Happy Birthday Tyler!!!

7 years ago on August 22nd we welcome into the world a sweet precious little boy that would complete our family. His due date was 8/30 but his brothers were 2 weeks over due and our doctor told us that there was a possibility that he would be too and since they were so big that he would probably be bigger (9lb 3oz on 1 and the other was 9lbs 13oz) So he suggested that we had induce him early and that we could pick when. All we knew we wanted it on a Thursday so Eric would not have to take off alot of time. We didn't tell anyone what we were doing but Eric's parents and that was only cause they were keeping the older 2 for us. So we headed off to the hospital at 6:30am and got set up in our room. Since this was my third I got put in front of others to have the good drugs to take away the pain everything going great. I had a great and easy delivery couple of pushes and he was out.. But he was not crying, they had to get the NICU in there to suck out all the junk out of his lungs. We had a great doctor that was smiling at us and telling us the whole time that he was ok. I could see the nervous look on Eric as I was trying to hold it together for him.. Within the hour he was all check out and he was healthy and was the sweetest spitty imagine of his daddy.. He came in weighing in at 8lbs 1oz and 19 1/2 inches long.. He was the smallest of the 3 but now he is the biggest of the 3 turning 7 year today and weighing 76 solid lbs. We had names picked out for a girl and if a boy we were going to name Jacob Levi but at the time Ryan play on a baseball team w/ 6 Jake or Jacob so the day we found out he was a he and not a she I cry cause I felt Eric wanted a girl and also cause I didn't want to name him Jake and Levi didn't sound right w/ the other 2 names.. So after assuring me having a boy was ok and we could change the name I was ok.lol... Tyler was actually a name I thought of for the other 2 but didn't and Eric thought it was a cool name so we were going to name him Tyler Jacob at first and call him TJ but we decided that him and his daddy needed the same middle name and we name him Tyler Eric Glover.



Tyler has been such a sweet spirited child in the beginning I wonder about that consider he would not sleep unless you were holding him or on his stomach which was a no-no, he stayed sicked w/ respiratory problems up until he was 2 which only 1 doctor out of our group said he would since we had that panic attack in the delivery room all the others said it was not related maybe that is why we only want to see her. He has had tube put in his ears his abnoize (?) taken out and believe it or not he still has his tonsils after all the strep thoart he has had. But since he was 2 1/2 he has been great w/ not much sickness at all.



I did get spend a year at home with him when he was 3 and I was truly thankful for that.I miss those Tyler mommy days now especially since he has grown into being a daddy boy through and through. He looks like his daddy and acts like him too... He is a very special little boys to us. His best friend beside his daddy is his brother Stephen which by the way didn't want him at first cause he was a boy and not a girl so he would not really have much to do with him but on most days his order is daddy and mommy and Stephen has to fight for 2nd. Ryan is also a good big brother to him but "Bo" gets down on his level plays with him. Stephen did tell me one time that he was going to make sure that Tyler was 10 worst than him and sometimes I think he is doing that, they have alot of similar esp an hour before bed him is his hyper time and then with in 10 mins he is out like a light, his humor, confidence, the ability to get under Ryan skin they are 2 peas in a pod sometimes... Watch out when they get together...



Tyler loves God/Jesus you can't say 1 without the other, his sweet thang that he just adores is Macyi he met last year in his K-5 class (which another thing we did hold him back a year cause of birthday being the week school started back one of the best things we ever did). If you want to see him really smile with the dimples and squint eyes just say Macyi, he loves karate, football and soccer and is excited to to play baseball next year, he is friends with everyone, but is shy until he gets his comfort level and once that happens he can be loud and all boy. His daddy says he takes after me w/ all the talking he does. He is solid when he was 1 his daycare nick name him Tank cause they would build blocks and he would knock them over, he is not scare of most things except for spiders, don't think he likes sheet on the bed cause he takes them off all the time, loves to build things w/ his daddy, playing basketball w/ Bo, play the playstation w/ Ryan and curl up w/ mommy. He didn't want a brother or sister until last year and now we don't want our kids to be 7 yrs apart again but he prays for a baby sister. He is smart and loves to learn, you might not think he is listening but he is, can be hardheaded (that his daddy) only gets ill if tired (another daddy thing). Funny, handsome,outgoing and caring.. We love you little man and you have made our family complete and entertaining for the last 7 year. Love you lil man!!!!!!!
