Sleeping 101

I was fortunate to be given an infant who slept extremely well. Waking up only once until 7 weeks and then sleeping through the night. As a toddler however, things have drastically changed. I first blamed it on his ear infection, then his teeth, and now......??? Naps continued to be easy until he moved into the toddler room at cobber kids. Tyden finally was able to communicate with me that he wanted to sleep on the floor. Apparently he doesn't like the crib anymore. He layed on the floor, played with his feet, talked, and then fell asleep. He didn't even try to get up and shoot baskets!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever works!!

What does a Lion say? ROOOOOAR

I am a lion for halloween. I just learned to LOVE my costume and I want to put it on all the time!!! I especially like the "hat." I know what a lion says. I put my scary hands out and say ROOOOAR! Mommy doesn't have afternoon practice on halloween so she is taking me to a few of the relatives houses to trick-or-treat and then we are going to a halloween party at my auntie's house. Here are some pictures of me. Mommy took them in case I decide to be stubborn and not put my costume on for halloween.

Corn Feed

The Corn Feed at Concordia was in Aug. but I am late at posting any pictures since school has started. Tyden loves corn on the cob. I actually think gnawing on the cob feels really good on those gums (that are now filled with teeth!!). How can Concordia NOT use one of these pictures for the corn feed brochure next year???? :)

Austin is 1

Happy Birthday to Austin! He turned one today. We celebrated by going to Chuck-E-Cheese for games and pizza! Boy did Tyden have fun. He loved the animals on the stage and the Gorilla "lilla" as Tyden called it and the rides!

Company

My friend Tracy and her daughter Elizabeth came to visit this week. It was so fun to have company. We went for stroller rides, the park, part of a baseball game and lots of playing! Thanks Tracy for visiting!

Tyden and Austin

Here are the boys. Tyden is my little tornado who goes from room to room and destroys anything he can get his hands on. However, with our 3rd episode of croup, he has slowed down a TINY bit. Here is the cutest picture of his feet during nap...I just think they are so cute!! Here he is with his glove (or maybe Austin's glove...I am not sure) throwing the ball in the glove and taking it out and throwing it in and taking it out! I don't know where he learned it....maybe the zillion baseball games we have been to this summer or the countless times he has been in Bryant's dugout??? Oh- and Tyden won't go anywhere without his Gopher hat from Papa Bucky.
Here is one of my favorite pictures of my nephew Austin sucking his feet. He does it all the time and it is so funny!!!! He licks all his toes and gets them all slobbery! He is also Papa's buddy when food is around! SORRY MY PICTURES WON'T UPLOAD....I'LL TRY AGAIN LATER

For you Mom!

My mom is in Norway right now and I thought I better update some pictures! Mom- here is Tyden after bath (one of your favorite times). The pics aren't uploading so I will try again another night.
