A Few More Firsts at the Lundstrom's

I am a little behind on some of my posts, but here are a couple pretty big things happening around here!


Tyson lost his first tooth!! We knew it was loose so we have been reading lots of books about it. One night I noticed it was really loose, so I started working on it. He was crying the whole time but he really wanted it out of there so he let me wiggle it. He kept pulling away and would say, "Did you get it Mom?" It was very cute. He left the next morning for school with the tooth hanging and I picked him up and it was gone. We have no idea where it went, but luckily the tooth fairy came anyway!



Charlie is walking!! One day he decided to take a few steps, the next day he was walking. It is crazy how fast he caught on once he decided he was ready. It is just so cute when babies start walking. It is one of my favorite stages. It is also crazy how you forget how much a baby walking changes your life. He wants to go everywhere. We take Tyson to school and he is down the hall flirting with the first graders! I love it though! I didn't realize how much it was bothering me that he wasn't walking until he finally started. Whew, another thing down! As my sister said, "Now we can start potty training!"

Grandparents Lunch

Friday was Grandparents Lunch Day at school for Tyson. You would think that since all his grandparents live in Iowa he would not have had anyone to eat with. Wrong! When we called to tell his grandparents about it they all wanted to come. Unfortunately for Pat and Lumpy they already had plans for the weekend so they could not make it. But my mom did make it so he did not have to be alone. Joel had gone to eat with him on Monday and Tyson did not have much to do with him, so we were worried that mom would drive all the way here and Tyson wouldn't even acknowledge it. Wrong Again! I was there helping out so I got to see it all happen. Tyson walked into the gym and was looking around everywhere for Grandma. He finally found her and was so excited! They walked through the line and he did not stop smiling. It was so cute. thanks Grandma for coming! Pat and Lumpy - you are invited anytime to come eat with him. Mom promises it is worth the 10 hours of driving!

While she was here we also made sugar cookies, one of Tyson's favorite things to do. He is getting pretty good at it and it keeps his attention for quite awhile. He is so proud of the end product as you can see!



He had to get a picture with his lunchbox, that, by the way, is always empty because he does not want to take a lunch!





Home Alone?


I thought this picture was hilarious, and then Joel said he looked like the kid in Home Alone and I thought it was even funnier! (I was trying to get a picture of his horrible bed head.)
