A wading pool!!!!!! but it was so worth cleaning up the mess because he had a Blast! My cupboards got cleaned and so did the front of the oven. 
After I got this mess cleaned up I walked in Trystan's room to this mess! Trystan was in his room squealing throwing every single book he has off of his bookshelf and onto the floor!
My sweet boy is getting so big!! We have had a lot going on lately. The end of April Trystan and I went on a mini vacation to visit my family in Richfield. The day we left the weather was beautiful until we hit Cedar, then it started snowing. Between Bever and I-70 it was a blizzard and I could not see 200 feet in front of me. It was a little scary, but we made it all in one piece and Trystan did so good. I was a little worried how he would travel with just the two of us. He talked to me all the way from Cedar to Richfield. It was freezing the whole time we were there but Trystan had a blast playing with his Aunts. I enjoyed hanging out with my family and got some serious scrapbooking done while I was there... I am so behind. Trystan loves Nintendo DS, loved playing the piano and did not dig sledding
Trystan has Grandpa K wrapped around his little finger and all he had to do was point and Grandpa would take him outside. There is no where else this kid would rather be than outside playing. Grandpa let him play in his truck and jeep... We are still having a hard time convincing him that we don't go play in mom and dad's car and truck:)
Grandma Sam got Trystan ready for bed one night while we were there. She is a little out of practice. The onsie got done up over his pants... so we called them his Super hero suite. LOL
Trystan HATED sledding. It was really cold. The wind was blowing and it was snowing. All he wanted to do was go back to the car. He would point in the direction of the car and say go, go!
My dad helped me turn Trystan's Car seat around so he could face forward before we left the house. Trystan Loves being able to see. He just chilled all the way home. I also discovered on the way home that I really need to start watching what I say as I am driving!!!! Trystan has become quite the little backseat driver and hollars at the other cars and tells them to go, go, goooooo;)
While we were gone daddy was here working his butt off both at work and at home. He and his dad ripped out our whole backyard. Our Big trees are gone, the rock the grass and patio. Trystan has had so much fun helping daddy in the back yard getting it ready to redo so Trystan can play outside!!!!
Mikie and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary on May 8th. We went out to dinner and were going to go to a movie, but just before we left the house to take little man to Niccoles he spiked a fever of 101.7 It had only been two weeks since he ran a fever of 103+ for four days. So we went out for a fabulous dinner and went to pick up the baby. When we got back to Niccole's Trystan's fever was 103. We did high fevers for two more days. I think this time it was his freaking Molars he got three of them at the same time... poor baby. There was no other reason for the fever. The day after our Anniversary was Mother's day. I spent most of the day rockabying with trystan and timing motrin and Tylenol around the clock. We did go to Mikie's mom and dad's for a fabulous dinner and Trystan ran around with his ky-ky like a mad man, you'd never know his fever was as high as it was.
The following week Niccole Graduated from Nursing School. I am so proud of her!!!! Nursing school is no easy task and she came through with flying colors being a full time employee, wife, mother, daughter and sister!!!! 
Trystan has become quite the Mommy's boy lately and walks around the house saying mama, mama, mama, especially when I am at work or not around. He loves going to gramy's and papa's on the days that I work and loves Auntie picking him up from Wyndee's most days...especially if she will give him her keys:)
Our little man is suddenly so big, He is talking so much, and running full tilt, he undresses himself which is not always convinient, is trying to put on his own shoes and loves to help daddy and I around the house. He is starting to freak out when I put him to bed... I am a litte sad about that he has always gone to bed so well, but I am loving that he wants to snuggle a little more. He has learned to open all the doors at grammy's house time to baby proof the doors at home too! Because we have the same doorknobs, though at least for today he is not opening the doors at our house. Mikie and I are enjoying being parents more and more every day... If we could just win the lottery we would both became stay at home mom and dad!!!!
I love my days off with my little man!!!! Mikie has had to work the last few fridays which stinks...Trystan and I miss him, but none the less enjoy the days together. This morning we got up and after breakfast cleaned the living room, Trystan is my big helper and did the dusting for me!!! He helped me vacuum his room and played with his toys that I moved into the kitchen so I could do the living room floor. He went down for his morning nap and I cleaned the kitchen and showered. After morning nap the two of us went on a lunch date to port-a-subs then it was off to the park. It was a beautiful 80 degrees outside. We pulled up to the park and I noticed the splash pad was up and running. I thought about running home to get little man's swim trunks, but it was too late. Trystan had already spotted the water and was squealing to get out of the car and go, go, go!!! Sooo, it was off to splash in the water fully clothed socks shoes and all. Trystan had a blast!!! I bought him a bunch of new clothes recently for the summer and the shorts are a little big around the waste. The water weighed them down and he lost his shorts, I had to roll them up at the waist to keep them on. We played for about an hour, trystan was shivering so it was time to go, I stripped him down at the car, put a dry diaper on him and brought him home. What a fantastic day... Only could have been better if daddy was home!
Last weekend we took Trystan to get his first real haircut. We had his bangs trimmed before but this time we did the whole thing. My baby has no more curls :( and he looks like a little boy :( So stinkin cute though and he was so good. He sat in the chair like a big boy with mikie's cell phone and watched the barber cut his hair... that is until Juckich (the barber) touch his ears to trim around them then he was done. 
The Finished product
Mikie was out of town all week this week for work. We had a sprinkler head break while he was gone so trystan helped daddy fix it yesterday and then thought he should play in the sprinklers! He was soaked but he had a blast. Daddy even ran through the sprinklers with him... and no its not quite warm enough for that yet.
Mikie and I went and bought bikes a couple of weeks ago as well and got a baby seat for the baby and put it on Mikie's bike... He loves to go for rides...though he looks a bit disgusted in this picture
Last weekend my mom and mike were in town for Mike's mom's 80th birthday. Trystan and I took off Saturday morning with my mom and Mike to go to Cedar for the day. We went to mike's mom surprise 80th birthday lunch then hung out with family the rest of the day. As soon as we pulled into town it started dumping snow... it was so much fun to be in the snow again! I am also very greatful I live where it doesn't generally snow, but I miss it from time to time and love to play in it! This was trystan's first experience with the snow as well and he LOVED it, but HAATED the mittens! He was trying to catch flakes on his tounge and was wiping it off my car and the bushes at my grandparents. He trampled through it in my granparents back yard and fell face first in it and laughed!!!! We spent the night at my aunts' house and headed home Sunday morning for my mom to catch her flight home. Daniel and Ashley also came down and I got to meet my neice chloe!!! She is such a cutie with the most amazing blue eyes!!! It was a short trip but so much fun to see everyone!
Trystan and Chloe!!!!! Love this picture. Poor chloe, all trystan wanted to do was poke at her and talk very loud to her. Don't think she knew what to think!
