This reminded me of when my own kids were little and pulling out all of their toys to play with. For some reason it doesn't bother me like it use to with my kids.

Babysitting Tyson
Last Wednesday, Emily had a doctor's appointment so I got to watch Tyson for the afternoon. We played outside for awhile but then went inside after it got a bit cold. Jason had told me that Tyson was very tired and needed a nap so I let him play for a bit then turned on the tv since that is what Jason said to do. If there were cartoons or a video on the tv, Tyson would fall asleep. Well as you can see, he was tired. So tired that he decided to take all the toys out of the cupboard and the box and dump them. Then the pillows came off the couch. Finally I found a station that had a cartoon on it and he settled down to watch it. It didn't take him long to just fall asleep and stay that way for 2 hours! Isn't he cute?!

Here's our lil' turkey!
I didn't get too many good pictures but here are a few of Corbin. He's a cutie! And what dark hair he has! He looks like Tyson when he was born but we also see Josie in him too. Will be fun to get them all together for pictures....we sure love these grandbabies!
A "day" in the life of Tyson
We had a GREAT time keeping Tyson for a couple of nights while Emily and Jason were at the hospital having little Corbin! I picked him up at the hospital after Jason called and said the doctor wouldn't let Emily go home after he checked her.
We had dinner and then Tyson had a bath in "gramma's tub" with bubbles.
Janessa came to the rescue and let us borrow her and Kasey's air mattress to use as a makeshift bed for Tyson. He loved it! He actually didn't sleep this way, he was turned around the other way. It's fun to see Tyson sleeping under his own daddy's blanket I made Jason 28 years ago (and with no sewing machine)! Tyson slept really well at night though at 3:30 a.m. I hear this lil' voice saying, "Hey Gramma!" He wanted to know what "that noise was"...it was the furnace going on and off. I told him to go to sleep and he did until after 7 a.m.
Janessa and I had our monthly Block of the Month meeting at Valley Fabric...that Emily--what she will do to miss a month!...and then we came home and got grampa and Tyson and drove to Kemmerer and Rock Springs. You can see Tyson loved the balloon he got at Ace Hardware in Kemmerer. Too bad the balloon started to fly out the door and Janessa popped it trying to get it back in the car later that evening.
In Rock Springs, after Janessa bought her wood flooring, we ate at Village Inn. Tyson thought it was fun to put his feet on the table and show us some tricks.
One of Tyson's tricks he can do!
Tyson was loving Village Inn and kept asking me to take more pictures of him.
On to Home Depot for more errands for Janessa. Tyson loved "driving" this cart.
While at Home Depot, Jason called and asked us to bring Tyson to the hospital. Here he is....still being the great lil' traveler! We put alot of miles on the car this day! Tyson loved seeing his mommy!
And meeting new "Baby Brother"!
Of course seeing daddy is always fun too!
After visiting "Baby Brother", we went to Wal-Mart to pick up some essentials and then on to Arby's for dinner before heading home. Tyson was loving his roast beef sandwich.
He asked me to take a picture of him eating his sandwich with his "dip" (Arby sauce). I tell ya, he loves pictures of himself!
It was a very long trip home since I-80 was closed because of wrecks. It was snowing, sometimes hard, but we decided to drive the long way home through Randolph and Kemmerer. Good thing we didn't try to wait for I-80 to open....we heard that it didn't open back up until 2 a.m.! When we finally got home, after driving 2 1/2 extra hours, we let Tyson play and then he had another bath so he could fall asleep easily since he had been sleeping most of the way home and gramma and grampa were now tired.
While at Wal-Mart, we let Tyson pick out a toy to celebrate the birth of his new brother. Of course we knew he would pick a truck with a trailer! He wanted to take it to Church this a.m. but I was able to convince him to pick another car to take.
After being so good at Church and eating lunch, we took him back home to be with his mommy and daddy and new lil' Corbin. Tyson is going to be a great big brother!
The house seems so quiet and empty now that he has gone home.

Watch out Baby coming!
What it looks like to be dialated to an 8-----Emily style! Baby came about an hour after I took this picture of her!
What it looks like for Jason and Tyson to be waiting in the hospital hallway-----definitely their own style!

Corbin John Anderson
I think this little guys name is Corbin. He was born on Friday the 13th at 6pm MST. I added the Wyoming logo in case you didn't want to see the nudity Joel. He was pretty comfortable here and actually just peed a few minutes before on the nurse.He came fairly quickly after about 4 contraction pushes he was out and purple as can be! I hope we are ready for number 2!

When you take no pictures during the week......
.....Here's what you end up with......thought I would at least take a pic of our dinner we had Sunday night. Oh yum....look at those green veggies that we are eating! At least Joel will see that we have new plates to eat off of!
Josie Learning to Love the Swing
For all of Josie's long life (6 weeks), she has not enjoyed her swing. She would cry when we put her in. But when she would not fall asleep in her bed for her morning nap the other day, I thought I would give the swing another try. She was already swaddled and overly tired...and now guess what? She loves her swing! Yeah!
