Tyson

Today our cute little Tyson turned into a big 5 year old!
Since I started blogging when he was a little over two and I am using my blog as my scrapbook/journal I thought I would put some of my favorite picts of Tyson from his 5 years...
Tyson Stanley born 11/26/2005
8lbs 9oz
20 1/2inches long

What a sweet little face! Tyson was a sweet little guy, but he had reflux and spit up almost everything he ate, so he wanted to be held all the time. (Which I didn't mind since he was my first except when I needed to get something done!) I remember crying to Brandon asking him to make the bed before he left for work because Tyson wouldn't let me put him down long enough to make it! I wasn't good at just letting him cry!

Our announcement/Christmas card picture. All of us in cute little track jackets! Ahhh!
Tyson was such a funny little sleeper! He would do this quite often, I guess he needed it darker to sleep well!He also did crazy things like arching his back all the time! Silly kid!
I just love this cute little baldy!


Tyson didn't start packing on the pounds until about 9 months or so. Being a first time Mom and trying to nurse a baby that spit everything up and I didn't know I wasn't producing enough and with the reflux he was starving. Once the Dr. figured that out we put Tyson on formula and he finally plumped right up!

I love to swaddle my babies! (I probably do it longer than most people, but I love it and my kids love it!)
Tyson has always been the happiest kid I know! Still to this day he is so darn happy all the time!
He is so darn handsome too! This wasn't his blessing day, but this is what he wore for his blessing!
He has loved sugar from the beginning! I think he could live off of sugar and butter and be one happy camper! (Not that I feed him straight sugar or butter!!!)
He has always been my binky baby and I loved that too! I just think it is too cute!

Again the happiest kid ever!
I love this pict! He just looks so cute and styling! Air Jordan shoes, track suit and cool plaid hat! I think Dad was fishing with Papa on this day and it was just too cold for me and my little buddy!

Tyson has always been my little running buddy! When we first moved into our house I started running again and he quite often feel asleep so I would push him in the front door and hurry and shower before he woke up! (At least this would happen once he was closer to a year old...around 4 or 5 months he would always seem to scream on the last road in the neighborhood so I would sprint home so no one would think I was a horrible parent letting my baby scream so I could run!)
Tyson has always been our TV kid! Here he is watching one of his favorite movies at that time...Monsters Inc.!

Tyson loves to help do ANYTHING! He really thought carving pumpkins was awesome! And still does to this day! What kid doesn't!?!

Proud of his pumpkins!
Tyson's first Halloween! Our Star Wars family!

So, we had this pine tree on the side of our house, but whoever planted it there was never planning on having a fence or a gate, but we did so one year for Christmas we cut it down and used it as our Christmas tree! It looked smaller outside than it was inside and I didn't think about how big those branches were on that kind of pine tree, but it worked and still looked really good! And what a fun story...we cut down our own tree and didn't have to travel very far!
This pict is from my cell phone (so are some others that aren't that clear!) Tyson is sitting in his Uncle Cam's fire truck! I love it because he is so stiff trying to keep the headphones on! He thought it was so awesome!
Helping with dinner! He loved it when he was tall enough to stand on the stool and see over the counter!After a run we would go and feed the ducks in the neighborhood! The ponds are fun for that reason, but the mosquitoes are another story!
Coming home from Colorado this is how we found Tyson! The king is resting!
Tyson loves to be outside! Here he is throwing rocks into the water and decided he needed to get a little closer for the good rocks!At the Zoo looking thru the turtle shell! I just love that little face and chubby legs!
Wearing Mom's sports bra and underwear! Clean of course!


Wearing Dad's Utah jacket! With matching binky too!
Our last Christmas before we became 4!
This is as close to getting himself undressed as Tyson got! (Which I look back on and love when I hear other Mom's talking about not being able to keep clothes on their kids!)

What kid doesn't want to blow bubbles in their milk!

I just love how cute he is in this picture! We are feeding the ducks at the other neighborhood pond!
Tyson has always loved having his own style!
Who doesn't want to wear brand new underpants on their head! (Now up to date...the in between stuff I have on prior blogs!)Lily didn't want to miss out on the fun either!
Tyson is so creative and has such the imagination! Here is his clown face! (A little scary, but creative!)

At the dentist the other day he picked a mustache for his prize. I asked him to get dressed the next morning and he came out as Tyson the man!
Happy 5th birthday big guy! We love you! And Lily loves her "Buddy!"
I added some cute video's of Tyson. If you are able to watch the roll over one (it was from my phone) warning: turn the volume down... Brandon and I get quite excited!!
