I know I am horrible!
Things have just been really busy still - I have not had time to update. Even work is busy for me which is a rarity. Anyhow..
Tyler has been doing AWESOME at his baseball games. He really is a good little player. Scott has been working with him on catching fly balls and grounders and things like that so hopefully his fielding will just get better. He never has a problem hitting and has some pretty nice hits. He has gotten a couple doubles and he LOVES when that happens!
This weekend we went to Jacksonville and he was SO excited to go! He couldn't wait and kept asking me when we were leaving. He wanted to go shopping with my mom - shocker! She bought him a new video game. Vicky had a birthday party at her house for her dad who is in from new Mexico and there were a ton of kids running around there so Tyler had a good old time.
His new thing now is he loves getting mail. My mom has been sending him money and cards and Max and Linda send him $2.00 every week to get donuts after church. You should see how excited he gets to check the mail! And if he gets mail? Forget about it!
A couple of weekends ago he had a playdate with Josh from school and he really liked that. He had never played with him before.
His latest is Gregory got a cell phone and now he wants one too. They have these children's cell phones that let you program 4 number into them and they can only call those numbers. So of course Tyler wants one too. Now, I think a seven year old having a cell phone is ridicules but at the same time I can see why it would be OK if he had one. First of all to add him to my plan is hardly any additional cost and the phone would just be a one time charge so anyhow I was looking this up on the internet and he found me! He got all excited and I said I didn't know if he was getting one, but if he was it would be for this birthday. He seriously started crying and said he wanted one now! "Gregory has one now and he got one for no reason why do I have to have a reason??" I was like if you act like this you won't get one at all! Then he said to me, "Fine! I will just buy one myself with my own money!" I was soooooooo mad!
So, I will try and update often but you know how that goes..

Sometimes I think this child is so spoiled and bratty! Other times I think he is just the sweetest thing. Oh boy.
So, that's all I can think of for now. He has a ton coming up. This week I am taking him to Disney and then for his spring break my mom is coming here to spend a few days with him and then she is taking him back to Jacksonville for the rest of the time. May 6th is his First Communion, May 27th is his birthday party and May 29th he leaves for Australia. Whew! In the mean time I need to get him a passport and find him a suit! I've already booked the place for his party, but I need to get all the stuff. STRESS.
So, I will try and update often but you know how that goes..
