My Boys

Another great night! Tyler didn't get up to nurse until 7am!!!! Then Derek got up with the boys when they woke up and let me stay in bed till 9am. He always does that on his mornings off. He's so nice to me! He makes Tyson's breakfast and takes care of Tyler till I get up. He read to the boys this morning. They are so cute! Tyson helped dada put the laundry sorter together, too. I love my boys, big and small!!!! Which brings me to my next point. Stay tuned!!!

God made sleep...and it was good!

Sweet Baby Tyler slept in his own room for the 1st time last night. I've been putting it off because he gets up to nurse at about 6 in the morning and I didn't want to have to trek across the house, because our house is a mansion and huge ya know! He is a morning person. So, I have to brake him of that and thought him being in his own room would help. No child of mine can be a morning person! I refuse to get up before 8:30am. So I heard Tyler crying at about 5:45 and went across the house and nursed him. I put him back to bed and didn't get up until 8:50 when my dad called. I couldn't believe it! Sleep, Glorious Sleep!!!! I don't know if he woke up and was crying and I just didn't hear him or if he just miraculously slept. He usually goes back to bed until about 7 or 8 and then he's bright eyed and bushy tailed. I on the other hand am ticked that he's up so early. He didn't get up until 10:15 this morning. I kept going in and checking on him to make sure he was ok. Hopefully we have found a new way of life! Tyson has always been a wonderful sleeper. He was getting up between 8:30 and 9am before we moved. When we moved to our new house, he got a new big boy bed and stared coming in my room around 8. I was very upset about that. I had Derek go to Home Depot and get those pull down blinds that block the sun, which Tyson has had his whole life. That made a huge difference. He didn't get up until 9:15 today! Thank you Jesus!!! My life is back on track!!!!

Movin and groovin with my new tooth

Baby Tyler got his first tooth today! FINALLY!!! It's been right under the gum for a long time. He's not handling teething as well as Tyson did.

This is Tyler's way of crawling. He gets around everywhere!!! We can't leave anything laying around anymore.

My First Post....Who knew my 1 year old could count to 10?

Ok, so this is my first time blogging. I didn't get my templet perfect, but if I wait till then, I'll never start blogging! Last month I was doing something around the house and thought I heard Tyson count to 10. I wasn't sure, so I just went about my day. That night I told my mom and sister that I thought I heard Tyson count to 10. They said, naa. The next day I asked him to count and by golly, he counted to 10. I couldn't believe it! I'm not sure what age children start counting, that wasn't the amazing thing. It's that nobody taught him how. I certainly didn't. I asked around and nobody else did either. Then I realized......Thank you Dora! Actually, I think it was a group effort. Thank you Dora and Diego! Who ever said that tv was bad for children obviously didn't meet Dora. And they obviously had more time than I do to teach their children to count. I guess I'm just lucky it's in english and not spanish. Maybe he can count in spanish, I'll have to ask him tomorrow!
