The tricycles....

Jason and I have been talking about getting Kyler a tricycle for Easter for awhile now. I'm crazy but I wanted certain features (like that it pedals down like a bike) and so we did some intense searching for a tricycle. I was getting very disappointed because the ones I liked were way more than we wanted (or for that matter, would) spend on a tricycle. I had just about given up and decided that we would get the radio flyer (great tricycle, it just seems like everyone has one and I wanted something different, yes I'm weird).
A couple Saturdays ago we went to SAMs to order Jason's contacts and decided to walk around the store. We found this awesome 3 in 1 tricycle for 60% off. I was so excited! There was only one left so I grabbed it and we continued our browsing. I kept wishing throughout the store that there was 2 because it was the perfect tricycle for Korbin too. When we were checking out, I randomly asked the cashier if they sold the display models and they do! So we bought 2 tricycles that day for less then the price of 1!
We originally said that we were going to wait until Easter but Kyler rode the display out of the store and was already in love. We set up the other one and tested them out right away. The boys love them and are constantly trying to climb in them.
So there is our awesome buy that I'm still so excited about! 😃
Like I said, he rode it right out of the store!

The neighborhood kids loved pushing Kyler around!
Kyler was having a blast!
Korbin loved it too!
Having so much fun!
Twinners! 
The bike with everything on it!
Korbin trying it out as just a trike
The first thing each morning, they head for the bikes!
I'm gonna get in!
I think he like his bike!
Too cold to play outside, no worries we'll ride them inside!

Discovery gateway

Today was a free day at the discovery gateway so our playgroup made the trek to salt lake to try it out and boy did my boys love it.  On the way down Kyler got sick and we almost turned back but thank goodness he started feeling better.  It was crowded (obviously with it being a free day) but the boys still managed to play a ton.  Next time I'll make sure Jason can come though so that we can each take a boy, we probably could of played all day if Jason was with us :)  Either way the boys had an absolute blast.  I wish I could have taken more pictures (had my hands full most of the time), but I guess this just means Jason and I have to take the boys back :)

Riding the horsey
There was a big tube that was blowing air and you were supposed to go put paper airplanes in it.  Kyler absolutely loved it, we probably played there about 5 times while we were there. He would go put in random papers so see them fly.
The imagination playground was one of Korbin's favorite.  There was big foam shapes to create a playground but Korbin just enjoyed climbing on them.
Kyler loved the imagination playground too!
Creating a mosiac out of legos with Ricky!
These were all magnets.  Kyler didnt quite get the point but loved playing with the magnets.
Turning the crank, lit up the lightbulb, I tried showing that to Kyler but he just thought it was fun to turn the crank.  Silly boy
They had huge legos that were another favorite!
This was in the sound room, Kyler loved stomping the shoes!
Making more sound effects.
This was the construction area which was another favoite!
Climbing all around the construction area!
Making music!
I love this picture, You can just tell how much fun he was having!
This was taking through the windshild of the helicopter, I just thought it was a cool picture!
Playing in the helicopter
Both boys crashed before we got out of the parking garage.  They definitely played hard! :)

Spring fun

We have been raking in the warm weather we have been having and have been outside every chance we get.  The boys love it.  The first thing Kyler does in the morning is drag his bike to the door to try to go outside in his pjs, too bad mommy doesnt let him!  We have hated being cooped up this winter and are so looking forward to all that warm weather brings with it!

Riding bikes
Korbin is not quite tall enough for the bike so he gets the little teeter totter that he seems to think is a bike.  He goes everywhere with it, he has amazing control with it and yet he isnt walking....so silly!
The little boy that lives across the parking lot absolutely LOVES Korbin and is always wanting to play with him, its adorable!

Off-roading with the trike!
Yummy giraffe
Warm enough for no jackets!
Ready to explore!
I've started babysitting 2 little girls and one of them is Kyler's age, they love each other.  Most of the time they are over, these 2 are laughing, so cute!
I've sadly had to decide that we cant go outside while I'm babysitting until the snow and most of the moisture is gone.  Toddlers are attracted to puddles and jumping in them is best!
Our neighbors have the coolest airplane that they let us play on, the kids love it!
First of many family walks of the year!
Kyler was so excited to see the park but Korbin didnt remember it.  He was a little unsure about the swings at first!
But then he remembered how fun it was!
Kyler insisted that he wanted to be at the top of the rock wall!

Going down the slide!
We live in the best neighborhood and all the kids love to play with my boys! :)
They begged me to let them pull the boys in the wagon and the boys loved it!
Korbin tried climbing out so Kyler's friend joined in on the wagon fun!
They brought Kyler's animals over to the puddle and this is how I found them.  If you want tell the dinosaur is a couple feet away looking like he ready to attack.
He is so handsome! :)
What did I say, toddlers and puddles.  He had so much fun playing with his friend
