Someday

 Kaiden is getting so tall.  I am sure he will pass me by the end of the year.

He has been coming up to me and saying "Someday I will be taller than you."  So I started saying to him "Someday I will be shorter than you."

Gavin is 6

Gavin is six today.  He had a birthday party over the weekend complete with a bouncy house and friends to play with.

A Pokeman themed birthday cake and decorations.  New toys to play with.
 

After opening all the fun toys, the pajamas we got him were very disappointing.  I think we can bring his smile back when we go the pool soon for his birthday outing with us.

Rylan is 3!

Rylan turned three today.  We celebrated with cake and ice cream.  When we got there, he was playing with balloons.

He had just caught a balloon here and threw it back to Tito.

His cake was a Disney Cars cake.  All he wanted was to play with the cars.  It was a fight to get him to stay for pictures and blow out the candle.

 I think Gavin liked his Thomas the Train toys as much as Rylan did.

First Day of School 2022

Two and a half weeks ago school started for these three - Kaiden's in 8th grade, Trevin's in 5th grade and Gavin's in 1st grade.

Kindergarten Graduation

I realized I did post pictures of Gavin's graduation from kindergarten last May.

Better late than never!

 

Summer Part 3

RTD suspended fares on all rides for the month of August, so we took the train downtown with the boys.  

The train was not moving when these pictures were taken.

We ate a picnic lunch and took the shuttle down the mall to the Capital.
 

I didn't mean to cut Kaiden's head off - I was concentrating on getting the One Mile step in the picture.

Rylan did not want to be in any of the pictures.  

But I caught him in this one.

The boys in the rotunda with the President's pictures.  I told them the last time I was here Kennedy picture was the last one on the wall.

And of course, we had to stop at the water feature at Union Station.  Rylan kept trying to fill his hands with water and throw it on Tito and me.  When that didn't work, he kept telling Kaiden to get Gram.

The other trip the boys wanted was to go to the museum.  When they say the museum, they mean The Museum of Science and Nature.  The special exhibit was Mazes and Brain Games.  They could build mazes and there were many mazes already set up.  Some used math skills to solve, some were easy enough for Rylan and some were more advanced.  Kaiden and Trevin had fun seeing who could make it through the mazes fastest.  Rylan kept running into the large maze and the older boys had to go in and find him.

 Of course, we had to visit the Space exhibit, look at the Animal Dioramas, find some of the hidden gnomes, look at Dinosaurs and visit the Discovery Zone - one of their favorite.

We had a picnic and played in the water feature and then went home.  I'm not sure about them, but I was tired.
