got to be on the same team as his cousin, but i forgot to get a picture of them together.

Kyler in his younger days

I had to post some pictures of Kyler in is younger days. It was so fun going through all his pictures. He was such a cute and fun baby. Where has the time gone?


Grandpa liked to stop and show Kyler the fish he had caught. Hopefully one day he'll be able to out fish Grandpa.
How handsome is this stud.
Kyler wasn't so sure about the camera. I couldn't resist taking a ton of pictures though. He was about 8 months here.
Kyler loves to dress up like his dad. He even has the army smile down.
Kylers first fishing trip. Look at that grin. He's definitely a true boy.
Kyler still plays with this hat. Just now he wears clothes to go with it.

Kyler turns Nine

I can't believe Kyler is nine years old. I still remember being pregnant with him, sitting on the couch, bored to death, and saying, man I wish he were here so we would have something to do already. Now, nine years later, it was be nice just to be bored for even one hour. I wouldn't give it up for anything though. Kyler has really been the best kid. The poor thing was spoiled until his twin sisters came along and his Dad was deployed to Toelle. He had to grow up pretty fast. He has always been such a great help with the twins. He is a little on the sensitive side, only because the poor thing is surrounded by a house full of hormones. How could he not be. I am so grateful that he is a part of our family. He helps around the house occasionally, but when he does , he does a great job. I know his world was turned upside down when the twins were born,but he has done a great job with helping me with them. For all of you that knows Kyler, he really is a great kid. He loves school, especially his teacher, Mr Robison. He loves playing basketball and soccer and is really good at both. He loves finally being old enough to go fishing and hunting with his dad and grandpa. Oh no! His favorite thing to eat is orange chicken from Panda Express. Thanks Kyler for being a part of our family and bringing us so much joy! We love you!Kyler and his cousin Ashlyn share the same Birthday. She turned 10 and he turned nine.
I know, I really went all out on the Birthday cake this year, but we were out of town, it was Easter break, and I already had packed a ton of stuff, so the poor guy settled for cupcakes. They did have cool soccer wrappers though. Nice creative shape of the number nine.Huh?
I wish Brent was half as excited as Kyler was to open his presents. He scored some cash this Birthday and some pretty cool presents, including a new Basketball hoop. Who wouldn't be happy?
Kyler and his lifelong buddy Taran Bartholomew. They've been best friends since they were little. Kyler said all he really wanted to do for his Birthday was play with Taran.
One happy birthday Boy. Happy Birthday Kyler! We Love You!
