Well it is official...Tyler is 8 now! I cannot believe it was 8 years ago that God blessed us with this little redheaded bundle of joy. Ben and I were talking last night of how fast time has gone by. It seems like not that long ago I was wondering around the house 9 months pregnant (and weighing in like a sumo wrestler by the way) impatiently awaiting his arrival. He came 3 days past his due date on a Sunday night. Our lives have never been the same since he came. He has made it more rich, more purposeful, more joyful, and more lovely. Words wouldn't do justice to the way we feel about this little guy.
We of course started the morning off like any birthday boy would want...presents...then pancakes in the shape of the number 8 for breakfast
Tyler didn't want a birthday party this year. He asked instead for some mommy/daddy time. So we took him alone to White Water for the day. Tyler says he still feels like he is in the wave pool. :)
They rode this one twice. Me...yeah try zero times. I was very proud of Tyler for braving it. Even Ben said he got a little nervous when they got to the top of the stairs.
We finished off the night with a nice birthday dinner and then church. Tyler didn't know it but we had a cake waiting on him at church. He love Pirates! So he especially loved his cake.
