Whitten's 4 year stats!

No wonder my sweet boy has been waking up in the middle of the night all year telling me his legs hurt!  My little (big) Whitt grew 4 inches and gained 6 lbs!  WOW!  We got to look at his growth chart and the line for his height literally shoots straight up!

Josh's wreck

Our lives could've been changed forever.  I just wanted to make sure this was written down so that we will never forget that Josh was protected by our heavenly father on this certain day.  I can't even begin to comprehend our lives without him.  I will never forget this day.  The fact that he walked away with nothing more than just a few nasty bruises (and well, a forever messed up back) is nothing short of a miracle.

First Day of School 2014

We finally have a Kindergartner!!!!!!!  We have decided to go the public school route (for now) and so far so good!  Coop loved his first week of school!  I can't wait to see what the future holds for our outgoing, spunky, talkative, a little bit lazy-but oh so smart big kindergartner!

Cooper has no desire to be an actual banker.  He is just obsessed with money right now and I gave him the idea because he would get to play with money all day!  

And then it was Whitt's turn!  This is his first year to go to preschool!  He will be going to First Baptist...and we pretty much live there anyway, so he's super familiar and wasn't the least bit nervous!  He was just excited to go to school like  his big brother!

Whitt's 3 year birthday pics!

What in the world!  I certainly haven't kept up with this blog very well lately, but I was looking for Whitt's 3 year old birthday update...and I couldn't find it! : (

So...8 months late!  I'm sorry, sweet Whitt!  Life has been crazy!  

8 months later, some things are different, but many things are still the same!  You are still my precious Whitt that just lights up a room with your dimples!  You are so silly...and you know it!  I'm pretty sure you are our comedian in training!  You love to have your back scratched and kissed.  But getting a kiss from you on the lips is difficult!  You are stingy with your lovin', but when you are in the mood....oh my goodness!  I could just eat you up!  You absolutely love your brother!  You both can play for hours together!  Not to say that you never get upset with each other, but for the most part, it's sweetness and lots of fun and giggles!  So, what are you up to...

• You can cross your eyes like nobody's business
• Your best friend is Matthew!
• You are just now, at 3 yrs and 8, months really enjoying playing with kids you don't know.  You used to be super timid when others were around, but now you will initiate play and conversation with other kids
• You got glasses right after your 3rd birthday.  You have astigmatism and are far sighted!  Sorry...it runs in the family!  But glasses totally fit your personality
• A lot of people say you look just like your daddy...and you do!  But our baby pictures look a lot a like!
• You LOVE Umi-Zoomi!  It's your all time favorite and has been for about a year!You are SO smart!  You have about 50 sight words and are able to read different word families...cat, sat, mat, pat.....

You are your own person!  You are strong and independent!  You are so beautiful....or as you would say, no I'm not...I'm handsome!  You give me such joy and every time I look at you, you always put a smile on my face! I would love nothing more than for you to stay 3 years old forever....but I can't wait to see who you will grow up to be!
