I can't believe I am dealing with this stage again (*sigh*)
It seems like only yesterday that Ethan was a toddler, doing all these things! Time has gone by so quickly. Tyler is only 14 months old but he is a True Toddler. Redheads are supposed to have fiery tempers to match their hair, although anyone who knows Rob won't believe that. However, Tyler has already proven to have quite a nasty temper if he doesn't get his own way! He is usually a very happy boy, but he can quickly change his tune if things aren't going well.
This is just the beginning of a long & bumpy ride, I'm sure! Nevertheless, I'm more than happy to be on board.
