Happy birthday sweet boy!

Okay, I know this is long overdue and I am so sorry about that. We have had a lot going on and I just couldn't find the time. I mean to post this months ago but better late than never...right? So, Tyson turned one (back in August) and I still cannot beleive how fast it went by. I just remember so clearly when we found out when we were pregnant with him (Ansley was 5 months old and I was already 7 weeks along...perhaps one reason I remember it so clearly...just sayin') and now he is already one! It just doesn't seem real at all. I will say that having 2 babies 13 months apart was not near as hard as I thought it would be in my head. Don't get me wrong...I had my days but Ty was such as easy baby and Ansley was such a good little girl that it went pretty well. Ty came home a tiny little thing with tiny tiny legs and now he is such a big boy. He was always such a good baby and he made things so easy for me. It's like he knew that I also had to take care of Ansley or something (although that probably was more God but I like to think that Ty try to make it easier on his Mama). Anyway, he was such a good sleeper and did things so much sooner than Ansley did that I was a little taken aback. I guess I was just expecting things to go about that same rate and that was not the case. It actually made things a little easier because he was getting around sooner than she did. He held his bottle sooner (well...come to think of it...Ansley never held her bottle being the princess that she was) and I literally had to do very little for him. Now he is walking around and saying words...it is really so crazy. He was such a sweet baby and now he's such a sweet little guy. His sissy has really grown to love him as well. She wasn't sure what to think of him when we first brought him home but most times now...they chase eachother and play together so it's really nice. I just wanted to put up some pics and remember him as a little baby because there is nothing little about him now :)
