Tyler is 10 months!

Well, I guess now he's almost 11 months...better late than never, right! He is so much fun right now! He's in to everything...finally crawling on all 4's (most of the time)...and so close to walking! His record right now is 16 steps! Most of the time he takes about 5 steps and then plops on his buns. He has the brightest smile and lights up when Paige, Jerm or me comes into a room. It's so cute and I love how much he loves us! He brings so much joy to our lives and I can't believe he's growing up so quick!

He didn't sit still for long!



Little Hikers

The weekend before my parents came we hiked Torrey Pines. We drove up to the top of the hill and took one of the trails. Paige did great! We aren't sure but we think it was at least a 2 mile hike and Paige did the whole thing!
Walking up a hill...Jeromy's neck doesn't normally stick out like that!
Little Cutie Pie


I didn't capture the moment as I'd hoped but this was so sweet! Paige got her face super close to Tyler's, touched his cheek and they started talking and laughing with each other. Precious!




Tyler fell asleep on Jerm's back. Poor thing! We did this when Paige was about the same age and the same thing happened!
Ha!

Pizza Playdate

Danielle had a group of us over last week for a pizza playdate. So much fun! Within minutes of us walking in the door, Paige and Clare connected and went straight into girly girl land. Sara and I went out to check on them and found them like this! Relaxing in beach chairs, legs crossed, purse, stroller and baby. They know the Mom gear pretty well! Paige's new thing is to pretend she's the Mom so I'm pretty sure this is what they were doing.
As if that wasn't entertaining enough, Corbin and Carson were running around like monkey's and the girls were looking at them like "what are you doing?". It's funny to see the kids who have played together for so long start to go into boy/girl roles.
Danielle managed to fit all 10 kiddos around her dining room table! The Donnelley's, Stallings', Reardon's, McCallion's, and Szekeres' were all there.
Maddie is the sweetest little girl! She loves Tyler and is so precious with him! She loves to hug and kiss him and now that he's a little older, she's started to play with him. Here she is trying to show him some love and say hello.

She was sitting on this chair and Tyler was standing up holding on to the chair. She started to try and pull him up next to her so I helped out a bit and sat him next to her. Well, the sitting part for Tyler didn't last long as you can see but she managed to get a little snuggle in before he was off to the next thing. So stinkin sweet!!

Club M

While my parents were visiting we took advantage of the free babysitting and went out! Nicole planned a night out and it happened to be while my parents were visiting so it worked out great. We went to Club M at The Grand hotel. So, so fun! We danced until 1:30am. Jeromy was one of 2 guys that came and was quite the trooper to hang with all us chicks for such a long time. This is a picture before the real fun started!!

Happy Birthday Addison!

We went to Pump It Up for the first time a few weekends ago for Addison's 6th birthday.

Weeee!!!!
Tyler had fun too! We had a ball we were rolling back and forth and he would go crawl after it. Paige decided to join the fun and rolled the ball to him too. I know this isn't the best picture but I thought it was sweet that Paige wanted to play with him ;)
Group picture! You might notice Tyler in the bottom using the girl next to him to pull up to standing!! I realized what was going on right after I took the picture. Poor little girl! She was so sweet and just had this face like...is anyone going to help me?

Loving the January beach days

Before I started to update my blog tonight, I was catching up on friends blogs. A lot of them live in Texas and have been posting pictures of their kids in snowsuits making snowmen and I'm uploading pictures of my kids in swimsuits at the beach! Anyway, this was last weekend while my parents were visiting.

I love the beach!
Paige is having a blast at the beach this year! It's fun to see how her creative mind works and what she does to have fun.
She stood up one of her buckets and started to sing Taylor Swift...hilarious!
Then she stacked 2 buckets and jumped off them about 100 times. I love this picture!
Tyler had fun too! He ate a little sand but considering EVERYTHING goes in his mouth right now, he didn't eat nearly as much as I thought he would! He's so close to walking. His record right now is 16 steps...
