Welcome Tyler!
Weighing In at 7 lbs 6 ounces
"Where am I?"
Clean and Warm
I look so tired in this picture. I would like to say that is was because I just delivered a baby, but I don't think having an epidural and pushing twice qualifies as "hard labor"! But it was 4:00 am!
Big brother seeing Ty-man for the first time. Nice to see he was welcomed with kisses instead of pinches! (unfortunately, the newness has worn off and Tyler is sometimes the victim of Michael's temper tantrums!)
My boys!
Michael looked HUGE compared to Tyler. It was as if he grew a ton over night!
Maria (our trusted babysitter) and Tyler
Going Home
(So if Tyler is in the car seat, why do I still look pregnant?)
A Proud Big Brother!
A Proud Daddy!
Grammy arrived the day we went home from the hospital. Thank goodness we were not on our own for too long!
I love this picture! Greg was taking a picture of me and Tyler and Michael popped up in the back, with a binky in his mouth!!! The identity crisis begins!! Michael still (5 months later) likes to play like he is Tyler. He likes me to wrap him up, pretend to feed and burp him! We also have to call him Tyler!
Proud Mama and her Baby!!
Easter Eggs and "OUCH", What was that, a contraction?
Making Room for Baby Brother
After we finished redoing Michael's room, it was time to set up a new nursery. Thanks to my Mom and Sydnee who came to do all of the labor, I think Tyler's room came together very nicely. I chose a surfer theme, in hope that this new baby would be laid back and take things as they came. (very prophetic I must say!)

Christmas in Roswell...and a few other pictures
Once we got back to West Lafayette, we were greeted with more snow. It was freezing, but I wanted Michael to have a chance and get out and play in it. It was 15 degrees, so we really had to bundle him up! They only stayed out for about 5 minutes and were welcomed back in to some hot chocolate! Yummy!
Watching Daddy make a snow angel.
Michael wasn't interested in trying it!
Giving me a thumbs up!
Well you made it through this long post. I hope you enjoyed the pictures!

Getting Ready for Christmas
"Mom keeps telling me not to touch the tree, but it is so hard to resist!"
Thankgiving in Bama!
At Lamberts - check out the size of the rolls!

Ellee and Michael
In deep thought - perhaps he will be able to solve the healthcare problem?
Another cute picture!
The best part of the whole trip was being able to spend time together. Michael loves his cousins! It was so fun to watch him jump in and wrestle with the boys! He already knew Parker and Ellee very well and loves to visit and play with them. But this was the first time he had seen Kit and Liberty's kids since he was 9 months old. Greg and I laugh that Michael and Gunner had a love/hate relationship! They were so intrigued by eachother, but were quick to squeal if either of them did something they didn't like. But, they proved to be great buddies and Michael is still talking about Gunner! :)
Wrestling with the boys!

(Parker was great with the little boys!)
All and all, we had a great time together as a family. We have so much to be grateful for! The Lord has blessed our family beyond what we deserve. I am so grateful for this Holiday Season when the world stops to remember the birth and life of our Savior. May we all strive to carry that spirit in our hearts all year long.
