The Little Man In My Life

This past week, has been a GREAT one!  It all started late last Thursday night, when the hubby came home.   Two months is a long time to be apart, and me & the ladies were excited to finally have him home!!  

The plan, was to be induced on the 25th of March at 6 pm.  Nature and the little man, thought otherwise.  I started to feel contractions a few hours before I picked up Chiki from the airport.  Contractions SUCK, but I was so excited that the baby waited for daddy ... and couldn't help but laugh about the whole situation.  The little man pretty much took his time, and I held off going to the hospital until around 4 pm.  Only a few hours before the scheduled induction.  Little man was born at 7:30, and the rest was history!

Needless to say, after months of worrying about daddy not being there ... things happened the way they were supposed to and I couldn't ask for anything more.

Introducing the ever so HANDSOME Tyler!  6 lbs 07 oz 19 1/2 inches
 Tyler's 2nd mommy & very proud big sister
 Tyler's other super proud big sister
 Getting ready to leave.  Got to dress them up, while you can!
 Just chilling

Can't forget pictures of the proud Grandparents






I am pretty sure that this little man, should get the best baby award.  Not only have I only heard him cry once (yep, that's right ... he just squawks), but he also sleeps at least 6 hours through the night.  Chiki & I are just waiting.  Things are running, way too smooth with little Ty!

On a side note, me & Chiki are a slight mess, and would probably leave you rolling with laughter if you were to watch us.  We had to run and buy a new car the other day, so we could all go somewhere at the same time.  For some odd reason, I was pretty sure we could all fit in the TSX.  Boy was I wrong.  After days of taking turns running around by our lonesomes, we couldn't take it anymore and finally caved yesterday ... which leads into a whole other issue.  You would have thought that Chiki & I were first time parents from the disasters we were, when leaving the house yesterday with little man.   Who needs a bottle, wipes, extra diapers.  None of those are very important ... right :)

Anyhow, things are great.  I am loving getting to know sweet little Tyler, watching the ladies with him, and having the husband around!

Wow, Kirsten! What a great story! I didn't even know that you had had him! Somehow I missed that. I feel bad! Tyler is so cute! I love his little outfit in the "dressed-up" pic. What a cute little family! I can't believe you have 3 kids now. The girls have really grown up. They are so cute. I miss you! Btw you look so pretty (as always).
