9 Month Photos

These photos were taken the week before Ty's surgery.  He was quite grumpy that day and did not want me to put him down - EVER. I was not supposed to be in the photos, but ended up being in almost every single one. I was glad in the end because I think she captured the love I have for our little baby cakes. Our photographer is a NICU nurse and she just loved preemie Ty.

Ty is wearing the outfit that Clint was blessed as a baby in 33 years ago. 

Utah State

We went up to Logan, Utah where Clint was raised to celebrate his birthday last weekend. We decided to dress Ty up in his Utah State Aggie outfit and take some pictures at the college where Clint and I first met and both got our undergraduate degrees. As you can see Ty was not really in the mood to have his photo taken! He would much rather hang out with his cousins. 

Beautiful campus. Not much of a football team, but they try! Utah State is a family tradition! Both my parents and a couple of brothers graduated from Utah State and Clint's dad was a professor there for 40 years. 

Ty and his cousin Ellie. She is so good with him!

Ty loves to pull hair!

Beautiful fall colors on the drive up.

Ty's Funny Faces

Ty pushes his chin down like this a lot when he gets really excited. His second chin squishes out and pushes his already adorable chubby cheeks out even more. So very cute.

This was the first week Ty got his glasses and was not pleased. He made this face a lot to let me know how much he did not appreciate me putting the glasses on him. 

Ty concentrating so hard on gumming his fishy.

Ty's Smiles

You can't see his mouth but this kid smiles with his whole body - look at those happy eyes!

First Bites

Ty's Glasses Anywhere but ON!

Ty can throw his glasses pretty far when he wants to get rid of them.
