Busy, Busy

My niece Megan and my great-nephew Brayden stayed with us until last Wednesday. Brayden is crawling everywhere and into everything so he and Tyler played well together. Tyler is really going to be a wonderful big brother. He would get Brayden's bottle for him when he would drop it. He would get Brayden toys and show him how to play with them. Ty did need to be on mommy's lap every time Brayden was there so there was a little bit of jealous feelings. We enjoyed the park, the pool, walks, and just playing in the play room. Tyler is amazing at learning his letters. Usually after breakfast Tyler pulls mommy on the floor and we work on our letters on the fridge. He can show you letters, A, B,X, Y, O, T and is learning more each day. He LOVES his books and we usually read a little bit through out playing every day. He runs to his books yelling BOUT, BOUT and picks out a favorite. He loves three particular books because they all have a mouse in it. Our books are getting worn fast, but I love it. It just means we put them to good use. He loves the I Spy game, so we play that often. He still loves his bubbles but has upgraded to a bigger blue bubble stick (you will see in pictures that will be added soon). He actually did swim for the first time last week at the pool. Instead of just going under water he went from daddy to the steps and back again. We are going to be looking into swim lessons. He will tell you on a regular basis "my mess" meaning I'm a mess. He is full energy but a ton of fun and a lot of laughs. He is just amazing.
