New floor Remodel

So we decided Tile was too hard on knees and little babies heads, so we took one saturday and put in new laminate wood flooring. Thanks to a lot of help from family and friends, we started at about 8 and were done by 4. Though, the transitions are still not in yet.

Milestone

Real Fast, just wanted to announce that Ty took his first two steps all by his self today. Woo hoo Ty!!

Catch-up continued

Here are pics for now, it's late so I'll try to add some videos and captions tomorrow... okay how about 3 weeks later. here you go.Helping place the Angel Moroni (yes really an angel Moroni)


Rocking Rudolf, for the first few weeks after G-ma got this Ty would scream with terror whenever he was near this thing. He eventually overcame his fear as you can see.

It's hard to keep pants on when you don't have a butt.


Ty often looks longingly outside, he LOVES the outdoors!


Best Buds already, Moose is actually really good with Ty.


Again, Telling us he wants to be outside, he's big into pointing now. Can you tell he's been crawling all over the dirty floor, poor pants.

This would be the main reason he was pointing outside, he loves his swing.


Happy One Year!! We had a pirate party, ARRRR!

This was my last minute costume for Ty, not too bad I think. I like his little wink look.


How do you resist a smile like that!

This is right before Brannen made him cry.
Kind of sounds like the start of mine and Lisa's relationship too.
You can also barely make out a baby bump there under Ty.


Sportin' the Santa Hat

Jared's brother Wes with Destin and Kamren to the side.

Christmas Eve (as you can see by the date) playing "Tommy Right".

Christmas Morning, new toy from G-ma.

The Catch-up continues, but first...

Am I a boy or a girl???

ANOTHER BOY!!!!!
Before Ty was born we called him Thor. This one we call "Loki". Jared and his sister came up with this one and it just stuck. Unfortunately I think they have cursed us because Loki is the Nordic god of mischief. And I can tell one thing for sure so far, he is very active and strong.
They said everything looks healthy though they did find a cyst in his brain. They said this is fairly common however and should go away in a few weeks with no problems left behind. In some rare cases it can cause some birth defects. Personally, I think it means he's going to get my freaky thumbs, much to the chagrin of his father.

Catch up

So all during my Christmas break I meant to catch up on my blogging. Well, break is over and I failed so here is my first attempt to catch up. First is Tyler's first Holloween. He was going to be a pirate but I never found time to make the costume. So, he wore his glow in the dark skeleton onesie and seemed just fine with it. We weren't to into trick or treating, since Ty is allergic to corn syrup and so can't have 95% of the candy out there, we we went to the ward trunk or treat, which is actually a table and treat in someones back yard.
it was all decked out with a graveyard and creepy statues. Here's him and dad in fron of the graveyard.


This is infront of the creepy guy. Can you blame Ty for being a little weary. It talked too.


And this was Ty's first taste of chocolate, the only candy I could give him. he would have been more impressed if he wasn't distracted with climbing all over the desk daddy was building.
Shortly after he and aunt "kiwi" decided to start a band. unfortunately it ended the same way many bands do, with drama.


Thanksgiving.
Exploring Gma and Gpa's back yard.
