Pre-Tyler

These pictures were taken before Ty was born. Papa came to play with me the week before Ty was born, but Ty wanted to meet Papa before he went back to Florida, so he came a week early. Here I am just hanging out, Cheese!

Uncle Bill came up from Philly to visit with Papa and I. We took him to the diner of course. He was with Papa and I went Mommy went to the hospital Monday night. Thanks Uncle Bill for playing with me!

The weather was great the week Ty was born, so we I rode my bike and went to the playground.

I was ready to go outside, I had my hat on and was trying to put on my shoes.

Papa, what are you looking at on the laptop? Papa helped me bounce on a ball. So fun!

Our new dinning room table was delivered on Ty's birthday. Thank goodness Papa and Daddy were home. I was trying to help them figure out how the table extended.

Ty's week old picture

My brother is almost 3 weeks old but here are his one week old pictures. I forgot to post earlier. We have been busy the last few weeks.

I was just reading the newspaper but for some reason Mom, Laurie and Nana thought it was the funniest thing. I was cracking them up.

Surprise

My Aunt Laurie flew in from Italy to surprise Mommy. Tyler and I were so excited to see her. She is so much fun. Thank you Laurie for coming all this way to help us. We love you!

Cousin Wendy came to meet my brother too. She always makes us laugh.

Tyler has been more awake these days.

I love hugging my brother and sharing my toys with him.

Here I am hugging him again. I just love him so much.

Books & Toys on my shelf

Today during my nap, I couldn't sleep so instead I arranged all my books and toys on the shelf above my crib. When I get older, maybe I'll arrange all my books using the Dewey Decimal System.

Tyler & Mommy come home from the Hopsital!

Tyler and Mommy came home from the hospital today. Here they are in their "going home" outfits. This is the first and probably last time that Tyler will wear something that is not a hand me down from me.

Mommy & Tyler left the hospital in a wheelchair...

Here is Tyler strapped into my old car seat and on the back porch of the house with Daddy...

Tyler interrupted my lunch.

Here's Daddy showing Tyler ESPN in hi-def. All I can say is get used to it Ty, it's on all the time!

There are some really strange noises coming from my brother!

Visiting Tyler & Mommy at the Hospital

Every day this week, Papa, Daddy and I have been visiting Tyler and Mommy at the hospital.

On the first day, Tyler gave me a gift of one of my favorite things -- books.

On the second day, my friend Cameron gave me a Mr Potatohead

Here I am trying to help Tyler put on his hat

Here are some of the first family photos.

Daddy spent every night at the hospital in a really uncomfortable pull-out bed, poor Daddy!

Here I am helping Mommy push around my little brother.

Here is how we left my baby brother every night, boy he sleeps a lot!

Happy Birthday Tyler!

So on Tuesday at 11:03 pm, my baby brother Tyler was born. Here's a photo of Daddy taken by a really nice nurse, right outside the operating room...

Here's Tyler, he's maybe 5 minutes old here (I'll make sure to show this photo to his girlfriends when he's older).

Here's a photo of him on the scale, he's only 1 oz less than I was (8 lbs 7 oz) so I'll still beat him at wrestling!!!

Papa took a rest from watching me to hold Tyler:

Checking on my brother made me thirsty!

Tyler gave me this really cool phone!













I have a beautiful baby brother, he looks just like me!
