L'il Road Warrior

While he has liked cars for a while tyler has now figured out how to run them along the roads. Until he pulls the roads apart and looks at me upset like it just magically exploded! It works out well as they have a bunch of these cars and tracks and more coming for the holidays.

The Alligator

One of our neighbors has an alligator in their yard. He's nice and friendly and doesn't bite even when Tyler smacks hi.. Repeatedly in the head. Everyday we walk to school or the small Park we have to stop to pet and feed him. He eats rocks, twigs and the occasional leaf if it's nearby but never the acorn looking pieces Savannah picks up.

Scrub a Dub Fun

In an effort to streamline our bedtime routine I’ve started bathing the kidlets in my tub together. It works great! They have plenty of room to play and of course it takes half the time since it’s just one bathtime instead of two.

Tyler ends up coming out first as he is still standing up – I give him a couple warnings but then out he comes. And for the rest of Savannah’s bathtime he runs out of the bathroom into the loft while we say “Bye Tyler!” then comes back for us to say “Hi Tyler!” to which he cracks up every time. He brings Savannah and I all sorts of presents from the loft too.. Toys, books, papers to shred.. Pretty much anything he finds out there.


Savannah has been making all sorts of “food” so we can have a picnic. She loves doing things pretend now - everything from pretend picnics to pretend getting hurt (??) and pretend swimming. Tonight she gave me soup, chicken nuggets and jello from her bath tub kitchen  lol 

In case I didn't share this earlier, here's an earlier video of Tyler watching the tub fill:  https://youtu.be/6tdsw3SMbbw

And some pictures of our new bathtime:

Tyler's First Haircut

We finally got around to taking Tyler for his first haircut – mainly to rid him of the mullet as we had to do with Savannah. At first he was doing great! He seemed a little confused but he was calm. I’m sure it helped he was in Marc’s lap.

He loved checking his friend (himself) out in the mirror!

Then all of a sudden he had had enough. Nothing happened but he was done. The stylist did her best to finish up and I have to give her kudos even though the back was a little uneven. He was totally freaking out!!

Going to Ella's House

Last week I told Savannah we were going to Ella's house on Saturday. She was excited but told me she was going to go by herself with Tyler.. I asked her how she'd get there and...

Walking with a Tractor

We officially have another Walker! He's actually been walking for a week (or is it two) but I'm just getting around to writing this. He is so much happier now, and we are too! He really is a Momma's boy and holds my finger while walking outside but inside he's everywhere! I of course love it! I have actually cooked dinners and been able to work while the two of them run the "race track" around the house.
