My Little, Big Boy

Ty Matthew

When Matt & I decided to have a 3rd child, we anticipated the wait to be short. But not so. There is a 5 1/2 year gap between Ty & Susie. Ty was born November 16, 2004 at 5 wks premature. However, his premature delivery has not seemed to slow him down!

It was a long wait, but I finally got my boy!

Ty has had his (un)fair share of ear and sinus infections (too many to count). If anybody should be immuned to antibiotics it would be him! With the help of Dr. Hurley (ENT -- or otolaryngologist to be technical), he's had his tonsils & adenoids removed and ear tubes installed. Maybe one day (I hope), Ty won't be sick!

Some of Ty's favorite things are:
  • Going to the park
  • Playing cars with cousin Tommy
  • Watching Mickey Mouse
  • Riding the bus to preschool
  • Attending preschool
  • Taking a "bath tub" (as he would say)
  • Jumping on the trampoline
  • Swimming
  • Riding his bike
  • Kalia & Susie
  • The color pink (uh, yeah, not sure where this came from -- couldn't have been two older sisters???)
  • Piggy back rides

I thought that Ty would be so difficult to potty train because when we first discussed the idea, he had no interest (surprise, surprise)! But with the help of Spiderman, Batman, Lightening McQueen (Cars) and Power Rangers, we've made it! So thank you to you all!

Here's my Big Boy Ty at three years old.
We love you Ty!
