First Steps!

Trevor has taken his first steps! He will be 10-months-old in six days! I can't believe how fast the last ten months have flown by. He took a little step to my dad this past Sunday, and then today, with daddy home, he stepped from me to his daddy. He only took a few steps, a few different times, but with every day I am sure he will improve! We were all so excited, he was clapping his hands together! Tonight, when Ty is home to video, I will try to catch some footage of him in action!

Sick Of Being Sick

We have been taken over by a nasty stomach bug the past two weeks. Ty was home from school for two days, and I have only left this house two times in seven days. I am still not eating much and trying to pull it together, Phil is finally feeling a bit better, and Trev and Ty are on the mend. I have been about to pull my hair out, though. We have had colds, this nasty stomach bug, and Trev has a new tooth...enough to make any mommy want to scream. I don't have any new pictures to post, we haven't been the most photogenic lately. I will try to capture a pic of that toothy grin in the next few days. He now has a whopping two teeth!

Busy! Busy! Busy!

I do apologize for not blogging sooner....I have been so busy! I started back to school at IUK a few weeks ago, and I have been spending quite a bit of my time just adjusting to my new routine. Tyler finished up a great basketball season with a chance to play halftime at the Marion Giant game last Friday. He is still involved at CSA and is planning to begin guitar lessons in the next few weeks, and possibly a swim class at the YMCA before baseball season starts. Trevor is standing alone all of the time now, he just lets go and stands there, holding his toys. He is a handful, and really likes to pull things off of shelves and cabinets. He is communicating with us more often now, although he really doesn't say 'mama' like I would like-he is saying 'bubba' and 'Dada' and 'hi' and 'bye bye' and he even tried to say 'Ted' the other day-this is the nickname we accidentally gave Ty a few years back.
We have had some snow lately and a few delays and cancellations-these are a big hit around here. Trevor had the chance to play in Ty's room with his dinos and he felt like a king. Ty's room is like uncharted territory-filled with many small and exciting things that Trev is not allowed anywhere near. Ty joined the Tucker's for an afternoon of sledding and tunnel building in the snow this weekend. I am afraid it wore him out, since he woke up this morning sick as a dog and had to stay home from school.
Phil is great, and work is keeping him very busy-he has some leadership changes happening, and some adjusting to do, but as far as business goes, Wal-Mart is still shipping plenty of groceries.
We had a visit from Phil's Aunt Angie from Florida this weekend, and we were able to go out and have a cocktail-we had a great time and it was so good to see her. She is a blast!
Here are a few pics from our night out, Ty's game, and the snow days. Enjoy.
