I did it!

After weeks of trying to get this blog thing up and running, I think I am finally ready to start posting. Thanks to all my friends who wouldn't get off my case until it was done (Jillian).
We are finally starting to get into a routine with Tyson. He has started sleeping through the night. The lack of sleep you inherit with a baby is in my opinion was the hardest part about becoming a parent . I got to stay home with him for the first three months, and then went back to work part-time in January. Tyson goes to the company daycare that is on-sight so I can visit him whenever I want . I am actually enjoying the balance of stay at home mommy and part-time career.
Tyson is almost 20 pounds and has started wearing 9 month-1 year clothes. He has started rolling over and sitting on his own. He loves to be out in pulic and is already a great little shopping buddy (much to Ben's dismay).
Other than Tyson, nothing is really new with Ben or myself. We have a couple fun trips coming up. We are visiting Ben's parents in a few weeks which we are really excited for. His Grandma can't wait to get her hands on him! In May we will celebrate our 5 year anniversary a few months early with a cruise. We convinced our friends the Holidays to come with us, so it should be a lot of fun. It just what we need after a long cold winter. My mom and sister agreed to watch Tyson while we are gone, so I will be able to relax knowing he is in great hands, although I get a little sad thinking I will not see him for 5 days. Other than that we are just trying to keep our kid alive!
