There will be days like this

This is how Everlee decided she was going to push the stroller today. 

And she continued to do it this way all afternoon. There is never a shortage of laughs around the Kneifl house. 

It was also fun to have Cooper and Hollie over for a short play date before nap time today. She loves it when Cooper chases her! It's so adorable to watch these two play. 

There's an app for that

Tyler joined a new club this semester at ISU. It is the Enactus Club. It is an entrepreneur's group that meets on Wednesday evenings. He is still a member of the MIS club but attends this groups meetings since they are at the same time. This is the new app they designed, Tabsaver. It is pretty self explanatory. Where was this technology when I went to school?! Tyler would like everyone to download this app. Then when traffic increases, people place ads and they get paid! 

Outdoors

With the gorgeous weather today we decided to enjoy it for an hour before nap time. 

Everlee is more and more independent everyday. Today it was putting her hat on all by herself;)

We did bubbles, drew art with sidewalk chalk, went on a walk and swung on Maci's swing. All the while she talked and talked. She is becoming quite the conversationalist:)

Busy Thursday

When the hat goes on that means it's getting goofy real fast..and she always does. 

I love that she has a big craft drawer to pick what she wants to do. Today she strung noodles on pipe cleaners. All while in the squatting position. 

I was cleaning my bowl from lunch and Ev saw me. She said "more cook" and "up". She took my bowl and I lifted her to sit and she started her recipe. 

Acting goofy, making a craft and cooking..all in a day's work for this sweetie;)

College Gameday

Friday night they pre recorded the ESPNU episode of college Gameday in Johnny's. 

Tyler is holding up the "Hi Dan Miller!" sign. We couldn't stop laughing about that all day. 

He also was holding up the male genitalia  sign. 

We had the Smiths and Pluegers over to watch the game. What a great Cyclone victory! 

Talkative Tuesday

She wanted my orange for lunch and she wanted to peel it herself. 

Then apparently she couldn't gobble up her lunch unless she used my fork.

Today she told me (which I've never heard her say before) "watch cartoon."  This is how she wanted to watch it while playing with her playdoh. 

After nap we took advantage of the 45 degree afternoon and headed outside for a walk. 

We made our way down to the Miller's to swing. It was so nice to get a little fresh air today:)

Des Moines Register

The game day bus came rolling into Ames for the first time in ISU history. They let the students sign the bus. 

The bus was parked next to the campers since Thursday. 

The digs for 36 hours. 3 of the 8 pics in the DM Register Tyler was in. 

Pre college Gameday

Thursday after class Tyler was the fifth tent to set up. The local news has been doing live reports from Hilton. 

Friday afternoon I brought a care package up to the campsite. Some of the players had come by to check out their loyal fans. Cyclone tv was their interviewing for their program. 

Tyler was interviewed by the local news Friday night. 

A peak at the set in Johnny's

How about another with Jay Williams

And let's not forget Rece Davis

In the college game day RV. Tyler and the  driver became instant friends. 

A first look at one of Tylers signs. 

Two Toddler Thursday

Thursday we had Cooper over with us while Hollie rested. I brought some old scrapbooking paper and stickers over for the craft activity. Both kids were very intent and serious on their projects. 

Another favorite activity is to sing Ring around the Rosie. Everlee's favorite part is when I say, "we all fall down!" It quickly became Coopers favorite part too. Both of them fell down laughing. 

Playing hide n seek. 

Cooper coming around the corner...he found Everlee! 

They couldn't resist playing hide n seek in the bathroom. If u know their master bath set up you know where I'm sitting;)
