311 Days of Parenthood

With January 29th being behind us, Nick and I have officially been parents for 10 months. Seems like time has flown by way too fast and in a short while Mommy's kisses and Daddy's hugs will be replaced by "No, no Tyson...Put that down...Stop pulling Kasper's tail". Nevertheless, we have enjoyed this ride thusfar. Interesting enough, I've had discussions with friends who have said they don't know what they did before they had kids. I, for one, distinctly remember what we did before Tyson came into this world. Sleeping in on Saturdays, midnight runs for ice cream, not tripping over toys...ahhh...the good life. Just kidding, you all know we love our Tysie-pooh!

Its been really fun to see him grow into new phases. Even the little things, like eating new foods, is a total adventure; alot of which I contribute to him having FOUR teeth. I'm proud to say that so far, he takes after his momma when it comes to appetite. He loves cantelope, yogurt and even white beans....an occasional banana peel finds its way into the diet as well.





He can wave bye-bye and clap estatically. And of course, his smile can light up a room. He hasn't had a pacifier in months and we're well on our way with the sippy cup. And praise the Lord we have 56 Days until he is on WHOLE MIIIIIIILK!!!! Yes, I was just singing that...lol!



We've made a conscious effort to soak it all in, because in a blink of an eye, he'll be going to prom. Thanks again for tuning in and sharing in our journey. We'll keep you posted.
