Kyler and "Dads" Sphinx project!

This year for the Grade 5's project was Egypt!  The kids in Kyler's class got to pick various items to make or build or cook something from the Egypt era. Kyler picked the "Sphinx" !  So Kyler and dad took at least a month of planning, building, sanding, glueing, and painting the above "Sphinx". It is all built out of wood and it  turned out great !  Kyler got a perfect mark on his assignment !    The class and the rest of the school had a "Night at the Museum" show off night , with all the projects on display.......great work everyone ! Next in grade 6 it will be "Indian Projects".  Maybe Kyler and Dad can build a T-PEE next!! ??

Kijins BUZZZZZZ cut

 Before.....

After.....

Our little Kijin has grown so much and is talking up a storm lately!  The above photo was just last week, enjoying his first "whole" ice-cream cone and of course his before long hair photo.  Kijin HATES haircuts !  Screams and screams, while the poor hairdresser is trying to cut his hair. This time I had to hold him in the chair with no capes on! Tears, running nose and hair all over the place, but the end result was a cute one!  Soooo much cooler too for him, since he sweats like anything!  Kyler got his hair cut too ! ( with a McDonalds bribe he got it buzzed off too! ) 
Kijin is starting to talk a bit more now...a few words we hear often now are, "mine!" "no" "train, bus, truck, A, " and a few more! He is still doing great in daycare, picks up every virus under the sun still, colds, fevers, etc ! 

Here is his, chilling out with his glasses on, ready for mom to take him around the Oshawa Zoo. We took Kyler here years ago and its a really nice zoo to go for a few hours to check out the animals......mostly farm animals but a few exotic animals there too. It was just Kijin and I having a fun morning....while Dad and Kyler were at home working on the deck!!

Our little Kijin will be 2 already on June 18th........I think it will be a "Thomas the Tank Engine" themed birthday !

Kijin's shape ball

 WOW !  Our smart little Kijin has the shape ball down pat already!!!  Smart little monkey can get all the shapes in by himself now. He needs some help pulling it apart and shaking out all the shapes.......but once thats done , he goes right at it and gets those shape pieces in. UMMMMM !  He soon will figure out again on how to get out of his play area and or his crib I know it!!

New Pickering Go Bridge

Here we are on a Sunday checking out the new Pickering Go Bridge that goes over the 401 near the Pickering Town Centre Mall.  Kijin loves "Trains" so we could have been here all day watching the "Go Trains" going in and out of the Pickering Go Station!   CHEW CHEW ! Kijin says !
