1st Happy Meal

So our day at the park got rained out the other day, so to make the day somewhat special I got Zayne his 1st Happy Meal from McDonalds! Growing up I remember loving Happy Meals and going to McDonalds, so this was a special day. Plus Zayne is in LOVE with Shrek right now so the fact that the box and toy were Shrek made it that much better...

So we came home and had an indoor picnic eating his Shrek Happy Meal and watching Shrek... It was a GREAT day!

(Ya, Courtney had to throw herself in this picture haha, typical middle child syndrome!)

Finally a nice WARM day!!

Today was so NICE and WARM! I loved it. I put sunscreen on Zayne and we went out to play. Zayne did his outside chore 1st, which is watering the flowers, he LOVES that chore. Haha. Then it was play time, trying to CLIMB trees, sliding down the slide and playing in the dirt. Can't wait for more Warm days outside with my boy!

Scary Morning...

So today while I was showering and Zayne was playing in his jumper I heard him gagging, so I looked out and saw him with a mouth full of Gel. So I jumped out of the shower and scooped the gel out of his mouth and rinsed out his mouth, mind you I was naked with shampoo still in my hair, haha. I was freaking out so I looked at the package and it said to contact poison control immediately, of course, why wouldn't it?! So I ran downstairs and called and the man said to take him to the E.R. cause the Lidocain can cause seizures if ingested. Lovely. So called my mom and we took him in. The most embarrassing part, it was Bikini Zone Gel, haha. Well they hooked him up to the monitor to make sure he was having heart problems from it, he was fine. So we headed home.

I guess it is time to really kick it into gear and child proof the whole house. Better safe than sorry. I feel horrible about the whole thing, but I gotta remember, it was bound to happen, all kids get into things they aren't suppose to, thank God it wasn't something more serious, I am just thankful my little boy is safe.

^MoHaWk^

So I finally cut Zayne's hair into a Mohawk. I have been wanting to do this forever! Here is a picture of him in the morning when the hawk isn't done........

And here is a picture of him with it done. Gotta love his blue eyes in this picture. He looks so cute with it done. He was a big hit a church on Sunday!

So Zayne went on a walk with his Grandma and I decided to join them so I started running towards them from behind and Zayne looked back and lost his balance, resulting in his first big owie... poor kid....

Luckly he walked it off like a big boys and continued on with his day....Don't ya just love this picture...

18-month Check-up

Zayne had his doctors appt. today. And surprise surprise he is still small, haha. He was so cute waiting in the waiting area to get called back, he loved all the kids, he is mainly a flirt with all the girls, looking at them and giving them one of his huge, cute, amazing smiles. It is so funny. Here are his stats as of today....

Weight: 21.0 lbs. (3rd percential--basically 3% of kids his age are smaller than him)

Height: 31.5 inches ( 30th percential)

Head: 46.5 cm (17the Percential)

He is still tiny but yet he is so big. He is so funny. He sings the Lady Gaga song that starts out--ra ra ra ra ra--- thats all he sings but that is what he is singing, so funny. He also follows directions relatively well, you can say "Take this to Grandma" and he will, but he has a hard time understanding the word "NO", or maybe he just refuses to acknowledge it.... He is learning new things everyday, he thinks that everytime someone goes into the bathroom it is time for him to brush his teeth, he gets mad if you don't let him.

Can't believe how much he is learning each day!

Playin' like a boy in the April SUN!

It was FINALLY a nice day outside, so we spent ALL day outside playing. Zayne is all boy, loves playin in the dirt, with rocks, and sticks. I can't wait until this summer!!! Here are a few pictures of today, my camera died and I don't have any extra batteries on hand so..... enjoy!
Ya like his dorky face... caught him mid-blink...

How handsome does he look in this picture? Seriously?!?!

And here is a short video of him playin...
