Snugglin & working out!

Grey has been such a cuddle bug lately!  I love it:)  He will walk up to the couch where I'm sitting and say..."snuggle mommy" and then crawl up and get in the "spooning" position and roll up in his blanket.  I seriously cannot get enough!

He shares the love with Daddy too...there is no one he'd rather nap with!

After all that cuddling and sleeping, he was ready for a workout! Pumpin som iron....

And then lots of pull-ups!

He really doesn't work out, but he sees Skyler and I working out in the basement and likes to try everything we do!  It's pretty sweet!

I cannot believe it is the end of August already!  All the kids are going back to school...which means the Canfield Fair is right around the corner!  I can hardly wait to go back to my hometown, visit family and friends, see Blake Shelton, and eat lots of greasy fair food!  We are taking a few days off and heading home for a long weekend next weekend!  The only thing that makes next weekend even sweet is COLLEGE FOOTBALL!

Haircut & The Zoo!!!

This week flew by!  Wednesday evening I had a dinner for work and then Thursday evening I met my friend Katie for dinner!  Needless to say, I was well fed this week:)

Greyson's hair was beginning to grow over his ears, so I figured it was time for a haircut!

And we went shorter than ever!  It grows fast so why not!

Friday after work the neighbor kids were out playing so Grey and I went to say hi! Grey got to "ride" the 4-wheeler! (By ride, I mean hang out on it and say vroom vroom!)

Big brown eyes and juicy lips!  I love bathtime!!!

I believe he was at the end of a "cock dugadugaduga doooooo"

Friday evening Sky drove home from Detroit and didn't get home til almost 8pm so we just laid low.  Sad to say, but we were super excited to watch Dexter.  The latest season was just released on NetFlix!  Can you say loooooosers!??!?!?!  That's our idea of a fun Friday night these days!

Saturday morning we went to IHOP for breakfast and then headed to the zoo!  Imagine this, but Grey ate bacon and fruit!  No french toast, no pancakes, no eggs.....just Bacon!  Who is this kid!

My lil stud headin into the zoo in his safari get up!

Hanging with the baby Rhino!

Not quite as cozy with the real animals...someone was in awe!

And before long, he was ready to jump right in!

At least I was looking...neither the elephant or my munch was cooperating!

DRAGON!

Grey called this "the cage"!

But it sure didn't keep him contained!

We came home and took nice long naps...then headed to Saturday church!  Now...I am anxiously awaiting Grey going to bed so we can watch some more Dexter!!!

Cockadoodledoo!

Sky taught Grey how to talk like a rooster!  It depends on his mood how many "dugaduga's" we get!  Apparently he was in a pretty good mood yesterday morning!

Grey got in touch with his artistic side yesterday!

He started out sticking to the driveway...and then ventured off and decided his "rideable Thomas" needed some sprucing up!

Grey has a lil cold and seemed a lil more docile than normal yesterday...but so far it isn't too bad (knock on wood).  He was still pretty funny!

After his bath last night, I drained the water like always. Normally he dances a bit and says goodbye to the water before he's ready to get out.  Well last night, he really wasn't ready to get out.  He laid down in the tub after the water was all drained (no towel yet) and said "go ni ni"!  He was being silly, but it was pretty cute!

He called the towel his blanky and kept covering himself up saying "where did Greyson go?" It was too sweet! It took a cup of milk to finally lure him out!  

Dani's 30th & our weekend!

I feel like I have been such a bad blogger lately!  I guess that's just summer!

Munch still loves to swims and is getting better and better at leaning forward and kicking his lil feet!

Well, most of the time!!!

My pensive lil man:)

 So I don't want to forget this lil quirk of his.  He isn't quite ready to potty train yet, but he is starting to show the first signs.  

Anytime he has to go #2, he runs into a spare bedroom and hides. If we come near, he says byeeee! If we don't leave, he literally pushes us out the door!  It's hysterical!  

Another lil think I don't want to forget is how much my lil man loves bacon. There are days when I ask him what he wants to do today and he says "eat bacon".  

And who doesn't love a bath picture:)

Or a picture of Grey in the closet with Sky's slippers on!

So this weekend was the big surprise for my sister's 30th birthday.  Greg has been planning it forever with help from my Mom and I.  It has been so so so hard to not give it away and up until the last minute we still weren't sure if she had any idea!  My parents and brother came in town Friday evening.  I just made dinner and we hung out!

Grey tried on my mom's glasses...

and thought he looked sooooo smart!!!

Saturday we had a nice breakfast at a lil restaurant and then just helped get ready for the party!

How funny is this cake!  This is Danielle when she was 6 years old...gotta love the 80s dance recital photo shoots! "OH NO, SAY IT ISN'T SO, DANI'S TURNING THE BIG 3-0!!!"

 I video'd Dani arriving at the party so I don't have a picture of her face, but it was priceless.  She just kept saying "Shut-up!  Shut-up!"

Sky's friend Nick, and Dani's friends, Katie & Jamie

Travis, Hannah, Skyler, and Evan.  (Hannah is a life-long friend of Dani and mine and it was so awesome of her and her husband to come!)

The birthy girl and her big brother!

The "Knoedler" women!  

Birthday girl, Dad & Mom!

It was such a fun night and I'm so glad we were able to pull off the surprise!  

Yesterday we headed to London, Ohio (a small town about 45 minutes away) to have dinner at Danny Husec's parents house.  Danny is a classmate of Sky's at West Point...so it's always great to get together.  Travis, Nick, Sky, Grey and I headed out around 3pm yesterday.  They live out near a bunch of farms so Grey had a blast running around.  He was loving their "kitty-cat"!  I forgot my phone and camera so I didn't take any pictures:(

All in all it was a great weekend and I am not so ready for it to be Monday!!!

ABC'S

Curious George

Skyler took Greyson to the library on Saturday to give me a few minutes to myself and I so wish I would have gone because Curious George was there!

Big hug!

After the library Sky and Grey ventured to the grocery store.  I think Grey must have more fun with Sky at the grocery because Sky lets him run around like a wild man!

Who knew the grocery store could be so fun!?!?!?!?

Lazy Week

It has been sooo hot here so the only time we spend outside is in the morning.  

Making obstacles for Henry to get through!

Tuesday evening Grey and I ran to the mall to run some errands!  Grey was so good so I let him play on the indoor play area!

Although they are germ filled, I just couldn't say no!  Thank goodness for hand sanitizer and a bath right after!

Sportin his new Disney T-shirt!

Mr Pouty Face!

Waking up on the way to Kims!

We were lazy bums all weekend!  We watched a lot of Olympics but did manage to make it out to grab some dinner Saturday night.  We went to Mellow Mushroom and had some yummy pizza.  Sky and Grey were posing by Brutus!  Only 4 weeks until college football!!!
