Tyler's Birthday
My precious baby turned 5 on November 6th. I can not believe he is not a toddler anymore but officially of boy! :( He woke up that morning very excited to open his presents but was quickly disappointed as we would only let him open one and then the remainder when he got home from Pre-K at 12:30. Isabella was also disappointed when she was asking for HER presents and we had to break the news to her that is wasn't her birthday. Poor baby girl!
When I picked him up from school, it was so sweet .... he seemed to expect there to be a party waiting for him here at the house! He asked me in the minute ride from school to home if all his friends were going to be at the house. He was very confused when I told him no! I reminded him that Daddy was home since he took the day off to be with Tyler but Tyler still seemed a bit disappointed that there was not an elaborate surprise party waiting for him! Here are a few shots of opening presents:








Tyler and Isabella's Birthday Party
Tyler and Isabella had a double birthday party on November 8th. The theme was Bugs and Butterflies - bugs for the boys and butterflies for the girls. Tyler's classmates were invited to "Tyler's Party" and all mutual friends were invited to "Isabella's Party" so that no one felt like they needed to bring 2 presents or anything like that. Poor Tyler - he must have been set on a surprise party because when he woke up that morning and saw the guest room door closed, he expected all his friends to be hiding in there with presents for him! So he started his day disappointed!
The party went well - I thought anyways! There was an earthworm dig set up outside in a wheelbarrow, painting of butterflies, ladybugs, and bees set up on the house, and a table to make a bug home for the live ladybugs I was sending home with the kids (yes, the moms LOVED me!!). I thought the kids would have loved the painting most of all but you should have seen those kids go after the earthworms! The ladybug homes quickly turned into earthworm homes as the kids decided they wanted to take earthworms home too!!! Like I said, the moms loved me!!!! Here are a few pictures from the party:



I got Tyler and Isabella their own cupcake so they each had their own something to blow out:


Isabella was very happy because Becky got her the purple princess scooter that she has been talking about for the past several months and another friend got her a Belle Princess dress. Here are some pictures of how Isabella spent the rest of her day:



So my intentions were to also include Tyler's class Thanksgiving Feast that was held today, but I will have to do it later tonight or tomorrow. Wish me luck!

How FUN!
I would have been happy to take all the ladybugs and earthworms home with me. I need them in my garden!
