Too long...

It's amazing how fast time flies now! And that means my poor little baby blog is getting neglected. Here are a few quick updates. Ty is sleeping through the night.....yay!!! We are getting between 7.5 to 9 hours of sleep a night. I forgot how wonderful sleep was! But, I will say every sleepless night was worth having this little guy. He has blessed Jeff and I so much!

Ty's first "arts and crafts" project. It's a footprint ornament for the Christmas tree.

Ty had a nice visit from his Nana (Jeff's mom) a couple of weeks ago. It had been a while, so I know he enjoyed getting to spend some time with her. As you can see he was "kicking it out" and showing off on his playmat for her!

We also celebrated our first Turkey Day with Ty. We had an amazing day at Nona and Poppy's house (Beth's parents). The Hubbard clan joined this year and it was truly a day of thankfulness. We are so blessed this year to have Ty and amazing family and friends who love up and support us with unconditional love. I love how each holiday has a whole new meaning now! I won't bore you all with tons of pictures from the day.....even though I really want to!

I finally gave in and got Ty a bumpo seat, and he seems to really love it. I know he's enjoying having a new activity to do. He is so active, we have to get creative to keep me occupied. So, needless to say, Jeff and I spend a ton of time on the floor playing with Ty....and of course, we love every second of it!

And, Ty is spending lots of time on his tummy getting ready for crawling...gosh help us when this kiddo takes off. He will be into everything!

On the tooth front, we have 2 full teeth on the bottom now. At this rate, we will have a mouth full before his first birthday. It's crazy!

So, I went a little overboard buying clothes for Ty's first Christmas, so he will be wearing nothing but Christmas clothes from here until Santa comes. I just love them, and after all, I will only get to dress him for such a short while. I know he will die about this when he gets older!

I promise to post tons more soon. I'm trying to do this blog not only for friends and family but as a scrapbook of sorts for Ty. We just love this little guy so much, and we love that he is getting such a fun personality now. Having Ty is truly the best gift Jeff and I could have ever gotten. We are so lucky that we get to shape a life, and we are trying to make sure we don't take a second of that forgranted. Every time we're rocking him to sleep and thinking about the 800 other things that we both need to be doing we try to stop and remind ourselves that he's only this little once. And of course, that puts it all in perspective...there's nothing either of us would rather be doing than spending every second with Ty. We love you more than you could ever possibly know son. Thank you for enriching our lives and teaching us to slow down and enjoy it!
