Sometimes I wonder why we buy toys...

This weekend, after we were done coloring Easter eggs, Ty asked for a snack. When I gave him an orange, I had no idea that the peel would entertain him for 45 minutes as he turned the pieces into boats and islands and used a plastic cutting board and a piece of construction paper as the beach and the ocean.

Two holidays in one week

Apology on a weekend morning

This weekend, Ty got up very early both mornings. Luckily, when I went up to get him on Saturday morning, he wanted to "sleep with daddy." Unfortunately, that meant laying his head on our pillows for 5 minutes and then getting up to go play. At least he softened the blow with the kind words that he said as he walked away down the hallway..."Sorry guys."

A 10-word sentence

Yesterday at church, Ty decided to say his first 10-word sentence. So, what did he say? Maybe a nice prayer? Or an expression of love for his parents? No. He said, "I want to go to Target after church is over." Guess we've made that more of a routine than I had thought...

Fun in the sun

Ty has had a wonderful month, getting to spend a week on Sand Key with his Granny and Grandpa while I worked in Florida and then while Jeff and I travelled to West Palm Beach for my friend Melanie's wedding. He got to go to an aquarium, a bird sanctuary, swim in the Gulf and the pool and have a ton of fun. He also got to see his friend Reilly whom he hasn't seen since they were 1-yr. old. They had a great time talking to each other and playing.
