1/21/09 & 1/23/09

Well I gotta thank my mom for the pictures below. From the time Tyler was born, I've been a little trigger happy with the camera. Lately I've calmed down a bit, but I'm glad my mother is still going strong and gets these great pictures for his scrapbook that she's making.

Thanks Mom!!

Tyler's Great Grandma Christensen knitted him some cute outfits and I asked my mother to take a picture of him in her little white rocking chair. She went above the call of duty and took some of my favorite pictures of him below. Accidentally she left her camera on the wrong setting, so they didn't come out the clearest, but I couldn't resist posting them. We plan on redoing them sometime soon.

Introducing Solids

Last week, we introduced Tyler to some baby food. He made some weird faces and was mostly interested in the spoon.

Boys will be Boys

Hey Bud...Do ya wanna wrestle?
1-2-3 PIN!

Huh? Did someone say lunch?

We tried to get 1 year old Aiden in this picture, but he wasn't having it.

One day soon these guys are going to be crawling.

Kiss my...what?

5 Months Old!

Tyler turned 5 months old last week. As usual, we celebrated with a cake and candles. One day he'll be able to have his cake and eat it too.

New Year's Day - Get your gun!

We spent the day at Grandma & Grandpa Christensen; eating and shooting clay pigeons. As a tradition, we had Oliebollen. Yum! Thanks for all the hard work in the kitchen Grandma, the food was Great!

Olivia says "Hi!" then points and laughs becase Tyler is still wearing a bib..."What a baby."

Ready for action..."FIIIIRE!!!

12/26 - Fun in the SNOW! Brrrr

It was Jim's birthday... so we dropped of the little buckeroo and went shopping & had dinner at Boston Pizza.

Time to move the snow. Grandpa Dykes made a phone call to his work and in minutes he had his culdesac and neighbors driveways cleared out.

Look we found an Eskimo...

Say Cheese!If you're going outside boy...wear your hat!

Let the feast begin!!!

Christmas Day at Grandma Flaherty!

Next year I'm sure he won't be crying when it's time to open gifts.

He isn't really digging the bow on the head.

Neither is his cousin Kael.

Tyler and his cousin...just chill'n.
Tyler opens his first stocking.

Like everything he touches, he's got to take a taste.

Here he is tasting his new bib.

The boys are having a serious discussion here! Jim WINS...Finally after 3 years of going out early!
