17 Months and counting!

We were expecting April to be a lot less busy than the holiday season, but it seemed to be the opposite with travel and classes, and business stuff. There has been a lot going on around here. We decided to do another session of swimming lessons. It turns out the weather has been kind of chilly, so we have missed a few. Tyler just loves swimming though. He is blowing bubbles in the water now and kicking his feet. Every once in a while he will paddle his hands a little. Mommy is involved in MOPS at a local church and has been taking a Positive Parenting Class. She has continued to get together with the mom's group that she started and loved those girls. A few of them will be moving and that will be hard for her.
Daddy's business has been picking up a lot. He has three houses in escrow as of today:) He has been working really hard and we appreciate it. It's tough to have less time with him, but he does his best to spend time with us. Just this week he book five appointments with random sellers. That is a lot for one week.
Last week he was gone for a few days at conference with other people from our church and church conference called Catalyst. He continues to work hard making relationship with people at his office, at frisbee and at the church. I don't know how he can maintain so many relationships so well, but he does. It is his gift:)
Tyler loves to explore and try to say new words. Earlier today we read about 15 books in a row. He loves to read. He has enjoyed blowing bubbles and dancing to music lately. He has been climbing on and off the couches. He likes to brush (suck the water off his tooth brush) his teeth all by himself while standing on his stool and putting the brush in the running water. He likes drinking out of a cup and using a fork and spoon sometimes. He loves babies, so I bought him a baby doll.

Here is one of Daddy's listings.

Thanks Grandpa Knight for sending the b-ball tie for Tyler, I mean Dave:) Ty loves to put it on and walk around like his grandpa.


About a week ago we went to the outdoor mall (Paseo) near our apartment and discovered a neat fountain. We were not dressed to play in the water, but we did it anyways. Ty got soaked and loved it. He was like a street performer. None of the other parents would let their kids get wet, so Ty was the only one and everyone was watching him. It was funny!



We got this little tent for when we go to the beach this summer, but Tyler has enjoyed it as his little fort in the meantime.

Daddy got to take Ty to swimming lessons this last week. They both enjoyed it. Mommy enjoyed watching.

A Great Vacation

I climbed into the mini-wagon and Uncle Brad took me for a spin around the house.
