A Year in Review

Okay, so since the title of this is a year in review, I went back through a year's worth of pictures to find a few to post. Wow, what a job!!! We must have at least a thousand pictures of Zachary....we haven't gone back through them and deleted the bad ones yet. That's a big job for another day. Anyways, here's a brief look at how Zachary has grown over the last year.

Brand-spanking new!!!

Here's our first picture as a family of 3. We look pretty good for having gone without sleep for 36 hours by this point. (It was taken the evening after Zachary was born.)

Awwwww, isn't he a cutie!

He looks a bit like a deer in the headlights. He was in the swing when this was taken.

I believe he was one month old in this picture.

This Zachary and his cousin, Jude, after his baby shower. He wasn't too impressed by this point!

"I am a South African lion."

What a cute outfit!!

Zachary and his grandpa having a snooze together.

He really started to like bathtime by the summer.


Zachary and his too big hat checking out how the roofing is going in May.

Helping Daddy with his birthday cupcakes.

6 months old at a family reunion in August in Ontario. He had his first plane ride on this trip. Definitely a different experience flying with children.


He likes to stick all kinds of things in his mouth - and then turns and looks at you as if to say "hehehe, aren't I funny!"

Family pictures in October. Zachary is 8 months old here.

All the Tycholaz men together over Thanksgiving weekend.

Zachary and his buddy, Ethan, all dressed up for hallowean. We just went out for supper, but it was fun to dress them up anyways. They looked so cute!

Zachary trying out his big boy carseat. Hard to believe his is old enough for one of these.

And that takes us up to Christmas. I will try to post pictures of both Christmas and his first birthday party soon. It is so hard to believe that he is a year old already. He really is a blessing from God.
