Tyler James

Also known as Ty, munchkin, Thor, peanut, squeaker, squirt, buddy, cutie... The poor kid is going to be really confused when he gets to Kindergarten.
I now understand what mothers mean when they talk about not thinking your heart could contain so much love. Tyler came into the world on December 15 weighing 6 lb and 3 oz and was 18 3/4 inches long. He is itty bitty and the cutest little thing ever!Within an hour of birth he was already lifting his head up, pulling his hat over his eyes to block the light, and finding and sucking his fist and fingers. Pretty big feats for such a little guy.
My mom tells me I'm really lucky and that he is such a good little baby. We had to work a bit at nursing but he picked it up pretty good and is now a pro. He cries when he is hungry or cold or getting his diaper changed, but other than that he just sits there and looks around, when he's not sleeping. Even when he cries they're just little cries usually, though he's starting to get more vocal now he's 2 weeks old. He's had very little spit up and usually burps himself.
As I said he is now getting very vocal including lots of squeaks, thus the name squeaker. He squeaks while sleeping, eating, fussing, crying, all the time. He also gets really bad hiccups, the poor kid, that make his entire little body shake, and they last forever.He's also starting to smile, which is so cute. Basically we have the cutest, most loved and spoiled baby. His mom and dad love to hold him and do everything they can to make him happy. He's such a sweet little angel, and we love him so much!
