Never a Dull Moment: Tyler is 5!!!!!

5!!! I can not believe our little man is five fingers old! Where on earth did the time go?!?! Tyler has grown so much, yet stayed the same in so many ways. He continues to be our early riser, up by 6 most days. He still doesn't eat meat. He is an old soul trapped in a little boy's body. Tyler continues to live each day to the fullest. He is constantly smiling, laughing, singing or talking. He still is the best cuddle bug, and will gladly give hugs or hold hands...even sneak in a kiss or two. =)

He loves to learn! Both Scott and I can't wait for kindergarten with how much he will be learning--he participated in safety town this summer and talked our ear off everyday with his new knowledge. His vocabulary is expanding, and will surprise us using it correctly. He is such a reader, and is really taking off with reading on his own! Everything right now appears to be an adventure to him, and he soaks it all up! The kid asks questions and makes connections all day long. He might be scared of new things, but once he tries, he jumps right in! We can't imagine what goes on in his head, but it always makes Scott and I smile---I swear that is why he is a horrible sleeper, his mind is constantly thinking!

Tyler loves his friends and play dates!The kid is such a social butterfly and ladies man. =) I know he had a hard time with the move in regards to his friends, so I have been trying my best to keep those relationships. I know once school starts he will make new ones! Tyler is very outgoing, and tends to make friends easily. He did have an amazing monster truck party with his closest 5 year old friends for his birthday! They were able to drive around Safety Town on power wheel jeeps. He had a blast, and it was definitely fun to watch!
