Tyler's many faces




It seems the only muscles Tyler has control over are his face muscles.  He can't even hold his head up, his arms flail around pretty much on their own, but he could teach acting classes at the community college with his facial contortions. Watching him reminds me of those fridge magnets of the emotion faces - y'know, the "Today I'm... [fill in the emotion]." 

Check out these photos... You can cut along the lines and stick these on magnets for your own "Fridge emotion" display if you want.

It takes a village...










Takes a village to raise a kid, right?  I couldn't agree more.  Our family, friends and neighbors have already done more than they could know.  If you're in one of those categories, and I assume you are if you're reading this blog, THANK YOU!!!  Everyone has been so generous with their time, food, thoughts and prayers.  It's humbling to be the recipient of so much abject selflessness. 

We really appreciate all the meals, the advice, the offers to help, mowing lawns, gifts, kind words, etc.  We are surrounded by so many good people.  

Aside from the obvious benefits of this generosity, it's been great to hang out with a lot of cool people.  Having a kid is a good excuse to visit with people and have friends over as much as possible.  We've loved all the visitors, especially when they tell us Tyler is cute.  Keep on comin'! One of these days we'll get you back for everything you've done for us. (Oh, and if you visited and your photo isn't posted here, it's because we forgot to take one - all the more reason to come visit us again. Also, there's a limit to the number of photos this site lets me upload.)
