Merry First Christmas!

FIRST CHRISTMAS PRESENT!!!

Our Blogger Baby got to open his VERY FIRST Christmas present! What a surprise we got when it came in the mail! It was TOO funny when he was opening it! Ryan got it on video. Ty couldn't choose between the wrapping paper or the toy...paper, toy...paper, toy! haha...Thanks Aunt Pat and Bob!!! That was SUPER awesome of you guys to send that down here! It meant alot to me that you thought of our little Ty!

Crazy Hats

Ty's crazy hat! Isn't it just too cute??? I love it! Mom was just sure Ryan wouldn't like it and would probably kill me for buying it, but he does like it! I knew he would, he thinks it looks like a little court jester's hat. I agree! Plus, it's warm and toasty on top of adorable!!!

Our Family

I thought it was high time I add a picture of our little family! I just love the family that God has blessed me with! It's SO awesome! Ty has his new snowsuit and his new crazy hat! =)

And...yes...Ryan is officially growing his hair back! Three cheers!!!!!!!! Hip hip Hooray! Hip hip Hooray! Hip hip Hooray!

Mom and dad drove over for a visit this past weekend! I always love when they come to see me...*or do they just come to see Ty now?* hmmm...haha! Dad went duck hunting with Ryan for his first time. Ryan got a banded duck and was SO excited. For those who don't know, a banded duck is one that has been captured before and a silver band placed on it's leg. They have a number to call if you kill one of them, so you can get a certificate of where and when the duck was banded. Sometime, the bands have cash rewards on them!

Mom, Ty, and I went shopping while the guys were out hunting and had a blast! It's been FOREVER since I've gotten to shop so I really had a big time! I went through the Children's Place store while mom sat out on one of the mall benches to feed Ty while he sat in his stroller. Once I came out, she said matter-of-factly, "I fed Ty his two jars of food." To this I gave my shocked reply, "TWO jars??? He only eats one jar at a sitting. I brought the other one just in case we were out for long." Mom just shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well, he must have been hungry." *uh...I think he hoodooed Grandma!*

Friday night, Deanna, Ty, and I went to a children's Christmas play that Andrea's church hosted. It was really cute. The title was "Angel's Aware." The kids did a fabulous job and at the close, Andrea, Deanna, Joce, Ty, and I went out to eat together at Pizza Hut. We had a wonderful time! It was nice getting out of the house for a while.

The First Flood of Ty "Foto's"

Yes...that's real straw in his mouth, and no, we didn't make him pose like that. He wouldn't sit down...he kept standing up and leaning over to grab the straw off the ground and we couldn't get a good picture so I told her to just give him a piece and that's exactly what he did with it. He grabbed it, stuck it in his mouth, sat down, and she snapped the shot!

This one is his Aunt. Andrea's favorite! I love it too! I think he has a super flirty look on his face..."yeah girls, I know I'm cute!" And yes sir! He sure is!!!

Mom thinks that this one looks like it was taken back in the depression times. =) I think he looks like a little paper boy about to yell "Extra, extra, read all about it!"

Last but not least...not least at all...there's two other picture posts below this one...haha...

Ty, bless his heart, has got...*drum roll*...FOUR TEETH! His little nose is running and he's been coughing to beat the band. And let me tell you, I now know the meaning of the word FUSSY!
fuss·y - [fuhs-ee] –adjective, fuss·i·er, fuss·i·est.
1. excessively busy with trifles; anxious or particular about petty details.
2. hard to satisfy or please

Uh, #2 seems to be the best fit with how I would describe him right now. We bought some easy dissolve tablets that will numb his achy gums. So hopefully he'll be feeling at least a little better with those.

Ryan and I are doing splendid! He has continued to work diligently in our room! I am beside myself to move into it! It has almost been a year since we've had a bedroom! *SHOCK!* That's what happens though when you decide to remodel and are low on funds ...you do what you can, when you can. It's going to look awesome and I think it will also be a GREAT get away for us. I'm sure we'll appreciate our room SO much more since we've gone so long without one. God certainly has a way of teaching patience and thankfulness!

The Second Surplus of Ty Snapshots!

Ty sitting in his Great-Papaw Gid's lap!

Don't you just LOVE that look on his face! I do! It's one, if not my most favorite of all the pictures because it's just so him!!!


Ug...don't they make him look older though? *sniff* My baby is growing up on me!
