Daddy N' Me

I have always been impressed with the way Ty so naturally plays the part of Daddy. Because of my own growing up...I (perhaps unfairly) expected a lot from a man in that department and Ty does so well. The following are some pix I've taken with him and our little ones:


(just a side note: look at Vanna's little gut hanging over her pants - she's really growing but she hasn't grown out of sucking on that hand yet:))


Ty genuinly enjoys spending time with Cash and Vanna. Vanna adores Ty and Cash would much rather play (rough house) with his dad than me and gets so excited when Daddy comes home. He follows him around everywhere and always wants Ty to hold him when he first gets home. And, of course, there's drama when Ty leaves in the morning for work.



The main reason we're here in Payette is because we prize the time we get to spend together as a family and because Ty wanted to be home with the kids as much as possible. His job offers Sundays and Holidays off, he's home in the evenings and has three days off a week -one week he has Wed., Thurs., Sun. off and the next he has Fri., Sat., Sun. off so it works out great. We have really enjoyed having Daddy home and available (while in school he was often home but studying so not "really" home). We are truly blessed!

That's awesome you guys get to spend so much time together! Cash looks more and more like Ty. I especially like the picture of Cash with Ty in his smock. He looks very professional!

What a happy family. I bet life is much sweeter when daddy is home more often. Ty looks so professional, hope he likes his job. Vanna is a cutie.

Hey- Erica. What days will you be here exactly? I'm trying to plan a little birthday party for Carson, and we'd love it if Cash could come! (Poor Carson's friends are ALL girls now! We wanted to do a train party, but I'm just not sure if all the girls will like it as much!) Anyway, let me know when you guys will be down, or even if you'd have time. I'm sure you'll be busy with family, and I understand that! Also, we did want to get together for lunch. (Niccole, Sydney, me, etc.) Just let me know!
