Mother's Day & Big Bro time

May turned out to be an interesting month.  First was Mother's Day, and Tyler and Dad took me out for breakfast, planted some plants in our porch barrel, and then brought me flowers!  Two days later, I was put on a semi-bed rest at 34 weeks.  Dad and Tyler were troopers taking care of me and luckily I was able to work from home and not take PTO.  Thankfully, they let me up and going after only 2 weeks.  We found some time throughout the month to do some fun things with Tyler before he is no longer an only child!  This included tickets to see Sesame Street Live - Elmo at the arena, a visit to a fire station, and lots of baseball playing outside!     
 
Dad & Ty planting the barrel.

Looks like a true farmer, doesn't he?

Flowers from my little boy!

Hanging with Uncle Kyle at Elmo!

This was his face the entire 1st half - just stared in a trance, singing just a bit!
 
Sitting in an ambulance, taking it all in!

We missed getting to see inside the fire truck due to a fire call, but even better, we got a free (fitted!) bike helmet and got to play on the outside of another one. 
Finally got to get out the new baseball tee we got from the Hensley's for Christmas (thank you!).  Here Dad is showing Tyler (decked out in both Yankees & Cardinals, we know!) how to hit off the tee. 

He figured it out quickly!

Tyler got to take a "Big Brother" class where he learned about safe toys for babies, the importance of washing hands, and got a tour of the hospital.  Oddly enough, they showed an empty delivery room (I think the family rooms were all full!) and it was actually the very room Tyler had been born in!  Above, he was chosen in the class to try on the full operating garb!
