Andrew Anecdotes ~ Happy 5th Birthday!

WOW! I can;t believe my baby is 5!!!!! Where has the time gone. It seems like just yesterday he was born and I was holding this beautiful little baby in my arms. Sniff, sniff. He has just really started to grow up this past year. He is starting to write so much better and loves to add things up. He has grown a ton too. He has grown 4.25 inches and gained 13 lbs in a YEAR! Holy Cow!

He is still the same silly kid. The new thing he like to say is "I'm serious". He is the best big brother too. He really likes that jobs and loves and takes care of the twins. I just love to watch it. He has also started playing tee ball. He has done so well! He even got the first game ball of the year. I just love my little guy. We also went to register him for kindergarten a couple of weeks back and he has already made a new friend. He and this little girl were just talking away. I am still on the fence as weather to be happy or sad about Kinder. On the one hand we are both ready for it, and it will be nice to be down to 2 kids at home. Yet, once he goes then he will officially be a big boy and not my baby anymore. I will miss spending time with him and I will miss my helper.

He had a great birthday party too. This year we did it at Pump It Up and he loved it. He asked for a Blizzard cake from DQ this year so after the main party we had another little party at home with that cake and we opened presents. One of his favorite gifts was a Wii game where you shoot dinosaurs. There is a picture below that will give you an idea as to how much he loves it.

Stats:
Weight: 52 lbs 3 oz - 95% which is up from 73%
Height: 45.5 inches - 91% which is up from 71%



Everyone get Matthew!!!
