The sun finally came out this last week, just in time for us to enjoy the birthday of our son!! We have been having a great time enjoying the first glimpses of spring as well as our new one year old!!
This was Ty's first time crawling on and touching grass. He was quite tentative at first but as soon as he became accustomed to it, he was eating moss and sticks and rocks!
We have had some crazy weather here lately. Days of sun, rain, wind, hail and sometimes all at the same time!! Here it was pouring rain with some brilliant sun shining down on the valley. (In Chilliwack this is what we classify as brilliant sun. ;) We are definitely hurting in the sunshine department right now!)
Ty's had some fun playing with his older girlfriends recently . . .
And a pink and purple soother. Hmmmm
And a bit of drinking and driving . . . Uh Oh! He also happened to pour coffee all over his books and beer all over his pajamas the morning these picture were taken.
My mom arrived yesterday to help Ty celebrate his birthday.
Skyping with Nana and Grandpa, singing "Happy Birthday!"
He liked the candle more than the cake. What kind of kid doesn't like cake and icing? Not his mother's son, that's for sure!! He wouldn't even eat the icing when it was mixed in with sweet potato!!! (I am giving a lot of my bad mothering practices away in this post aren't I? Judge not lest ye be judged.) ;)
Today we were busy preparing for Ty's party tomorrow. You will have to wait to see full cake pictures later this week!
ty had a great week with grandma. he started walking, and she taught him how to go down stairs backwards and how to feed himself with a spoon.
after a recent reminder of how tasty yorkshire puddings are, kylie made a stunning first attempt. light and airy, crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
just to solidify the knowledge, she followed it up with another beautiful batch the next night to go with the leftovers. fantastic.
spring has finally arrived in the valley. time for summer tires! super grip, but only over 4 degrees.
