Nyles' Adventures

Nyles is growing everyday, both physically and mentally.  He says the funniest and cutest things.  He's definitely learning new words every day.  It's crazy the amount of things he remembers.  I love hearing him say "Please (pees).  Thank you (tank oo).  Excuse me (cooz me).  Baby (beebee).  Help (hup)  Yep.  More.  Truck.  Done.  Up.  Boat. "    He loves taking a toy to bed w/ him also.  He takes a truck, a book, a train, or something w/ him.  Sometimes he takes a few things, so after he goes to bed I take them out of his crib so he doesn't bump into them while he's sleeping.  He sure does move around a lot at night.  We plan to keep him in his crib for a while, but we did turn his car seat around this past week and he is LOVING it.  He's really enjoying being able to see more of what we can see.

He had his 2 year Dr appointment on the 13th.  Here were his stats:

• Weight:  25.5 pounds, 18th percentile
• Height:  32.25 inches, 47th percentile
• Head Circumference:  19.4 inches, 65th percentile

Here are some pics from his latest adventures:

He likes to help me cook.

He helped me during our Stake Pioneer Breakfast Celebration.  We had activities for all the Primary kids.  Our station was milking a cow and roping a horse.  Nyles thought it was so much fun.  He especially liked playing w/ Steve Drage (the husband to our Primary President).  I think he thought it looked like Grandpa Hegerhorst because he called him Grandpa several times.
