Preschool SUCKS!!!!

Yep- if Tyson could talk that is what he would be telling me- he is not digging this whole preschool thing. Now before I go on he has only been there four times so I hope in time he will actually like going. He also just started with a TSS(support specialist) who goes to school with him so the poor little guy has had a lot of new things thrown to him. Right now he cries the entire time he is at school and if he isn't crying he is sleeping-(from exhaustion of crying)



So in the afternoons you bet Tyson is sandwiched between Kenzie and I getting all the loving he deserves!!!!

Preschool Has Begun!!!

Yesterday was Kenzie's first day of Preschool. She is in the 4yr old class and goes mon-thur for 2 1/2 hours. She's been going here since she was 2yrs old so she was very excited to start.




Today was Tyson's first day! He is going to the same school that Kenzie attends, a private preschool. He goes tues and thurs for 2 1/2 hours. Needless to say I was nervous and excited at the same time.





When I picked him up they said he did well. He cried but not the whole time- most of the children cry for about the first month! The teacher also told me he fell asleep on her for almost 30 min. He was probably so worked up from crying he exhausted himself! I did see red dots on his face which means he was crying pretty hard. But he has already charmed his one teacher with his big brown eyes! Hopefully each time will get better for him! Mommy will have no problem getting used to some free time!

Who Misses Who More?

This week Alina and Courtney started school- ALL DAY!!!!! A little- well a lot quieter in our household. Yesterday Alina went straight to a friends's house afterschool and when she got home she asked if Tyson could stay up a little later because she hadn't seen him for a whole 11 hours. Looks like they both have to get used to this back to school thing-

Fun Day With My Girls

Alina and her Aunt Kelly are off on a road trip to Washington DC so I took advantage of one child being gone and took Courtney and Kenzie along with our friends to Hands On House Museum for the Day.



Say cheese Kenzie!

Fake smiles...


Can you see now Kenzie???


ABSOLUTELY love this picture of these beautiful kids and beautiful Hilary







It was a fun relaxing day- relaxing because Tyson was at home....sounds mean right? But for those of you who see him in action totally understand. Thanks Dad for watching Tyson and letting me spend time with my girls!

Dinner Date For Tyson

Even though I still get very sad at times it does help to meet and talk to people who are going through the same situation- especially people who you can relate to and pretty much feel the same way you do-

We got to have a playdate and dinner date with these two lovely ladies last night- Josie recently turned three and I have been able to keep in touch with her mom and she has been helping me with questions I have about schooling since both our kids will be going to preschool soon-



These two hit it off


I can't even begin to say enough wonderful things about Angie- She is both of these kids occupational therapist and she has become a very good friend to me- so despite my sad moments I must remember the good things that also come out of this journey!


Late night for Buddy!

It's here!!!!

I have become good friends with Julie who I met through blogging- Our sons were born within a month of each other and they both rock that extra chromosome like it's nobody's business! It's been great to talk to her about our awesome boys and I know if we didn't live sooooo far away from each other we'd hang out a lot.
We got a package from her and her kids today....





Tyson got an ID bracelet just like his buddy Jake has now- Tyson loves to run....away from me so this is perfect!




He was really trying to get it off



Julie is very crafty and I have no idea how she has any time to do all of her neat projects- my wine glass is "my mommy time glass"



The girls were thanking her daughter Gracie for their cute gift bags...no pictures of them because they were opened within 2 seconds!



Thank you Julie, Gracie and Jake- It made our day!

9 Years Old!

Alina turns 9 on Monday so this weekend she had a roller skating sleepover party. Yes that is two sleepovers in a week- Courtney and Alina's birthdays are ten days apart. Alina's big birthday gift is going to be her first concert in a couple of weeks- Selena Gomez- she is more than excited! So she had two friends come over for dinner and then off to roller skate


CHEERS!!!! With the cream soda!


Nothing beats a DQ ice cream cake


Hard to believe my first born is 9




Doing the limbo




The family ended tonight with dinner- my girls love going to the Chinese Buffet and for a family of six....buffets are the way to go! Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter Alina Julia-
