Human Burritos

Daddy and Ty are always having fun together and creating new games to play.  I call this one "Human Burritos".  I had a lot of fun watching and documenting their game unfold...or rather get folded - tee hee.  I was able to get clearer pictures when Jamie was rolling up Ty because he would go slower, but when Ty rolled up Daddy he wasn't so cooperative, so the pictures may be a little fuzzy, but if anything true to life.

Group Swimming: Take 2

The first group swimming class turned out to be a little too big, so we switched for the rest of his lessons to a smaller class with the same teacher. Ty missed his friend Ella, but he still had a blast!


Group Swimming: Take 1

We put him in his first group swimming class this winter with his friend Ella and Ty just loved it!  Ty loved his teacher Carolina and being with his friend Ella.  Out of all the kids he was the most adventurous or fearless.  He just went for it!  His favorite is to jump into the water to his teacher.  Now he is taking a once a week private lesson with Teacher Tyler (pics coming soon).  Ty loves his new teach and he is progressing rapidly with the one-on-one instruction!  We are excited to test out his new skills this summer up at Nana and Papa's cabin!

Scuba Steve

After we got back from our Caribbean cruise over Spring Break (to celebrate our 10 year anniversary this September), Jamie and I left our snorkel gear out in the living room and Ty discovered it and had fun trying it on.  I couldn't help but think of that movie "Big Daddy" where they have that character Scuba Steve...  Ty is our Snorkel Ty.  Not as catchy of a name as Scuba Steve, but definitely way cuter!

GREEN is my favorite color!

I hope you are reading the title like you are singing that Aerosmith song, "Pink!"  PINK IS MY FAVORITE COLOR!  Or in this case, Ty's favorite color is GREEN!  When asked why?  Ty replied, "Because Green means GO!"  Can I just say that is just so appropriate for him.  He is a kid that is constantly on the go in every way.  Back to green...everything is green.  At swimming lessons he wants the green noodle, at meals he wants the green dishes and when he colors he colors all in green as you can see below.  The list goes on to include: green jellybeans, broccoli, crayons, gum.  If it's green Ty will love it.

Cleaning Up His Toys

After being asked to put his toys away one night, Ty got creatively sneaky and used his onesie pajamas as his toy chest.  We didn't find out until we heard him walking around...every time he walked it would clank.  That is when he unzipped his pajamas to reveal his toys.  There were so many, it was hilarious!  The best part was that he pulled out his little toy hammer first.  It was priceless!
