Becoming a "big boy".....

This weekend Tyler got to have a sleepover at Gramma Borchers house, while Mommy froze her tail off watching Daddy race. :) He seemed to have a lot of fun here, and who wouldn't with going to the park, getting a tattoo (wash off kind obviously) and staying up late... he had a blast! Allen and I got to enjoy a nice night to ourselves including SLEEPING IN! Ahhhh.... And then Sunday it was back to reality.


I must say Tyler is really just blooming before our eyes. I finally had to buy him new jeans and tennis shoes because he has just shot right up in height and all a sudden his feet grew like a size and a half?!?!?! He has been talking so much (still don't understand most of it) but is saying more and more words all the time. He now says "at" for hat, "cuck" for truck and instead of Dada can now say "daadee" (so adorable!).

Tyler is still a big helper with putting coats and shoes away, replacing caps/lids and even in the bathroom. He loves to come in the bathroom, close the lid and says "all done" and the will flush the toilet. I am very pleased with the interest he shows in this, and if he keeps it up, we may just be trying potty training this fall!!! (I know, don't count my chickens) AND after dropping the mattress to lowest level, we found out real quick that he can still get out. THANKFULLY, with a little coaching, Tyler has been staying in his bed for naps and bedtime!! YAY!

I am looking forward to a nice long BEAUTIFUL holiday weekend we have ahead of us! I'm sure we will be outside LOTS!
