Slacker

I know, I'm horrible. This is the only written record of my firstborn's growth and development, and my OWN parental growth and development, and I've not been a very diligent blogger. I have, however, been thoroughly enjoying my son and my husband and the lovely weather we've had these past couple of weeks.

Two weekends ago, Mike went on a guys' ski trip (with his brothers, brother-in-law, cousins and some friends). They left on Friday evening and came back on Monday night. So, it was just me and Ty all weekend. While we missed Mike, it was sort of fun being just me and Tyler.


We went to a park on Saturday, then ran some errands, and on Sunday evening we met my sister-in-law for pizza. Pretty low-key, but I enjoyed all of it. I always feel that the times I'm with Tyler are times I need to make up for him being in daycare all week. Every evening we all just play and have dinner, then play some more until Tyler goes to bed. Then it's time for Mike and I to be together. Not that it always happens like that, but usually it does. Anyway, that weekend I was just reveling in me and Tyler time! Mostly I love to just watch him. He's very independent when he plays, but he learns so well by watching what other people do and imitating them.



Tyler has started dancing, too! He's so cute, we just don't know if he has my dancing genes or Mike's :) He sort of bends and straightens his knees and just bobs up and down, so we have yet to determine his dancing style.




When Mike came home from his ski trip, Tyler had learned how to give kisses! It was a fun way to greet his Daddy:
