I told myself that the one picture I had to have was of Troy playing with his toes.?? That is one of my favorite shots to mark this age.?? I realized this week that I had better hurry up and get the shot because Mr. Rollie Pollie is getting awfully mobile.???? He gave Mommy just what she wanted.?? :)?? I couldn’t pick a favorite of this pose so I’ll have to show you four.

This outfit was his Dedication outfit (first worn by Ryker Troy).?? I thought Jodi and I needed a good capture of this precious little white suit.

Not sure if you can tell in these shots or not, but Troy’s head shape is coming along very nicely 4 weeks into his DOC band.

I needed a stand up shot so you could see the whole outfit.?? My faithful assistant wasn’t really dressed for the occasion.?? The shirt he is wearing is a MineCraft shirt – that is a Creeper.?? :)?? Ty is playing MineCraft too and I giggle reading their instant messaging back and forth across the house.?? Very cute.

Someday Tori and Ty are going to ask me why I took so many pictures of Tanner and Troy together.?? Very simple reason.?? Tanner is old enough to serve as a prop for keeping baby happy and Tori and Ty are not quite as helpful.?? 🙂

*******************************

Me to Troy:?? Hey Troy!?? Do you need some Troy time with Mama?

Ty:?? Why don’t you have some Troy time in my room?

Five minutes later, it was everybody time because Tori and Tanner had to jump in on the play party too.

***************************

Yesterday I was watching Ty play James Bond 007 Xbox Demo in his room.?? He loves an audience.

Me:?? Can I give that a try?

Ty:?? You want to do this?

Me:?? I probably will just die but let me try it and you can tell me what to do.

He gives brief instructions faster than I can possibly follow.?? I start the game and he laughs and laughs at everything I do.?? Then he starts getting a bit stressed.

Ty:?? Can I just help you out with this part?

Me:?? Ok.

Ty:?? I am just going to get you over the bridge.

Ty:?? Well I just need to get you past this truck.?? It has explosives and you might die.

Ty:?? ….and the tower.

Ty:?? I’ll just get you to where I stopped.?? At the end.

Translation:?? You stink at this mom.?? How about I just finish up this game for you because I really don’t enjoy being the audience for your miserable performance.

Ty:?? Maybe Daddy could show you how to do this.

And that was my favorite line of all.
