Ty's Birthday

I know this sounds SO cliche, but seriously, where did time go? A year ago today I held this tiny baby in my arms...

And now I have a BIG One Year Old?! A little bit about our Ty Ty: He can stand up by himself but when he realizes it he sits down, he still loves his bottles, he eats basically anything we give him but his favorites are watermelon and tomatoes, he loves his "da da" he is such a good napper (two 2 hour naps a day) He waves bye bye when he is tired or wants to go outside, he took his first step two days ago, he loves books (monkey jumping on the bed) he loves to give kisses, he still gets into everything (we just put locks on all cabinets) he still puts everything in his mouth, he dances whenever he hears music, he still doesn't cuddle much but when he does its with his mom :)

He LOVED his cake! I didn't think he would get into it, but he did! His lap was covered I had to rinse him off in the sink, he loved it.

He got spoiled with presents. Grandma Vogie got him this cute hat and he kept it on for most of the night, he looked adorable.

I have mentioned how much he loves music, this little keyboard was a favorite for sure!

He has always been more serious than smiley

Happy Birthday our Sweet Little Ty. You have brought more love and joy into our lives than we could have hoped for. We love you forever!!

the haircut

before... the 15 long minutes of this boy screaming like i was doing the worse thing to him known to babies...

after... actually a few days after, it took him that long to recover and forgive his mommy...

for making him look handsome as ever!
Ty, one day you will thank me for holding you down and cutting your beautiful hair so that every woman we ran into would stop saying what a beautiful girl you were.

im so glad when daddy comes home...

We are SO happy that daddy is finally home! He left us for three weeks to sale security systems, and can I just say it was a lot harder than I thought it would be! It got pretty lonely at times, and I was so exhausted by the end of each day (I think being prego, working, and having Ty may have had something to do with that) but it did help me realize what a helpful husband I have and how we are lucky to be able to see each other every day. Ty knew that something was different, he couldn't get enough of grandpa and his uncles and he also started calling my phone "dada"

Since Dan has been home Ty is literally attached to his hip! It is really cute but I am sure Dan is feeling like he can't accomplish much. Every time he leaves the room Ty follows him, when he is working in his office Ty is by his door crying for him to come out. Dan went outside to take some pictures of his paintings and Ty was heart broken that he wasn't allowed to come out with him. This picture breaks my heart too but I had to post it because its so dang cute at the same time. I am still trying to figure out where he gets his sensitivity from...
