Smart, Sweet, and Sad.

Titan has a new thing.

Every time my husband leaves for work or school, Titan grabs my husbands shoes, passes it to him, and says "here you go" (he says this whenever he passes something to us). Then, he follows daddy to the door thinking he's going to go with him and he says (go.. go). When my husband leaves and closes the door after saying I love you and buh-bye, Titan starts crying. :( Then he runs to the couch to open the blinds and watch his daddy drive away. How sad and sweet is that?

Tayven is 5 years old!

This blog entry is late because he turned 5 last Monday, September 6th!

The day of his birthday I made his cake. I messed it up because I didn't know that the tube of frosting I bought didn't come with a decorating tip. The writing came out super thick. Tayven said it was still nice and he liked it. :) Overall, his birthday was nothing big but he liked his gift and we celebrated it together.

For his present, mommy and daddy bought him the Iron Man life size helmet he wanted. 

Here he is trying it on:

Here he is with his nerf gun, lol (Trenton had frosting on his nose) :P

He was going to celebrate at school the next day, so we had to do his birthday poster. 

He drew his family

and himself

I took cupcakes for his class and he brought home a gift bag that had crayons, a marker, a name tag, a lollipop, and some Dots candy. 

Tayven's first day of Preschool

Yesterday was Tayven's first day of school. He was so excited, but mommy was so sad. I couldn't believe my BABY was going to school. Never mind the fact that it is only two days a week for 2.5 hours-- he is still not at home with me!

He was such a big boy. He made me so sad because he didn't want to hold my hand nor kiss me bye! He was "embarrassed." :( Isn't he too young to start being like that? Geez. I teared up walking out of the school.

I decided to drive him to school on his first day. The bus was running behind so we arrived before the other kids.  Another girl came right after Tay did and so we were all standing in the room. Although we arrived first one of the teacher's aides took the little girl to take her backpack to her cubby.  Then another aide asked Tay his name then took him to his cubby. The first aide that took the girl came back and said "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know that was Tayven! He's so .. Tall!" hehe. After that I left.

Here are some pictures:

This is him before we left the house. (Trenton had to jump in...that HAM!)

This is the preschool side of the school.

This is the most of the school.

This is him in front of the entrance into the school.

This is blurry but it's right outside of his classroom. 

This is his classroom. To the right of this there is a reading/stage area and also a dress-up/play kitchen area. Toward the back where Tay is, there is a computer mat area and to the right is the cubbies, bathroom, and door to their playground.

He rode the bus home from school, so when the bus got here we all went outside to meet him. Trenton ran up to him yelling "Tayvennnnn!" and gave him a big hug. It was so cute!! :) Then of course mommy and daddy hounded him with questions. I wanted to know EVERYTHING they did. He was annoyed with all the questions lol. Anyway, Trenton hugged him again so I snapped a pic.. 

Sweet right? Well after this Trenton punched Tayven and they started wrestling.. typical boys & brothers! hehe

He really enjoyed his day and couldn't wait to go back today!
