Yellowstone National Park

On Friday, I got a call from daycare that Bryant tripped and hit his head on the slide and got a really good knot on his head.  Poor little guy is going to get quite a good black eye, but he doesn't seem too affected by it.
 
We decided to head back to the cabin for the weekend again and snuggled up for a movie and popcorn on Friday night.


 
On Saturday, we headed to Yellowstone National Park to see Old Faithful.  It was pretty cold all weekend, so we didn't stay outside very much.



 
Bryant was ready to go before Old Faithful went off, so he kept telling everyone that "it's over"

 
After the park, we headed back to the cabin and mommy and Bryant responded to their ALS ice bucket challenge...BRRRR!
 
 
 
After we warmed up a bit, we played outside for a short period of time.
 
 



 
We found some really big mushrooms on the ground that Bryant loved to kick.


"Ooooooo!"
 Then we raced back to the cabin
 
The winner was...Bryant!

Baseball Game

Bryant loves to go to baseball games and last night we went to our fourth Brewer's game.  The whole car ride in, Bryant was getting ready by talking about the baseball game and of course, putting on his sunglasses.
 
This was by far the most fun he had at the game because a foul ball came our way and daddy caught it!  He was so excited to get a baseball!

 
Later on in the game, a very nice man gave Bryant the 1st baseman's baseball card (I'm guessing it was the player's dad).  Bryant was so excited and cheered extra hard for him.  He even got a double and Bryant kept saying "second, second".  Keep an eye out for Alan Sharkey!  Here's the sleepy little boy with all his loot from the game:)

Cabin and More

I haven't updated the blog in a couple weeks, so I have a lot of pictures and videos to share.  The first video I had to capture because I think it is so cute.  Before bed, Bryant and I sing songs.  He only knows some of the words and hums the rest, but he has been getting really good at his alphabet.
 
This video was taken after Bryant got his second haircut.  He was really shy when they cut his hair, but he had so much fun showing off his new hairdo!
 
 
I can't remember all of the activities that we did over the past couple weeks and don't have pictures to refresh my memory.  But not too long ago, we went to the Last Chance Splash Park in Helena.  Bryant was really cautious playing in the pool (partially because he almost fell asleep on the way) and towards the end, we had to be on our toes because he would jump in without even looking.  Afterwards, we stopped at Dairy Queen for a treat and he got his first dilly bar.
 

 
All that fun can wear a little kid out!  We hadn't even made it out of the parking lot and he was asleep.

 
Bryant got a tool kit paint set for his birthday.  This was the first time I have let him paint at home, but I think we will have to do it more often because he had a lot of fun!


 
Bryant found one of daddy's old hats and put it on.  He was too cute in his Bobcat jersey to not take a picture.

 
Bryant got scratch n sniff stickers for his birthday too.  He thought they were great, so we captured the fun with a little selfie:)

 
Now for this weekend...we headed to the cabin and headed to the Discovery Center in West Yellowstone.  They had wolf packs


Climbing on the fake wolf den

They had 2 bald eagles


 
And Bears

 
But the most fun part was the playground at the end!





 
They had a big teepee set up too.  Bryant would just run around and around in circles.



 
It was nice weather at the cabin, so we ate most meals outside

 
We did some exploring

 
This was way more fun to blow than a dandelion!

 
Bryant wasn't a big fan of the family photo opportunity


 
Bryant helped daddy mow the lawn.  I think he liked having a steering wheel instead of the two arms like daddy's lawn mower, but daddy definitely likes his zero turn better:)

 
Bryant jumped off anyting he could find at the cabin.  Logs, rocks, you name it!






 
My little explorer sure had fun this weekend!
