Hula Hoop

I should have blogged this last month...but I just haven't had time to actually sit and CROP anything. THIS IS WORTH IT THOUGH! AS you can see from the picture above Tyson and Daddy like to play Wii Fit together on occassion. I have learned when i do WiiFit during the day (which I should really do MORE often) I have to give Tyson a controller of his own (not plugged in of course) AND he has to have his own Wii board or he will try to push me off of the real one. So I took the kneeling bad from the bathtub to create a Wii balance board just for Tyson. Scott made me PROMISE to keep him out of the video...so I had to do some cropping before I could post this...but I have LAUGHED until I cried today watching the whole video. Below you will see Tyson doing the hula hoop activity with Daddy. As you can see Tyson is VERY impressed with Daddy's abilities. (Scott said if I put him on here...he would video me and put in on U-Tube...NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THAT!!!)

make me smile

Baby Mike is all smiles now...but i am having trouble gettting it on camera...so Tyson tries to help make him smile. Baby Mike is going to be tough.

tippin' the scale

Baby Mike had his 2 month check-up last Thursday. This resulted in his first round of vaccines...I think he said a couple of baby cuss words...but it is understandable when they do all that and you don't even get a sucker.

He is 21 inches long and weighs 11 pounds 1 oz. Although Tyson was quite a bit bigger than him at birth...Baby Mike passed him up. Tyson was 10lbs 4ozs at 2 months. Tyson had to go back on Friday for his first flu shot.

A Typical Morning Lately

Monday morning at 5:15 a.m. Yes...that is almost a smile on Scott's face. He loves his little guys!
This is from another morning a few weeks ago...when I got to see what it looks like from the outside...he is looking for scott...who is actually in the shower.

"Daddy!!! hurry up Shawn the Sheep is on Disney Playhouse"

I made him sit on the rug and wait patiently....HA,,,i just laughed out loud when i typed that word...ha ha ha

I am posting this between 6:15 and 6:30 a.m. HOPEFULLY...why do I say this...because Tyson could be up ANY second. He used to sleep until 8ish. Since we have brought Baby Mike home...Tyson has decided that he needs to wake up anywhere between 5:30 and 6:30...6:30 is DOable...I was trying to wake up at 6am to get in the shower before Scott wakes up. That was my PLAN...well that has turned into me waking up at 5am on most days to try and "beat the boys." Sometimes I will be in the shower and I will see little tiny hands on the shower door "Momma Momma!" That is a typical 5:30 morning....if this doesn't happen I am almost certain to hear Disney Playhouse on the tv when I get out of the shower because Scott interecepted Tyson before he broke into my showertime. This means Tyson will "lay" in bed with Daddy and watch cartoons (because Daddy LOVE watching OSO!) until I bring a coffee for Daddy and a strawberry milk for Tyson. And let me stress that I use the term "lay" LOOSELY!!!

Scott was in Boston this weekend and he returned LATE Sunday night...or early Monday morning depending on how you look at it...Baby Mike woke up at 4:30 for his bottle (oh yea...the INFANT goes a full SEVEN hours between his nighttime and morning bottle...SWEET!) until you have a morning like Monday...back to 4:30 a.m. Baby Mike wakes up at 4:30 am for his bottle I finish all of that process up...when we hear the "SCRRRRREEEEAAACCCHH" of Tyson door through the monitor...and Scott's eyes pop open and he says "SERIOUSLY! are you kidding me???" "SLAM" (that is Tyson hitting the first pocket door...."pat pat pat" (that's his feet across the living room floor) I AM NOW TYPING THIS AS IT HAPPENS...because his OF COURSE AWAKE....because it is 6:36...AAAWWWW....then you hear "SLAM" (that is Tyson hitting the 2nd pocket door" then you hear "HEY!!!!" at the TOP of his Baby lungs he screams as he runs into the bedroom. Sweet Jesus oh how I love coffee!!!! Now am listening to "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" and the silence I have enjoyed since 5:00 a.m. is NOW OVER! but I am refreshed and ready for a NEW DAY!!

i am holding tyson now and typing with one hand...it is gonna be a good day

Does this hat make my butt look big???

"Does this hat make my butt look big?"

"SERIOUSLY!!! what is wrong with you Momma??? You know what Daddy thinks about baby hats!"

"This is how you work it!"

"Tyson should NEVER dress me!"

"COULD I BE ANY CUTER??!!??"
