Over the weekend, Tyler has discovered the letter “b”.  It is so cute, he started off on Saturday quietly going “buh-buh-buh-buh” under his breath, then by later in the day he was going “ba-ba-ba-buh-ba-buh-buh”.  It is so cute to listen to him playing with this new sound.  He’s been doing lots of coos and vowel… Continue reading B-B-B-Baby

Tyler has discovered a new playmate.  It’s that baby in the mirror!  But he doesn’t have any new tricks, everything Tyler does, he does too.  Still, he’s a handsome fella’… 2694 2700

Yay, another tooth!  The other front bottom tooth has come in.  It is hard to get a good look at them, though, because every time I try to peek in there, he sticks his tongue out and over the teeth.  I’d love to get a picture of them, I’ll just have to keep the camera… Continue reading Another Tooth!
