Happy Birthday Kyler!

Happy Birthday Kyler!

Some interesting Kyler stats:
Today is Kyler's 11th birthday. He was born on June 24, 1997 at 2:34 on a Tuesday morning. He was 7lbs exactly and was 21 1/2 inches long. Today he informs me he is one inch under 5 feet and about 74 lbs. He may not be the biggest kid ever but he's my kid and he's perfect to me.

Some interesting Horoscope info:
Kyler was born under the zodiac sign of Cancer (one of the 3 water signs). Some characteristics of a Cancer are: intuitive, sensitive, family/home oriented, dependable and loving. The ruling planet is the moon. His birthstone is a pearl.

Some silly momma thoughts:
Kyler has taught me a lot of things, but the most important thing he has taught me is how to be a mom. I don't know anything about parenting 11 year olds but I now know about all ages up to 11. I feel very lucky to have him as my first child because he has paved a pretty smooth parenting path for me. Kyler has always been pretty easy to get along with, understand and take care of. I am so excited for his 11th year. I'm sure he will teach me a lot about 11 year old boys.

Happy Birthday again, sweet boy.

Last night Myke was laying down by Sammy. He likes to distract you while he's suppose to be going to sleep. As he was laying down he looked at Myke and started reciting every word he knows. Uh-oh, no-no, here you go, thank you, up, binky, blankie, night-night. He thought he was sooo funny.

The other day I was in the other room and I hear my kids talking. By the way they aren't even suppose to be eating downstairs.
Kyler: Just bring me down a plate, so I can put crackers on it for Sammy.
Katie: O.k, Maybe we should just bring the high chair downstairs.
Kyler: Oh yeah, just bring the high chair downstairs
Katie: O.k
Mom: Noooo!!! Do not take the high chair downstairs
Katie: Mom said No
Kyler : Oh
Sometimes I wonder... seriously wonder

Jonas colored two identical pictures of Santa Claus. I showed them to Katie, wondering if he might have accidentally taken one of the other kids' at school. She said,"They aren't the same mom, Santa's standing on his head in one of them". I looked at it and I was holding one upside down. Okay Katie?!

Sometimes the kids bring woodchips home in their shoes from the school playground. There happened to be one by the front door. Sammy was scootin' fast towards it, with a look of serious intent on his face. Katie picked it up and then it was gone. I told her to throw it outside and she just looked at me. I said, "Where did you put it?" She looked caught and said,"I threw it down the heater vent."

Jonas said,"I want a webkins for my birthday." Myke said," Do you know what I want for my birthday?" Jonas thought about it for a second and said,"me to be quiet."

I got braces about a month ago and they are very painful and irritating. Kyler still has his braces on too. Today they put a power chain on my teeth which really hurts. So, I was talking to Kyler in the car and I said,"braces are the most annoying thing in the world, don't you think?" Kyler said, "no, they're not that bad." And I said,"what could possibly be more annoying?" He just looked at me and said," You....complaining about your braces."

Katie was telling me how she liked one of her friend' s outfits, and that she wanted an outfit like that. Her other friend said,"Oh now you like her clothes, you wanted to wear clothes like mine last week." Katie said, "That was one day, (kid's name). And her friend said,"nu huh you did it yesterday too, we had the same shoes on." Katie looked at her and said, "Yeah, that was just an accident".

While I was brushing Katie's hair before bed, Jonas came in to inform us that the Oympics start in three days Katie says excitedly,"That's so cool Jonas, are you going to be in it."

On Sunday we all went to The Gateway with the Walkoviak's. When we were walking back to our car in the parking garage Jonas said,"Mom, wait for me, I'm too young to die."
