14 months!

*I give up, I wrote this a couple weeks ago, but I was waiting for a picture with my 14 month sticker, but I have seemed to misplace them! blah! Hopefully they show up sooner than later!

Akoy is 14 months! It's amazing how much they grow! I called Akoy my baby today and Bryson said, Akoy is not your baby anymore, he's a toddler! He has been running everywhere! He still falls a ton, but doesn't care. He's a boy, that is what scrapes and bruises are for!

*We moved from two naps to one. He's been waking up cranky, so we started giving him a bottle at 7, putting him back down, and then he sleeps until 8:30-9ish. Finally 12 hours!
*7 teeth, with one cutting! I'm so done with teething, Akoy does not do well with each one! :(
* 32 in 27 lbs- 95% in both
*He does the hand actions to Baby Bumblebee, patty cake, and itzy bitzy spider. So cute to watch him attempts to do it all.
*Says mom, more, juice, milk, dad, up, ya
*He will pull books off the shelf and look at the pictures.
*blows kisses and give hugs
*He knows how to unlock my phone. Sorry in advance for random calls!
*He climbs out of everything! He loves to climb out of his high chair and on top of the table. I had to go buy a new high chair just to keep him down.
*Lately he cuddles me and starts watching something on my phone. Super cute and I LOVE it!
*Yesterday he brought me a cup and lid and said juice, it was sooo cute! I loved how he said juice!
*He is starting to throw a tantrum when I get mad at him or he doesn't get his way. He puts both hands on his face and gives a fake cry. Sometimes it's funny, others not so funny.

I was thinking about entering Akoy in the Gap casting call thing, and here is my attempt at taking a picture of Akoy. I didn't end up entering it, I couldn't get the perfect picture.

After church one day, don't you love all the bruises on his head? 

ha, gotta love it!

Martain's Hillside Orchard

Last week, some of us girls convinced our husbands to come home early from studying! :) We did have to trade some time, but it was well worth it! (Bryson usually doesn't study on Saturday's but it was worth the trade) This place was half an hour away and after going on some dirt roads, we arrived.

We started going through a corn maze, followed by riding some John Deere tricycles. My brothers had the exact same one growing up, so it was fun to see Akoy ride them. We had to take advantage of the picture moments! Akoy was having a ball!

-Please excuse my son picking his nose!-

Then we walked through the orchard and picked some apples. It was so cute to watch Bryson and Akoy spend some time together. Bryson just walked through the orchard with him. Akoy kept picking apples and trying to eat them. He doesn't really like the skin though.

Last Saturday, we also went over to the Ellis to watch the Nebraska game, could these two be any cuter? I think not!

"Lost in Fun" and Apple Picking

Akoy and I are always looking for fun things to do. My friend Torrie found this place called "Lost In Fun" It is basically an indoor play area. It has a couple of big playground sets, Blow up bounce places, a foam pit and more! We went at the perfect time. Since Akoy has taken flight with his walking, he was everywhere. Two weeks ago this place wouldn't have been as fun. Akoy loved having so many toys and so many friends.
At one point he came out of a firestation with two drinks. His face was priceless. It was like, "look mom, these are sooo cool!" I knew they weren't his but I was letting him bring them to me anyways. Another little boy runs up to him and says the drinks are his and took them. The boy took them away and Akoy just moved on to another toy.
Akoy loved when I threw him in the foam pit. He would sometimes get a little frustrated when he couldn't move around as well.

Apple Picking

The other day we went to a house that was in our ward. They opened their apple trees to the ward to pick. Akoy and I enjoyed getting some fresh apples! Yummy! Akoy doesn't eat apple slices, but loves to much on some apples!

And a few more just cuz I love him!
