I suppose Dusty's creative juices had been stirring for awhile because about a month ago, he headed out to the back patio, pulled out all of his power tools, and make this rocking horse for Tyson. Talk about a sweet ride for a baby! He got the generic measurements off the internet and then added his own flavor to it. I really like it. It's pretty tall, but that means that Tyson will be able to ride it for a few years. We haven't stained it or added the hair and bridle yet, we'll do that in the summertime, but Tyson likes it the way it is. He is really starting to rock out on it, usually giving me a heart attack. But he hasn't launched off of it yet!
Just a side note. Tyson is so curious about everything that is happening outside. If he ever hears anything that is loud, usually a truck or piece of equipment, he runs to the nearest window to check it out. Must be a boy thing. :)

Wow, what a talented husband and daddy you both have been blessed with. That is a great rocking horse!
Way to go Dusty.
I think it's a kid thing. Lily always pops her head up and says in a deep voice, "WHOAHHH!" Late at night when it's all quiet we can hear the trains too....that's quite exciting for all of us.
Maybe come Christmas Dusty could rig the present-schedule so that you guys have us and he could make us a horse :) You don't even have to stain/paint it. We'd probably go with pink or rainbow or something anyway!
And I love all your little blog labels. Isnt HTML fun? Is it Michelle's font? She'll be excited. You still want to mail me yours? I'm more than willing.
That is awesome! I love the look of natural wood!
Look at that little man! Tyson is lookin' huge! He is growing up that is for sure.
That rocking horse is awesome-- Dusty you are a skilled man! love you guys!
