Every Friday, while Mommy and Anna snuggle at home, Daddy and Tyler take Alex to school and then have some special Daddy/Tyler time. They head over to a bagel shop in U. Village close to Alex's school and get a big bagel loaded with cream cheese. It has become a really cute weekly father/son 'tradition'...and I think is especially appreciated by Tyler as our family grows and it's harder to get solo time with mom and dad.
Recently we also had a very important "first" in our family - our first black eye! I'm not sure how Alex has made it 4 years without one, especially once his little brother got big enough to tackle him (they only weigh about 4 lbs different), but Tyler won this race. He was playing at his Papa and Nana's house and tried to jump on Papa's back while Papa was giving Alex a horsey-ride, Tyler missed and banged his eye on Papa's shoulder. I must admit that it's probably a bit of carma since Tyler gave Papa a little shiner a couple of months ago.
