Ty 1 month old!

****Oh and by the way...I weighed Ty and accoring to the Wii Fit, he is 10 and a half pounds...I'm not sure how accurate it is, but he had definitely put on some weight****

Ty is 1 month old today!!! I can't believe how fast this past month has gone! He is still a really good baby. He is sleeping usually about 4 or 5 hours stretches at night, but during the day he is starting to stay awake for a little longer at a time. Tucker and Trey are still loving being the big brothers and are really helpful! Tucker's favorite thing to help with is feeding Ty a bottle (which he doesn't get to do very often because I am still nursing) and patting Ty's back to burp him. Trey's favorite thing to help with is putting Ty's pacifier (which he calls "the Pass"). Ty is still eating a lot, but still spitting up...but he is definitely gaining weight so the doctor said it's not a big issue and he gets hiccups quite a bit. He also loves his paci...but doesn't "have" to have it all the time. His eyes still are what I call "the undefined baby color" some days they look blue, green, or brown..so we will see what color they turn eventually. His skin is still peeling, just a little bit mostly on his hands and feet. Then his hair is still the newborn greasy hair, but just recently after it dries from bath time, it is starting to poof out! I still can only see one dimple on his right cheek, so maybe he will only have one.

This face makes me laugh!

Working hard to get that head off the ground.

Ty (at 2 weeks)

Things were so hectic while my parents were here, I never got to post about Ty's 2 week check up. The doctor only had good things to say and he was already weighing 8lbs 5.5ozs!

These are just a bunch of random pictures from the visit....it was so good spending time with family...we all really do miss each other.

Picnic at the park

We really wanted to do something we don't usually go do while my parents were here, but getting 5 adults, 2 kids, and a newborn out of the house in a timely manner really isn't the easiest thing to accomplish, then Vinny was called to go to work, so we just decided to go to the boys favorite park. So we got some chicken and headed off to the park. It was a lot of fun and the weather was really nice! My mom made a funny comment...she said "why haven't I been to this park before?" and I replied, "because you always come in the summer and it is way too hot to go places like this in the summer."

At the neighborhood park

Vinny and my dad had to run a couple of errands one morning, so my mom, Josh, the boys, and I decided to walk to our neighborhood park and let the big boys play. Of course they had fun and put Josh my mom to work pushing them on the swings. I decided to try out the front pack with Ty. He seemed to like it, he slept the entire time in it. I thought it was pretty simple to put on and use..if you don't know some of those things are actually pretty complicated. We didn't get to stay too long because it started to sprinkle, but it was still fun!


Tucker is getting so big...he can do the fire pole all by himself!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was pretty amazing! It was the first we have spent with my parents since Tucker was a baby. It was so fun cooking in the kitchen with my mom all day long. Vinny fried a turkey and my mom roasted on and we had all the usual sides. We had a delicious dinner, then went on a walk, and had some pie! It was almost perfect...we really misses Jake, Jenn, and the kids...and the Arzola bunch (who we pretty much always celebrated the majority of our holidays with...for as long as I can remember). This was Ty's first major holiday, but he was completely oblivious to what was going on, but we put him in his little seat and he sat right by the table as we ate!

1st bath in the big tub

Ty's umbilical cord stump fell off while my parents were here, so he got his very first big boy bath! He really liked it..actually being in the nice warm water. He just sat there the entire time looking around and cried when I finally took him out of the water, but then was fine once I dried him off. Tucker and Trey were right there watching him take a bath and asked to take a bath with Ty next time he gets a bath.



He has such a chubby little face!!!! I love it..he reminds me of Tucker in this picture.

SNOW DAY!!!

Today we had SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so excited, this morning I went to try and do a little Christmas shopping and I came out of the store and it was really coming down...it even collected on my windshield!

It was a little disappointing because the further north I drove, the less and less snow there was. It fell a little bit at the house...but nothing like south of where we live. The big boys went out side and played for a little and did get to make a few little snow balls. Trey was outside for about 45 minutes and I had to drag him inside because it was really wet out and he was soaked and shivering. After that we made hot chocolate! It was so much fun and I LOVE the snow...too bad the sun is shinning right now and no more snow. (Oh and there are way more pictures of Trey than there are of Tucker, but he told me he didn't want to take pictures, he just wanted to play)

Bass Pro Shop

During my parents visit we went to the Bass Pro Shop......it is the boys favorite store so of course we had to go. It was Ty's first time there so we had to take some pictures!

Trey feeding Ty

On 11/22 Trey finally got his chance to feed Ty. It was cute because Tucker had to sit there the entire time "supervising" Trey feeding Ty. I'm glad the boys are such big helpers. (Tucker and Trey don't like wearing shirts...they are men..and men don't have to wear shirts...so if you ever notice the boys aren't wearing shirts in a lot of pictures that is why)

Trey being silly...he was excited!

Look at that face...he's concentrating :D

I love my sweet boys!!!
