The impossible

It seems impossible to try to summarize my journey into motherhood up to this point, as I said I wanted to do. So, I am just going to start from today and do my best to document Tylers' moments. He is 4 months old today - August 22nd!! Happy birthday! I know that this next month will be an exciting one. We are getting a little play area ready. When he takes off, he is going to need it!!
