Today I am so thankful for my life. Even though I feel sad at times because Eric and I don't get to spend a lot of time together and with Tyler together, I am thankful that we have a home, I have a good job, and Eric has this wonderful opportunity to go to Vet school. Eric is often stressed with his school work, but he makes sure to take care of Tyler first then study because he understands the importance of this time in Tyler's life and how fast children grow. Eric is afraid of missing him grow up as am I. He is a wonderful father and Tyler's eyes just light up when he sees him. Tyler does his little spaz dance and smiles. We absolutely cherish Tyler and every little noise, smile, and expression that he does. His little spirit is so sweet and precious. I almost feel a little guilty because he really is an easy baby to take care of. He is now starting to move a lot more. Today he was having tummy time and scooted in a complete circle and off of his play mat. He also did it in under 20 minutes. He is great at doing push ups. He has learned to take his pacifier out of his mouth, but can't quite get it back in. He loves his toes to be played with and he likes his diaper to be changed because that is when mommy makes funny faces and dances and sings to him. He also likes his picture to be taken and then I put the pictures on the computer and he sits still to watch them. He is also still when a book is being read to him and tries to turn the pages. He is infatuated with trying to suck on mommy and daddy's fingers and sometimes I think that he is trying to see how hard he can chomp down. The best of all is that I think he really knows that he is loved. Eric made that comment today then wandered if he really knows what love is. I said I don't think he knows what the word love really means, but that he knows the concept of love. I think everything Tyler knows is related to love, because that is all that we have shown him. He has not experienced anything else. I can see that Tyler knows this by looking in his eyes and seeing how he looks at me. It is a very special moment that I share with him and when he is being loving, he puts his hands on my face then puts his head to mine and my heart melt. A mother's love is so great.
Tyler loves his baths and looks so cute later in his lion towel.
Here are Tyler's Christmas shots.
Tyler has started making noises that sounds like he is saying "Ho, Ho, Ho!"
This is his new face that he makes a lot. It makes his cheeks pop out more and we just love to kiss them even more.
1st time Tyler put his foot in his mouth . He thought his toes tasted yummy.
This is Tyler in his Sunday best. His expression is just price less.

Tyler is a doll. It is sad to think that by the time I finally get to meet him he will be 1 years old, and running around or at least crawling around. Thanks for the posts. It makes me miss you more, but it also makes me happy to see how you are doing.
Your commments about being parents are beautiful. Tyler is very blessed.
My dear long lost friend!
My mother showed me your blogspot and your son is beautiful! I have missed you very much. I hope you have a very merry Christmas with your cherub. Drop me an email sometime if you've got the time. I'm glad to see you doing so well. All my love!
