TYLER

Our big boy, Tyler! What do I say? The kid cracks me up! The things that come out of his mouth are hilarious. Sure, he still throws his fits here and there, which extremely frustrate me and require that glass of wine at night, but the smiles and laughs that he brings to my day are full of joy! Tyler is just beyond 2 years old. He is still shy at first when he meets people, but once he warms up, he is a stitch and will hug and kiss you good-bye when it is time to leave. He prays every night. He loves hot dogs! He also loves m & m's. He knows most of his colors. He can count to 10 and we are working on counting to 20. He loves to sing and dance. Right now he has two favorite songs: Down by Jay Sean and Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus. I'm pretty sure that I know almost all of the lyrics to both songs. He loves fruit loops, apple juice, and chocolate milk. He loves his baths, but hates knowing that the day is over and he has to stop playing. He always wants everything, and if he can't have it, a fit is thrown. He just started to know what a booger is and his finger has traveled up the nose a time or two. He still is my shadow and goes wherever I go. (I take a bath with him in the bathroom with me.) Tyler loves choo choo trains and Mickey Mouse. These past two years with Tyler have been amazing. He's a terrific kid and I'm proud that Lee and I are his parents!

Tyler loves to put my headbands on. ALL OF THEM!
Lee always tries to get Tyler to nap longer than what Tyler wants to. On this day, Tyler woke up from nap, but Lee wanted to nap more. Lee went up to Tyler's bed and made Tyler sleep more by sleeping with him.

This is Tyler's picture-taking stance. He puts one leg back every time he takes a picture.

Our little Adidas man.

Tyler and my mom played with this pickle jar for probably 30 minutes last weekend. Tyler really enjoyed taking the lid off and then screwing it back on.

Such a sweetheart!

Whenever there is food...Tyler is there! This is him begging for some of Lee's pie. Also, he had just gotten his diaper changed, so the pants were left off, but the slippers needed to be kept on. He got these slippers from my mom for x-mas. He loves them!!!

We've received some gifts from Lee's aunts and uncles for Tyler and Brady. One that came in the mail the other day had styrofoam popcorn pieces. Tyler loved playing with and jumping on them.
