Memorial Day Weekend Fun!?!?!

To begin our 3 day weekend, Tyler vomits all over mommy Friday night during dinner. We take yet another trip to the doctor on Saturday to find out that the poor guy has another ear infection! GRR! When will this madness stop? He's back on antibiotics (the one that makes his poopy red, lol) for 10 days and then has a follow up appointment.

$20.00 for doctors appointment
$10.00 for antibiotics

PRICELESS for a baby who is so precious and such a good sport that he still smiles and plays despite his sore ear.

On Saturday, we didn't do much. Some laundry, some light shopping, some housework. LOL

On Sunday, we went to Chuck E Cheese for our friend's son's 3rd Birthday party. I must say the pizza was pretty bad, but the chicken wings ... I actually liked.

On Monday, in the morning daddy went golfing and Tyler was subject to another day of shopping with mommy. Not that he should complain, he is still the one who always gets the most things. Shirts for $3 ... who could resist? If the afternoon, we all went up to the park to visit Aunty Wendy and our friends. Tyler had fun playing and actually fell asleep. We didn't get to stay too long.

On Tuesday ... back at work. :(

Tyler playing the piano

Future Beethoven?

Chopped Liver

Recently, Tyler has been preferring daddy to put him to sleep. Poor mommy is now chopped liver. On the bright side, she can usually "try" to sleep early. Can't say this always works, as there is always something that needs to be done. In any event ... I know that babies go through such phases. It just makes me feel sad right now.

Jumperoo

Forgot to post these earlier.

Tiger Ball Toy

Now that Tyler can pretty much sit by himself, mommy has been opening his toys that's been piling up in his closet. His room has so much JUNK! Well not real junk, but stuff. He seems very interested in mostly eating the balls for now. But we'll be teaching him how to make some baskets!

Date Night

Mommy and Daddy finally got to go out on a long awaited date night. Aunty Wendy actually came up with the idea and happily volunteered to watch Tyler. Tyler has been getting a little more observant to his surroundings including who is with him ... so we hoped and prayed he wouldn't give Aunty Wendy too hard of a time.

We said "Goodbye" and waved happily as he bounced in the jumperoo and headed to the movies. Iron Man was actually good and not what mommy had expected. But dinner was even better! YUMMY YUMMY food from Los Gatos Brewing Company. (Mussels, surf and turf ... mmMMmMm mmMmMm good!) It was definitely a well deserved and long over due night out.

Back at home, Tyler was still up and happily watching baby einstein with Aunty Wendy. All had gone very well. Tyler had his moods ... but he does so even with us. They played, had dinner, and had lots of fun. Thanks so much Wendy!

T Rex PJ's

Aren't these adorable!?!?!?!

Giants Fan!

Go Giants! Although baseball isn't daddy's favorite sport, Tyler got a lot of Giant's stuff. (mostly from Evan) Here he is all SMILES!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! Tyler made mommy a wonderful present at daycare ... take a look!

Daddy also got mommy a cool present. She is using it to type and publish this post as we speak.

It was mommy's first mother's day, so it was very special. She won't ever forget it and look forward to many more to come.

All better (for the most part)

Tyler finished his medication on Sunday. He is no longer throwing up or having extra watery poops! WOOHOO! He still fusses more than normal, but we are hoping that is due to teething. We aren't 100% sure that's the case, but its better to think that for the time being. He HAS started drooling more and stuffs everything he can into his mouth. So ... it IS a possibility.

We're just happy he is all better now. His sleeping pattern also seems to be going back to normal. We are still looking forward to him sleeping through the night. Hopefully that happens soon!

Leap Frog Tummy Toy

Here's a tummy time toy that mommy got for Tyler. He still hates being on his Tummy, but at least now he can last just a tiny bit longer.

the Chicken Dance

Tyler got some goodies from Grandpa Rex and his co-workers the other week. Here he is watching his new chicken toy. LOL

Sick, sick, sick

Tyler has been slowly getting better. Mommy and daddy kept him home Monday and Tuesday and picked him up early on Thursday. He seems to not be tolerating his milk very well and has been drinking a lot of pedialyte. He has been taking his antibiotics, but it has been very challenging to get him to take it. Now that he is older he will keep turning his head with his mouth tightly closed.

His other new thing is sleeping LATE at night (after 11pm) and waking up at 3 or 4 wanting to play. We're not sure why this is happening, but we are almost zombies because of it. In any event, we can't wait till Tyler is all better. Now that he cries with "real" tears, it is so sad when he does.

Happy Boys Day!

Today is Tyler's very first boys day! One mommy and daddy will always remember because Tyler is SICK again! He had a runny nose last week and then inherited a cough. On Sunday he threw up his night time bottle of 5oz all over our bed and woke up with a fever Monday morning. So after a doctor's appointment today ... he has bronchitis and is on antibiotics for the week.

Below are some pictures mommy was able to take yesterday before the mishap. She tried to make the background white with a sheet, but as you can see, it didn't work out very well.
