Happy Birthday Tyler!

I can't believe my little Tyler is SEVEN years old today! Time really does fly by. Seven years ago today I was in active labor for 27 hours before I finally had my very first baby boy. I tried my hardest to have a natural birth, but gave up around hour 25 of labor and got my epidural. I remember holding Ty in the hospital in the middle of the night and as I watched my sweet boy, he opened his little eyes and looked right at me. It melted my heart and I fell even deeper in love with him. I didn't know that my love for him could grow so much more over the years. Tyler is a sweet, smart, caring, obedient boy who wants to do the right thing always. We are so grateful to have in our family. We love you Tyler!

We had a great little get together today with my parents, my little brother Ben, and my Grandma Aird this evening. Here are some of the photos I tookTyler asked me yesterday if he could have a "General Grievous cake" It was a little daunting, but if that's what my boy wants, I will do my best to make it. Though, making a picture out of frosting is a little bit more difficult than other mediums. It turned out OK I guess. Tyler told me "That is like the most awesome cake ever!" and that made all the work worth it.
