Christening

Tyler was christened at St. Elizabeth's Catholic Church in Uwchland, PA on Sunday 1/21/07. He was very well behaved the entire ceremony and only squirmed a little when the cold water hit his head. We had a reception at our house afterwards with about 50 people, so Tyler was really passed around and stimulated the entire day. It made for a very restless night for him (and for us!)--he couldn't get used to laying by himself in a crib. I guess I'd prefer to be held too if I had a choice.

Eyes

Tyler's eyes are changing color now, from blue to greenish with gold in the center--just like his daddy's eyes. He is also drooling continuously now and creates big puddles. Here he was playing with my college roommate, Dawn, who came from NJ for his christening. She kept him occupied and happy while I got dressed.

Flood Waters

Our water heater literally exploded--the metal front panel flew off and across the room, causing water to gush out all over our finished basement. It looks like all of the walls, flooring and most furniture are going to have to be ripped out and replaced. Jeff has been busy dealing with plumbers, cleaning companies, insurance adjusters and contractors. He is a real trooper though, while dealing with all of the water and its headaches, he is still taking care of Tyler and getting things ready for Tyler's christening this Sunday. Of course everything happens all at once :)

Playing with Daddy

I am now back to work and Jeff is taking a few months off to be home with Tyler. He thoughtfully started taking pictures of Tyler everyday so I won't feel like I'm missing everything.

New Years Day

Our New Year's was calm and relaxing with a few visitors to celebrate Jeff's birthday (Dec 31). Tyler watched the Nittany Lions beat Tennessee in the Outback Bowl.

Our First Christmas!

We got our present early this year--Tyler Jeffrey! Though he wasn't too happy to celebrate in his Santa hat.
