Seven

Yup, I am the mother to a SEVEN YEAR OLD!!! How did that happen? Ty had his birthday over the Christmas holidays ..... Tyler is sensitive and loving, he loves any and every sport (and all of the rules that go along with them). He is growing up and everyday coming home from school I see new things that I didn't teach him (good and bad). He tries really hard to be a good friend to all of his classmates and is on a steep leaning curve socially being immersed in the lives of his classmates. He often comes home from school totally exhausted and I feel like it is more emotionally draining than physically. Tyler has been going to gymnastics and is improving rapidly its fun to see. We love you so much Tyler and are proud of you!!






Oh, and you may have noticed that he LOVES the Canucks .... if it ain't the Canucks might as well be naked ;)

Three

Today my baby is three. I think that means that I no longer have a baby. It's been fun watching him learn and grow. He's in the 95-100% for 3 year old boys .... I think he's going to end up the tallest of our boys. He thinks his middle name is Batman (and doesn't like to be corrected). He is intense and doesn't do anything half heartedly. He loves to laugh and make others laugh. He loves hockey. He talks a lot and to me it's very clear (but apparently I'm wrong and he is kinda difficult to understand ;) ). We love you Sawyer and are so glad that God chose for you to be in our family!!

Sawyer and the little guy that I take care of Monday - Friday 8am-5pm.
I think this is his fierce goalie face.
He put on all this equipment completely by himself and was very proud!

We had Visitors!

We had an amazing, fun and busy summer. As I have chances I'll try to post pictures.

One of our favorite things was having Tyler and Meghan come visit for a week. We had a blast!

The day they came my parents still had our boys at "Papa and Nana Camp" so we got to hang out just adults. We met Cory after his work at Red Fish Blue Fish. Mmmmmmm, yum.

We also got to walk around downtown.. This is Fan Tan Alley.

After dinner we went for a walk on the breakwater.

We checked out Cory's new office.

One day we went to Botanical Beach. We had never been there before and it was just stunning!

Thanks for visiting us Ty and Meg. We are so blessed to have you in our lives!!!
