Drew // 4th Birthday


Happy Birthday my little turkey! Can't believe you're already 4 but am so proud of who you've turned into. Although the question of 'why' is asked 945 times a day and you are super OCD, your brains and personality is top notch. You are constantly figuring out how things work and I look forward to this year where we really begin to read and write more. You will always be my baby and I love you so very very much. Here are some tidbits about you right now!

Height: 41.25 inches (75%)
Weight: 40 lbs (80%)
Shoe size: 11
Clothes: Mostly 4T with some 3T still fitting


You still sleep great at night starting the bedtime routine around 7:30 and being asleep by 8:30 or 9. You generally wake up on the weekends around 8 and I have to wake you around 7:15 during the week to get ready for school. We still limit your juice intake and keep you mostly drinking water and milk and you are still a good eater with a growing sweet tooth. You can write your name very well and are getting good at coloring in the lines and writing other letters/words. You are working on reading 3 and 4 letter words and can understand a lot of words that we spell. And lastly, you're still in a nighttime pullup, but we plan to work on overnight potty training this year. If we could only get you to not chug water before bed it would be easier! I'm not your preferred parent right now, but I continue to work on that as much as I can and wish you knew how deeply I love you.


And now, for the interview segment that I started last year with Drew. Here are his answers for 2015 along with a few new questions! 

Favorite color: Pink (daddy asked this 3 different times to make sure)
Favorite stuffed animal: Nala the lion
Best friend: Hank
Girlfriend: Lucy
Favorite food: Ice cream
What do you want to be when you grow up: Batman
What makes you happy: Going down slides
Where is your favorite place to go: Chick Fil A
Who is your favorite super hero: Batman
Favorite show/cartoon: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Favorite sport: Soccer


HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE MAN!!

  7. Happy 4th birthday, Drew! He has the best smile. I look how you worded the "preferred parent." That is a good way to say it - you know I struggle with this with C.

  9. It might be the hormones, but I'm bawling. How is he FOUR?!
    His little Q&A is hilarious - the Chic Fil A really started the waterworks (don't ask, I don't know either).
    Happiest of Birthdays to my favorite four year old!!
