Jammies

The other day Tyler said that he wanted some pajamas with feet like Jason has. I actually had a couple of pair in his closet, but didn't think that he would like them. Tyler said that he was going to look in his room to see if he had any, well of course he found them and watned to put them on. He absolutly loves them and does not want to take them off in the mornings. He says that they are "so warm and soft and keep his feet warm."








Tyler got into my makeup tonight when I was giving Jason a bath. He did a pretty darn good job with the mascara - I thought that Jimmy helped him, but he had no idea that his son was playing dress up :-) He also made his hair "beautiful" as he says it.

Oh Mommy!

Sometimes Tyler says the funniest things. Here are a few of his most recent things that made us laugh:

  1. I spilt water in the family room the other day and Tyler said, "Oh, Mommy! That's okay. I clean it up." He went upstairs got a towel and cleaned it up!!
  2. Tyler was downstairs in the office with Jimmy and said to Jimmy, "I get on phone, you be quiet!" Do you think he has heard that one a few times!!

Kids are so much fun, especially when you don't ever know what is going to come out of their mouths!

Treehouse Museum

We frequently visit the children's Tree house Museum in Ogden, and I got a few pictures this week. Santa came to story time, but Tyler did not want anything to do with him. He watched from a distance and told me what he wanted for Christmas!

Here are a few pictures of the boys playing with a giant chess game. Tyler had fun "burying" Jason. This is a game that we play quite often with pillows and anything else Tyler can find to pile around Jason.






If you are wondering if Tyler is wearing the same shirt in almost every picture, you are right! This is his favorite "long sleeved shirt" and he wants to wear it all the time. I am not sure why he likes this one so much, but it is a definite favorite and we are going to be in trouble when it is too small.

Gingerbread fun

Tyler decorated a gingerbread house this weekend and had a great time! He wasn't quite sure why we were doing it and kept asking, but he thought it was fun.

Tyler the Tool man

We decided that since Tyler is so handy and loves to fix things that we would put him to work so he can start earning his keep around our house! His first assignment was to fix a leaking shower. He put on his hard had and went right to work, with every tool that he could find! He claims that the shower is fixed :-) If we are going to put the poor kid to work, we figured that we better get him a car to drive around in, so we converted a couple of card board boxes into his very own car!!

Tyler just loves his car and was so excited when we were making it. It is equiped with a door, stearing wheel, and of course a blinker (by special request)! Tyler was having so much fun playing with it. Once Jason woke up, Tyler decided that Jason needed his own car, so we made a little car that would go right behind Tyler's. Jason thought it was great, but his stearing wheel and blinker did not last long because he thought it was more fun to eat them! All in all, this was a GREAT way to spend a cold, winter afternoon! I never knew that a box could be such a great play pin!











Just in case you wanted to see Tyler's tonsils!

Just like Daddy

Tyler does not miss a thing! Today he wanted to put on one of Jimmy's ties and he said that he had to go to a meeting at church. He got the car keys and headed to his pretend car. Once he got to church, he said that we needed to sing songs and eat food. He is so much fun - you just never know what he is going to think of next! Here is a picture of the meeting:

On the move...

Jason is crawling all over the place now. He is getting better, but is still pretty funny to watch because he only uses one leg. He also loves to clap. He will crawl over to get his binky and then sit up and start clapping. It is so cute! Here is a little video of him crawling around the dining room.


Go Gators!

We got snow again this weekend, and of course had to go outside to build a snowman. This is Tyler's new favorite thing to do in the snow. We put Jason in the cute Gator outfit that Uncle Dave and Aunt Pam got for him! It fits perfect and works great for a little snow suit.

Jason was all smiles while we were outside playing. He even participated in a family snow ball fight. He did great until Mom pounded him in the face with a snowball :-( Oops! Jimmy was holding him and a snowball bounced off Jimmy's shoulder and hit Jason right in the kisser! He was NOT happy to say the least.
