All about Treyson


My goodness, I can't believe we're having to post about Treyson being 2 already! Time has just flown for this silly little boy! Treyson is such a blessing to us. He's the life of the party, the class clown, and we love him for that! Here's a post dedicated to everything he's doing now so that Mommy and Dadoo don't forget!
~Treyson, you go to bed around 7:30, and we wake you at 7 to go to Mrs. Amber's. If it's not a school day, you'll usually sleep until 8:00.
~You are not interested in learning how to use a big boy cup. You are just content with a sippy, so we'll try later!
~You are a milk-a-holic! You would drink it all day long if we'd let you! You also chug down water. . . although, we don't let you drink quite as much these days because things have changed up a bit recently....
~.....because you are now potty trained! You started the first week in August, and only had a handful of accidents. You wear Thomas the Tank engine underwear and some plain white ones too (we've taught you to say you're wearing "whitey tighteys"!). Most of the time you sit on the potty to go tee-tee and boo-boos, but you like to stand to tee-tee at Mrs. Amber's and when we're outside and don't have time to make it in! We're SO proud of you for how EASY you were to potty train!!
~You still wear a diaper at night. You wake up with a dry diaper about 50% of the time. Once you've had a dry diaper for 7 nights in a row, we'll let you wear your big boy underwear at night.
~You still sleep in your crib, although with all of this talk about wearing underwear at night, we're about to change that into a toddler bed so that you can get to the potty!!
~You are NOT a picky eater. You'll eat just about everything we set down in front of you. You love spaghetti, chicken bok-bok, veggies, fruit loops, fruit snacks, and M&M's the best!
~You are a cuddler just like sissy. When it's bedtime, we give you your blanket and you lay down on our shoulder and tuck your arms under your belly to "nuzzle in". We then give kisses and hugs, and you put yourself to sleep. All lights out, door cracked.
~You love listening to Anniston say prayers. We switch off praying in you and sissy's rooms. We all kneel together, and Anniston leads us. You sit there and smile with your hands folded.


~You are big! You tower above most kids your age, and lots that are older than you too!
~You are a non-stop talker. We understand almost everything you say. Your words are so clear now, so it's fun to have conversations with you.
~You are very curious....always asking questions.
~Your personality is so fun. You are always singing, talking, laughing, and trying to do things to make Mommy laugh. In fact, your babysitter Mrs. Amber always remarks on how quiet her house is when you're not there!
~You are doing remarkably better on following directions: ie: hold hands while in the parking lot, do not walk into the street, put your finger on the tire, etc. Before we would say it but still have to struggle to correct you. Persistance has paid off though! You listen so well! (The finger on the tire thing is something we started when Anniston was 20 months to prepare her for T's arrival. She would put her finger on the tire while I would open the car door before I loaded her up. The idea was to teach her that you stay right next to Mommy and touch the tire for when I would have later had Treyson to load first. I'm not saying this to say that we're planning for another child....just explaining the purpose!)
~You are a fish! You love anything involving water. Running through sprinklers, swimming in the pool, lake, jumping off boat, tubing, jumping off Nanny and PawPaw's diving board, going down their slide, water fountains (you're obsessed with these, and I personally think they're kind of yuck!).
~You play well with your sister for the most part. you know how to annoy her, and she doesn't like that. You also have a tendency to hit her if things don't go your way....you ARE getting put into time-out for that!
~You love sports! You love to play baseball in the back yard with Anniston and Dadoo. In fact, Daddo has you and sissy hitting off of pitched balls versus the tee. Your hand-eye coordination is amazing! Dadoo says that's going to pay off when you play sports!
~You are a lover! You give such big hugs and kisses. Mommy was drying her hair the other day, and you kept mumbling something over and over. Mommy leaned down to hear you say it, and realized that you were saying, "Mommy so pretty". Melt.Mommy's.Heart!
~You love to "clean". You have a vaccum and broom that you constantly have out. You also will go get a rag out of the drawer if I spill something in the kitchen. Next up, cleaning toilets and starting the washing machine. Your future wife is going to LOVE me!!

Treyson,

We are so blessed to have you in our lives. You are nothing short of fun, energetic, silly, and sweet all wrapped up into one smiling, beautiful baby boy! We love playing with you and getting you to get cracked up with that precious little giggle of yours. We love you more than anything, and are so proud to be your parents!

Love, Mommy and Dadoo
