HAPPY EASTER!


Like most, I broke my New Year's Resolution before the New Year really even began! I had said that I was going to be more diligent in updating the blog . . . well, it's over 3 months since that last post! Anyways . . .

Happy Easter Everyone! It is Easter Sunday and this is a picture we took this morning of Tyler on the swing at a playground right by our house. It's a beautiful day today and we just love being outside.

Ty is doing fantastic! He is a little over 9 months old. The stats from his last doctor's visit . . . 22 lbs. 4 oz., 30 inches long. He has two teeth on the bottom which are just so adorable. More are certainly on the way. In fact, you can see the two top ones making their way through his gums. They should be here soon. He is now eating everything and anything. Last night he tried some pasta for the first time. It was very yummy!!

Tyler loves playing with his toys. Although he is not crawling yet (something everyone tells us we should be thankful for), he really prefers to prop himself up on the furniture and stand tall. Like his mom, Tyler works best on a schedule and really is like clockwork when it comes to napping, eating and bedtime.

We are all looking forward to the beautiful spring weather and have a busy schedule ahead. As usual, we have lots of grandparents planning visits to see us and we start swim lessons and a music class this week. We are anxious to get Tyler in the swimming pool and interacting with some more children.

We miss you all very much and know we will see you all very soon on our next New York visit!
