She is soo talented and you can't beat the price :) What she posted was only a preview and I can tell it will be hard to pick and choose. I know I am going to want them ALL!! She did them on Tues. afternoon and has been so quick getting everything edited and posted! You would never know from the pics Taytum was screaming 80% of the time trying to get me to pick her up :) She started the whole "stranger anxiety" thing last week. I am so excited to see the pics she took of Taytum in my mom's baby dress!! I will definatly post some of that when they are done!! She totally captured Tyson's personality! You should definatly check her blog out!!!

50% flu shot, V-Day and Taytum is 6 mo.!!

Starting on about the night of the10th Tyson and Taytum started waking up with fevers. By the second day Tyson was in pretty bad shape with the shakes and rapid breathing pretty much all day long. So that day (12th) I took him into the doc. I told them all his symptoms and they asked if he has had a flu shot. He did have a flu shot (the nasal spray). They swabbed him and came back to tell me he had type "B" flu...apparently the flu vaccine this year was geared more for type "A". I am glad he got the vaccine because it could have been worse...my mom had both type "A" and "B" for Christmas last year. NOT GOOD. So the next few nights were spent up giving them baths to cool down. No, not at the same time. They worked in shifts. Anyway, I wonder how long it will take them to figure out a shot for both types? Well these were the pics I took the day before it all started. I think little boys like dressing up in stuff as much as girls. It's always either the construction stuff, batman or optimus prime. Even to the movies :)

I think the construction stuff is his fave because it has an actual hammer, measuring tape, chalk line etc...

Valentine's morning...they are really good sports. They were both in pretty good moods despite how crappy they were feeling.

Valentine's Day was the first in 3 days that I got them out of their jammies. Rotating Tylenol and ibuprofen every 4 hours with lots of sleep seems to help a lot!! It also helps that he LOVES making treats! No pics of the finished product because we didn't make it past the baking.

Taytum is in the phase where she wants whatever I have. So I pretend to drink from her cup and she flips to have it. It works till she sees me drink from my cup and she throws hers down. So I just pick hers back up and pretend to drink from it again and the cycle continues! She did pretty good just to sit there and watch us make treats :)

Taytum went in for her 6 month check-up on the 16th.

Weight: 16.7 lbs (50%)

Height: 27 1/4" (95%)

At Tyson's 6 mo. he weighed 20 lbs. and was 27 1/2"!! Wow...they obviously get their height from their Daddy!!

??? Oh well...

She LOVES LOVES biter biscuits! She starts shaking and reaching for me when she sees me opening one...it cracks me up!

just for fun...

Taytum has been able to sit up on her own for a little over a week now! After her bath the other morning I sat her in her cradle so she could watch me and Tyson clean their room. She looked so cute I had to take some pics!!

Isn't that cradle pretty?! My very talented Daddy made it for me!! The quilt is the one that has "Charlotte" embroidered on it...I'll post better pics for another post!

I think she's had enough!

He has his daddy's blue eyes and my lashes! Hmmm...actually I wish I had those eyelashes :)

For Trev...remember when I bought that outfit? Good thing I put it on her, it almost doesn't fit :( Just thought you'd like to see it since you love her in pink and brown!

My parent's rock band broke so they boxed it up to send it back....so Tyson made his own drum set (he even has a foot petal)!! My mom and I thought it was pretty funny! Well Trev, I'm excited you are able to check this out! I hope this was a good update for ya!
