Sing Sing SIng

Ty loves to Sing- This is from FHE a couple of weeks ago. We took the video on Papa's phone so it's a bit hard to actually see, but turn the volume up. It's a T original for all to enjoy.....

It's only the beginning...

Every little boy's Dream

In the beginning there was a tree...

and some wood

Then came the Super 3 year old Tyler

and his Dad with some cool Power tools...

And this is what happens when little boys and Dad's put their Dreams together... when Mommy is out of town

8x8x6... still needs door, roof, and windows, but not bad for 1 days worth of work. I'm told there will be a walkway from the roof to the "look out tower" but for now T is in Heaven!

(I'm sure glad I have such handy boys around me)

Is that a Staple in your nose?

I sometimes wish I was a great journaler (I know the word is probably journalist, but I'm not talking about being a writer but one who actually writes in their journal...) I've thought about carrying around a recorder with me all day just so at the end of the day I can write down all the funny things that come out of my 3 year olds mouth. He uses words and phrases like "I generally don't" or " I suppose it would be" or "If I must" or "beep I'm not here right now. Leave a message." He talks like he's an adult and I really think he thinks he is... The other day we were having new carpet installed- woo woo- and he insisted that he needed to help the carpet guys. I kept having to call him back into the family room so that they could actually do their work. (The estimator guy told us he wouldn't charge us for his assistant (Ty) who helped him with the measuring tape and knowing which room was which. Anyways so back to the carpet guys. T was talking to one and I over heard him ask the guy if he had a staple in his nose? Apparently the guy had a nose ring and T thought it was a staple as the guy was using a staple gun on the carpet. It was hilarious. T kept telling him that he should be more careful with the staple gun that it was dangerous and if the guy wanted T could show him how to use it properly so that he wouldn't get anymore staples in his nose. Oh how I had wished I had that conversation on tape. It's definitely on my top 20 replays in Heaven!

Let it snow let it snow let it snow...

On the 19th of February we woke up to SNOW! Yeah!!! We usually get one skiff of snow a year here in good 'ol California and for the past two years I've missed it being in UT w/ feet of snow... But this year I was HERE! T woke up and was SO excited! We got all dressed up in our winter gear and by we- I mean T and Brian. I put on long johns and tried my best to cover my belly (apparently my snow pants don't fit over this baby- BFS) We went outside and played at the park and then took the doggies outside (Tank absolutely LOVES the snow) to play in the snow. T liked throwing snowballs, but amazingly enough was not so much a fan of being hit by the snow balls... huh weird.Of course our battery for the camera was dead and mine was charging for a shoot so I didn't get any pictures, but my Mom had sent us some "alaska make your own snow" stuff and so the other day in hopes of being a good mom helped T make some... So here's our fake snow. (FYI T insisted on taking my picture... not tooshabby for a 3 year old and for all of you wanting to see my belly this will have to due for now.) PS... yes T did his own hair and pretty much insists on it being spiked or in a mohawk everyday. He loves getting combs wet and spiking it at least 3 times a day and has even talked his Mom and Dad into spiking glue...
