My Sweet Lukey Bear,
You are 4 years old...such a big boy! We could not be more proud of you! You have a sweet, kind, gentle spirit. You always include others and freely share with everyone. You are silly...so, so silly and love to make us laugh. You are quite shy and do not enjoy being the center of attention (unless it's at home. Today you put on a dance show for Cade and me - even played your own music on the keyboard and danced on the side - told us where to sit and made us watch. So funny!).
To celebrate you we had a birthday breakfast, went to Build-A-Bear, went on a GJ and Randall Pop funded shopping spree at Toys-R-Us, had a family birthday party, and went to an Atlanta Braves game (which ended with your first concert - MC Hammer...LOL). Happy Birthday Little Man!
Here's a little more about you at 4 years old:
- Not quite sure about weight and height - I'll check back in after your check-up.
- You wear size 4T clothes and size 11 1/2 in shoes.
- You are a very picky eater and don't seem to need as much sleep as I think you should need. You wake up before everyone else and getting you to nap is a struggle. You go to bed around 7:30/7:45. Every night after I put you in the bed you call me back to your room and ask me for two things: 1) a sip of water 2) to sing you a song
- Your favorite foods include: milk, waffles, pancakes, cuties, applesauce pouches, pasta, garlic bread, fish. Anything sweet.
- You are still quite imaginative and enjoy playing independently - usually super heroes, complete with sound effects, but you ask mommy to play with you all day long. You also love to play ocean animals. You can entertain yourself with just about anything! You also really like to play board games and you love to play your Leappad on Sundays on the way to church.
- You still really love your giraffe blankie and sleep with him every night.
- You scream and cry when you don't get your way and you don't really like being told what to do - seems like you want to do things your way. :) We're working on it!
- You are still crazy smart and learn things so incredibly quickly. You started reading early level books and learned how to count to 100 by ones and tens a few months ago. A couple weeks ago you said, "Mommy, today is the tenth day of school...that means we have 90 more days until the 100th day of school." I remain in awe of your amazing brain!
- You have to be one of the most loved little boys on the "pwanet"! We love you Lukey Bear!
