Happy 6th Birthday to my sweet little boy, Andrew!!! I truly can't believe we are here again! I hate that you are growing up so fast but I love watching you grow into the person that God made you to be! This has been such a big year for you. You started Kindergarten! This was such a fun time for you and such a hard time for me! You are doing amazing at school and it makes me so proud. You are such an outgoing kid. You are such a great big brother to Lucas and Eli too! They look up to you so much already. You love to play Legos!! You would probably build all day. Some of your creations are so impressive! You also like reading, coloring, football, ninja turtles, basketball, playing games, and spending time with friends.
We had your annual check up at the Dr and you are doing great!!! You were 43.4 lbs (34th%) and 45 inches (40th%) tall. I think you are about to hit a growth spurt because you have really picked up on eating suddenly! You are a pretty good eater but still a little picky. You will usually try things if we ask you but if you don't like it you get a little dramatic. You are still my emotional kid! You are such a loving kid! You are very good at thinking about others and helping people out. You can also easily get your feelings hurt just like your Mama!! You will make such an amazing husband one day!! Your sense of humor is great too! You are always trying to make a joke or trying to be cool but in a funny kind of way. You are one special kid!!
We are going to move you into your own room here in the next couple weeks. I know you like sharing with Lucas but you are super excited to have your own space. I am looking forward to seeing how you want to decorate it. Lucas will be sad to lose his buddy but you will just be right across the hall. Right now every morning you guys come out of your room at the same time and hold hands all the way to Mommy and Daddy's room. Your bond is seriously amazing!!! Lucas is always looking forward to when you get home from school!!
This year you wanted to have your birthday party at Sky Zone. The kids all had such a blast jumping around and playing dodge ball. We decided on a Star Wars cake because you have a new love for Star Wars with the new movie coming out. Mommy and Daddy are not into Star Wars so you have learned about all this at school. We need to go see the movie!! It was so fun watching you have such a great time with all your friends!! I am so thankful for the great group of kids that came out to celebrate with us.
On Andrew's actual birthday we went out to dinner. He picked one of his favorite restaurants, Olive Garden! My mom and Justin came to town that night. Andrew loves it when Justin comes to play. He definitely had a great day!! Our elf, Buddy, even brought Andrew a small gift for his birthday!
