So I realized that I hadn't updated this in a while. And then I realized that there hasn't been much to share, as we've been trapped indoors for a few weeks, thanks to Mother Nature. As you all know (and are probably experiencing yourselves), we've had a ton of snow this winter so far. And most people have snow pictures to share with others. Not us. After December's dumping of snow, Tyler hasn't had any interest whatsoever in playing in the white stuff. So we've been hanging out inside, making cookies and playing. But there are a few things to mention.
We did head to Lynchburg a few weekends ago to visit Grandpa, Cindy, Eddie, & Emily. I had to go shopping for bridesmaid dresses with Emily for the wedding, so we did that while the boys played at Grandpa's with good old Maverick. We also met Cindy's son & his family that weekend, and it was great to meet them and to introduce Cindy's 16 month old grandson, Mason, to Tyler. We sure do know lots of Masons now! I believe that this is #3 for us! (And no, sorry, I have no pictures from the trip. Somehow, I actually forgot my camera. I believe that this is a first for me since Tyler was born.)
In other news, Tyler is potty-trained!!! In the last post, I mentioned that he had started wearing big boy underwear. Well, he's in underwear all day and at nap, and is only in a pull-up for nighttime and is dry in the mornings 80% of the time. Our last big hurdle was pooping in the potty, but all of a sudden he just got it. And he hasn't looked back since then. *knock on wood* He hasn't had an accident in weeks. We are so proud of him, and he is proud of himself. He is constantly reminding us that he is a big boy now, and that diapers are for babies. And we are excited every time we walk down the diaper aisle at Target because we don't need anything there anymore!!! WOOHOO!
Tyler was scheduled to start his Little Gym classes this past weekend, but the snow cancelled it. So he'll have his first real class this Saturday, hopefully. We're looking forward to having something fun for him to do on weekends, besides run errands with us. I'm also looking into swimming lessons for him as we get closer to summer. I've found a decent deal on classes at the American Family Fitness near our house, and can get him enrolled any time after he turns 3. We'll wait until April or May, I'm sure, but we know that he'll love that too, since he loves the water so much. So lots about to go on around here - if only it would stop snowing for us to do it all!!!!

Congrats again Tyler on the potty success! And, you look like a natural on that balance beam! I can't wait to see you rolling and flipping all over the place :)
