update on Tyler!!

He definitely still likes getting his own way and will occasionally kick, scream and cry if you won't let him have what it is he wants...the good news is it doesn't last very long unless he is really tired and he is ready for a nap...he has stopped pulling my hair and will sometimes still pull and pick on his sister..but it is becoming less and less...this little guy can EAT...he loves fruit and vegetables more than anything, would rather eat veggies more than anything else..I'm excited about that...Aleaya only like peas....NOTHING else green better touch her plate...maybe she will eat an occasion carrot depending on the day...he hates cheese and macaroni and cheese,yogurt,potatoes unless they are in the form of a french fry...Skeeter NEVER stops...he is constantly moving and now I know why he is so skinny and so hungry all the time...he burns off everything he eats...and wants more within the hour-so Mommy better not leave the house without snacks or we are in trouble....We have ventured out lots of places and it has been good....I thought it would be so much harder with two and that I would be home a lot but it has been great...love my new double stroller...works out great...he is really sweet and loves his sister..every morning the first thing out of Aleayas mouth "is Skeeter up, Momma?" she so loves her little brother too.....

We have a Dr. appt with his ortho surgeon tomorrow, we will see what needs to be done with his feet other than the fact that he needs a new brace...I think maybe he will need some more casting done..and hopefully we can take care of his little toe fungy.....poor little guy!!!!

We feel very blessed to have this little one in our lives and it was a long and sad road to get to where we are today but soooooooo worth it.........I finally feel that our family is complete...with one angel in Heaven and 4 here on earth......thank you Jesus for blessing our family once again!!!

Erika,

I am glad that Skeeter is doing so good! Girl...taking 2 kids out is NOTHING! I took my 4 little ones(6,4,2&2) shoe shopping this evening. They destroyed the store!!
