Two Years Ago...

Andy and I are celebrating our two year anniversary today. It has been a fun filled two years with moving, having a baby, starting new jobs, and just loving life together. I am looking forward to many more fun times in our future! Here are some of our memories from two years ago...

Life as I know it...

...is about to change drastically!

Tyler has started pulling himself up on furniture and standing while holding on...

he is crawling and climbing up stairs...

drinking from a sippy cup...

standing up in his crib (we've lowered it since then)...

and sucking his thumb if there is no Binky in sight (this one is not life changing for us).

He is growing up so fast and I know I say that a lot, but it is so true.

Christmas Fun...

Christmas is almost here...

I cannot even believe that Christmas is in 2 days! Wow, this has been a very fast year for us. We have been preparing for Santa to come. Our decorations are far off the floor away from Tyler's little hands and crawling body. Our 7 1/2 foot tree is on a table in our living room and it doesn't have ornaments on the bottom foot or so of it. I think Tyler is asking for his two front teeth this year and his wish may come true. They will be arriving very soon. He visited Santa Claus the other day and was not too impressed. Santa scared him so much that he yelled and cried so loud.

"Who is this big, fat, jolly guy, Mom?"

A childproof Christmas!

We sent out 2 versions of Christmas cards this year. One of just Tyler (done at the portrait studio) and the card that we put together at the last minute. This made the cut for the 2nd card.

And since some of my friends are showing their runner up Christmas pictures on their blogs, here is ours. The story of our lives. Ahhhh!

Tourette the Turtle...

Here is an example of a toy you might not want to give your 8 month old little boy. Yes, this toy does have Tourette's. Just play the video and you will see...

You Spin Me Right Round Baby Right Round...

Baby It's Cold Outside...

Well, we have finally gotten our first big snow of the season and boy is it cold here. The snow is so beautiful and not so hard to drive in this year thanks to the new Tahoe with 4 wheel drive. That is a life saver! Tyler is wondering what all the "white stuff" is as we drive along in the car and look out the front window. He even waved to the snow yesterday. Such a silly boy.

Here is our house in the snow. We got about 10 inches yesterday alone!

I don't know if you can see the thermometer in the car...it says 5 degrees! Isn't it beautiful though?
