My Big Boy

Tyler slept in his crib last night for the first time. He did much better than Mommy did. He slept like an angel...mommy on the other hand had to keep checking on him. I don't know why, but my heart just felt lonely without him in our room. And I missed waking up to him this morning too. Every morning he lays in his pack-n-play and plays and talks to himself. And this morning I didn't have that and it made me so sad. I had to rush in his room when I woke up...and he was still sleeping. In fact, he must have slept great because I had to wake him up for school (that's what we call daycare)! And he's just next door to my room....Imagine what I'll do when he stays away from me for the first time. I'll really be heartbroken!

So In Love

Dear Tyler,

Last night you did the sweetest, yet simplest thing in the world and but it just made my heart melt. I was holding you and feeding you your bottle and you stared straight at me the entire time. And then you took your hand and just put it on my cheek and held it there for the longest time. I know it was so simple, but my heart just melted. You have the sweetest, most cheerful personality and I love every single minute with you. I still look at you and can not believe that your daddy and I got so blessed with such a sweet and lovable baby. You have definitely won mommy over! You get cuter and cuter every day. I could just eat you up!!! And you have the sweet little giggle. Your daddy loves to tickle you. But now, when you see him coming you start giggling before he ever even touches you. It's so funny. You just light up my life. And I am so, so, so in love with you.

Love, Mommy

Angie's Big Splurge!

After months of debating I finally broke down and bought a Nikon camera! I reasoned that I was missing so many 'kodak' moments so I really, really 'needed' this camera. Needless to say, I wore Tyler out today taking pictures. I think I ended up taking 137 pictures!!! Yes...in one day I took that many. Here's a few of my favorites. (I don't think I did too bad for my first try. Of course, it may have something to do with this cute, adorable baby!) He is getting bigger and bigger each day! Today he laid in the floor and just squeeled and screamed with excitement...for 2 hours! Frank and I just sat back and watched and got so tickled watching him. He is just perfect and boy, oh boy do I love this little guy. I keep thinking, I can't imagine loving him more. And yet, everytime I look at him, my love grows and grows. He's just precious!
