Blogger was blocked in China. I am recreating the journey to Eli by adding and backdating posts starting on Dec 19. Will take a little time.

All Grown Up

Tyler is 18 months old today!

Where has the time gone? She is no longer a baby - she is a full year plus a half! She is growing so fast into a little girl.

Independence is her new middle name! She is slowly asserting her will and need to do things herself. We've even had a tantrum or two. Ty studies her world and everything around her; figuring out how things work, imagining what she can do, and trying things for the sake of trying. She continues to learn more every day and we continue to learn from her.

She has settled into our family and we couldn't ask for a better fit. Daily life is now an adventure to cherish. Happy 1 1/2 Year Birthday Ty! We love you.

For your viewing pleasure: Tyler's referral picture (8 months) next to Tyler today (18 months) and two more for the sake of cuteness!

I can't believe how time flies. She is really starting to get the little girl look and leaving the baby look behind a little. Can't wait to watch her grow. Keep the post coming. I don't always check in every week, but I do check in and can't wait to see what Miss Tyler is up to! Cute as a button.
