Today was Gymboree day, the day we now look forward to all week long. While we were in class Ty screamed and squealed the entire time. All the moms kept laughing at him which only encouraged him. Them while we were doing singing circle time, Ty got bored and took off. I had to retrieve him crawling up a huge ramp which also impressed all the moms and teacher.



Ty was the only one in class that could wave and while we're at it I may as well share that he can also give you "high 5" and clap. Take that all you other average 7 month olds.

After Gymboree, we went to Whole Foods which was nice to go to a normal, clean grocery store where people looked nice, acted nice and had all their teeth. I am sick of the Walmart and Kroger in Frankfort. Do you know how hard it is to buy organic vegetables in Kentucky. No hippies here I suppose



Oh I had to include this last picture because I love it. Ty and Patrick were playing with the ball so I tried to use my cell phone camera to take a picture of them without Ty knowing so he wouldn't look directly at the camera and smile. The kid saw the flash and was able to get a pose out. He is just like me!!

Wordless Wednesday (kind of)

I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be.

Gymboree

From my facebook today
Today at gymboree a lady told me that I had better be having more kids because Ty was just too cute for me to only have one of him. I need to populate this world with my good genes. Hey I think I kind of like these kentuckians.

And no I'm not lying she really said this to me, I couldn't make this stuff up.
I entered Ty in the Capital City Cutest Kid Contest today. I hope he wins. I don't even want the dumb prize, I just want the title. Kind of like a pageant mom but without the creepy spray tanning my baby.

Project 365

I read a lot of blogs these days. Other mom blogs, fashion blogs, coupon blogs and something that I noticed a lot of them doing was something called Project 365.Project 365 is taking a picture every single day of something thats going on in your life. I thought this was such a cool idea and not a huge challenge since I pretty much take a picture of Ty every day anyway. So I decided what I will do is make a picture collage and post it once a week of all the pictures from the week and maybe write a one sentence description of what each picture is. So here is the first week of 2011...




1-At an awesome park we found here in KY. Complete with waterfalls, streams and elks that Payton chased after.
2-Ty dressed for the Chicago Bears game against the Packers
3-The view I see now everytime I eat. I have 3 beggars now Paris, Payton and Ty
4-Playing at home in a Nike track suit
5-Ty playing with Payton. He could seriously pull her ear off of her head and she wouldn't care.
6-Ty finally met Uncle Mike!
7-I took this because he cracks me up when he eats, he just shoves like 6 things in his mouth at once.
8-Ty discovered stairs, crap.

Nice to Meet You

Ty had a BIG day today! First, he met his great-uncle Mike. Mike came to visit us from Myrtle Beach finally. He always emails me to tell me how adorable Ty is and when he saw him today he said that he didn't think it was possible but Ty was even cuter in person.






We also had our first Gymboree class today and Ty absolutely loved it! He's in a gym class that's for 6-10 months and he could be moved up to the next class. He is so much more advance then everyone else in there. He was so friendly and well behaved. He was outgoing and went up to other babies, talked to them and wasn't scared of anything. He even went right up to the instructor and took a ball away from her. He also took ball away from 3 other kids, guess we're going to have to work on sharing.

He loved playing with the parachute and sliding on the slides. I couldn't believe how outgoing he was. Also it was kind of fun making all the other moms there feel a bit inadequate about how behind their own kids are so that being said here is my facebook post for the day before class:
"Ty starts his Gymboree class today. I'm so excited. Ty's a little nervous that the other babies won't like him. I told him that was impossible."
And after class:
"it brings me great joy that my child makes other mothers feel inadequate because he is so much more advanced then theirs. is that bad? ty crawled circles around the kids in his class today."

Wordless Wednesday

Its what all bloggers do so here's my wordless wednesday...

Track Suit Tuesday

"I vacuumed my baby today with my shop vac. He didn't mind"

Ty loves the vacuum cleaner, always has. Apparently he loves it so much that he doesn't care if I use it to clean him up after a snack in his high chair. I wish my dogs would let me vacuum them.



Not a super eventful day today. Ty did fall out of his high chair and landed face first on the ground. I saw it happen and it seemed to go in slow motion. I was right next to him but I hadn't fastened the tray all the way and he pushed it open. I felt horrible but he only cried for a few seconds and had a small bump on his head that I got to go down with an ice pack. So much so that had I not left the ice pack laying out, his father would have never even known anything had happened. Sorry Ty guy.
