Drew got to open some presents the morning of his actual birthday and was SO excited for his new bike!!! He is still learning to ride it and says it is "too high" since it is so much higher than his tricycle, but he will get it!
He got a year subscription to an animal magazine from Poppie and Grammy. He is so possessive of it and loves to flip through the pages of what he claims as "my book".
We had a crazy afternoon. Drew wanted to take the bus to school so I had to drive over to school and take cookies for this class. He prefers cookies over cupcakes any day. That night Bry and I both had commitments with church, but I made sure to squeeze in grabbing some "Fry Store" (In-n-Out) for Drew. It is his favorite meal even though it only consists of fries and a shake for him.
He had his five year old check the next day and did great. He has gained weight and looks good. I made an insane decision to get all the kids flu shots at the same time...by myself...that was fun. Carter went first and cried and screamed like crazy which made Maylee cry, but Drew was next and he cried, but not has hard...then Maylee and her crying only lasted until I picked her up again. I was sweating by the end, but they did great and didn't cry for took long. All was well with the world again once the boys got to pick something from the treasure box!
I just love this little man SO much. Yes, he has a lot of energy, loves to ask questions, pushes my buttons, bugs his brother, and makes messes...but he is such a sweet, gentle, fun kid. He loves to makes friends where we go. He adores his little sister and is so gentle with her. He is learning to share and play with his little brother. He loves to snuggle on the couch. He loves to tell "knock knock" jokes even though it is always "pumpkin" at the door. He sings twinkle twinkle little star in the most adorable way possible. He stills loves me to sing to him every night and won't let me leave without a kiss and a hug. He loves his "monkey" Curious George stuffed animal that he has to sleep with. He still takes naps for me 50% of the time which is a beautiful thing when all three children nap together.
We love Andrew so much and are so blessed to have him a part of our eternal family. I am not ready for him to keep getting bigger - next year is kindergarten (insert nervous sigh)!
Happy Birthday Drewbie Doo!
