Kirby the little man

Last week we were so busy. The weeks fly by. And now with such wonderful weather we have been trying to get outside often. It's hard with Bennett still taking about three naps during the day but Kirby loves it so much. So we just make it work how we can. Here are a few pictures of Kirby to show how he is growing and changing.

Kirby is always excited to go to church--he knows he will get to see all of his friends and get to play outside. Plus all those ladies spoil him and let him do whatever he wants. Wednesday night he asked to take his Bible to church since he sees mommy and daddy taking theirs. Since the Bible he is familiar with is a big picture Bible we found his 'Tiny Testament' (the small New Testament he was given at his dedication) to carry with him. He was so happy.
Even though this is not a flattering picture of me in my wife beater, it was so sweet that Kirby came to help me bathe Bennett.

Kirby at his new table and with his balloon. Why do people continue to give my child balloons? He LOVES them but those that know me, know that I hate for him to play with them because they are so dangerous for young children. It just ends badly with Kirby getting upset when we take it away. We have started letting him have it until bedtime and then the 'Balloon Fairy' comes to get it while he sleeps.

He wanted to hold on to it even in bed. Stan was worried that he would get the string wound around his neck and get strangled. I knew that as soon as he fell asleep (which would be soon because he was exhausted) he would let go and I could go in and give it to the 'Balloon Fairy'.

Is it a wife beater if the wife is wearing it? Maybe you should call it the husband-beater. I love the pictues of Kirby being helpful with bathtime. You need the chair Tonya gave me so they can bathe together.

I think it is so sweet that Kirby helped give Bennett a bath. And his "tiny Testament" is adorable!

If you ever need to get rid of a balloon, I can bring Sam over. He has an uncanny ability for letting go of them, as you saw last Sunday. :)
