* ANDREW

Our little guy, born January 12th of 2011, was exactly what I had prayed for in a child. He was a happy, calm baby that really wasn't too much of a handful and was a good sleeper from the start. As a toddler he became full of personality and loved cracking himself up. This, in turn, led to a lot of laughter in our household which makes this one happy momma. He was a mellow kid who prefers to sit back and take in the world, but will narrate and discuss the entire situation. Right before he turned 4 we went through a rough few months where he was extremely trying. We turned the corner when he was around 4.5 and since then our little man has turned into quite the stud who still likes to talk nonstop. Now, as a kid he's very intelligent and loves learning. He was a master at Legos for all of his childhood, a rule follower and problem solver, and loves STEM activities so so much. He loves playing sports but reading is his jam and he can often be found with a book in hand! Oh, and you won't see him referred to as 'Andrew' too much on this blog.... that's being saved for when he's 13 and breaks our 70" flat screen TV. :)

- His middle name is his paternal grandfather's name
- Drew had his first tooth before 4 months, had 16 by 16 months, and had all teeth at 20 months. 

- He's a lefty just like his daddy.

- At just 19 months he became a serial nail biter. Ugh. Thankfully this stopped around 4 years of age.

- He was tongue tied when he was born (google it) and always had a bit of lip tie.
- He wore 18 month clothes at 9 months. And still wore them at 20 months.
- He is our particular child who sticks to routine and prefers that over change. #ocdbaby
- He likes water chestnuts and mushrooms.... gross!
- Even at 5 years old he could still nap like a champ if needed
