Catching up

My little buddy Treyven! He turns the big three tomorrow. I can't believe it has been that long. Treyven is my rainbow baby and he has my heart. I love him so much and he has really changed my heart. He is the sweetest thing, I can tell that he has a very large Spirit inside his little body. My heart swells and I get tears in my eyes when I think about Treyven. I just know in my heart and have known since before he was born that he has a very special mission and purpose for his life and that Heavenly Father has assigned him some pretty amazing things to do in his life. My heart always is on edge because I wonder what that will bring and pray that heartache is not included. I haven't felt this way about my other children, for some reason I just know that there is something big awaiting him. I will need to remember these feelings so when times are tuff that I can look at the big picture to help get thru the little things. Treyven is not potty trained and has no interest in becoming potty trained. He is behind on his speech. But he is so sweet. He is my little buddy and I live coming home from work and getting my hugs and kisses. He likes to pick out his own clothes and still likes to we at his cowboy boots. Lately he has taken a big interest in Toy Story and especially Buzz Lightyear. He has a Lego buzz, woody and jessy and he picks up the buzz and says buzz Lightyear to the rescue, so cute! He throws little tantrums if he doesn't get his way right away. He likes chicken nuggets, bananas, yogurt, cheese, plain bread, fruit snacks, cookies, water and pasta. But his tastes are always changing. 

Mom bought him a water gun from Walmart.

Moms phone is locked so that the only thing that the boys can do on the phone is take pictures. Most of the time there is 50 or so pictures of black but once in a while you get an actual color picture.

Thumb sucking

It's so funny I have become the mom I said I would never be, I pinned a sock to his shirt so he couldn't suck his thumb. He was so devastated that he couldn't suck his thumb. And after one day it hasn't happened again.

Sunday

We don't have church till 1 on Sundays so some mornings we find interesting ways to entertain ourselves and pass time. Treyven found one of our old blind wands and was using it as a sword. He was told he couldn't hit anyone with it so he just chased his brother around. He kept saying "stay back", it was so cute. Then tonight he was rough housing with mom and brother and he asked "did I hurt you"? He's a funny little guy!

Sayings

Treyven has been talking so much more each day and he is talking in complete sentences. The other day he was signing "let it go, let it go". He says: stop bothering me, are you ok, I love you and lots of other things that I need to write down when he says them. He loves to wear his shoes or boots too. He will put on his shoes and boots without socks And walk around. He tries to wear them to bed. He is such a big boy and most of the time so very good.

Green

We think Treyven's favorite color is green. Lately we have started letting Treyven pick what he wears and when picking a shirt he always seems to pick a green one. This morning there was only one green shirt hanging in the closet and it was Treyvens new St. Patrick day shirt. He picked that one and then Dad said "no not that one" so Treyven went and got one of his dirty green shirts that he wanted to wear. So Treyven wore his St. Patricks day shirt today :) It just interesting to see the kids individual personalities come out. We also think that Treyven will be right handed. He does the majority of things with his right hand. That makes mom sad she wanted one left handed kid and so far that doesn't seem to be the case. Treyven used to say "you're welcome" so very clear no he says "you're wel mm mmmm" its funny. We have no idea why all of the sudden he changed the way he says it. He's such a smart little boy!

Potty training

We are working hard to potty train Treyven. We need him to be potty trained before David starts his job at the post office. He went potty twice in the toilet today. He is such a big boy. He is using more sentences. I am looking into pre schools for Treyven to start later this year. I need to check into sports as well. I can't wait for him to be potty trained so I no longer have to buy diapers for two boys.
