Busy Boy


     Kirk's play at home now involves crazy scenarios with runaway trains, crashing and exploding towers and of course, Buzz Lightyear saving the day.  I took this picture last Saturday morning after I had "helped" him assemble his Lego Toy Story train, build a tower and a bridge out of alphabet blocks (notice it "exploded") and he set up his Lego zoo over on the side, "so the elephants wouldn't stomp on the train."  He played for about 45 minutes with all of these toys, and the story line would have made a really great action movie!  His ability to pretend play amazes me, and sometimes he lets me add to the story, and sometimes he just wants me to play along.  Thank goodness we had the "real Buzz" to save us all from destruction!  To infinity and beyond! 



Happy birthday to Brady!  Kirk encouraged Brady to "eat your cake!" at his birthday party on Saturday, January 28th.  Kirk had a great time celebrating with Brady, and he loved all of Brady's Thomas the Train decorations!  He went along the table cloth naming all of the trains, and he was very "patient" (or so he said) while he was waiting for his own piece of cake.


Kirk enjoyed his cake, ice cream, and of course his party hat!


Kirk LOVES party horns!


      This is a quick video of Kirk shaking his new "giant glow stick" at the Marshall basketball game on Wednesday, January 25th.  Kirk loves to "go crazy" cheering for the Herd and wave his glow stick in the air when the lights go out at the beginning of the game.  He even knows now that the video clip at the end will be Coach Herrion saying "Go Herd!"  He won his first Gino's pizza a this game and he was super proud of himself!  The people that sit around us were so proud of him for winning his pizza and they always tell Jeremy and I how impressed they are with how Kirk enjoys the games and cheers so well!  We are definitely raising a little Herd fan!
