Did you see that? That was time flying by, I sneezed and this little munchkin is suddenly a real live boy!
I can't put into words how much I LOVE this human. Every day he amazes me. He is caring beyond words (almost TOO caring), he loves to just be with me "mommy, I love hanging out with you.", me too, bud, me too.
When he was born I was so curious on what type of little boy he would be, I had no clue how he would act or play or love. His most favorite thing to do is play games with Daddy, but he also loves riding his bike around the block, or playing in the pool out back with his friends. He sure loves his friends!
Since his birthday last year he has started a new school, moved into a new house, got a new brother and sister, and his mom started working full time again. What. A. Trooper. He is one of the best big brother's I have ever seen. He hugs and loves so fully, you know, when he's not shooting the babies in the face with rubber darts :)
He knows the line between good and bad and likes to tip toe past it from time to time. He's ultra sensetive and going through a stage where he can easily get worked up (it is a stage, right?), but for the most part he is so cuddly and kind, it kinda breaks my heart to know the world will change that eventually.
He just created an imaginary friend named Tunnel, and likes to pretend to be Mario and Luigi. Playing with swords might be the best thing ever, and he's never upside down, he's "up and lie down".
He sleeps with Teddy every night and has dreams he likes to talk about in the morning. One of his favorite dreams is when mommy said he could sleep in their room for the night. His favorite color is red, and he will tell you this is his favorite color any chance he gets "cuz red is my favorite". His best friends are Lizzy and Dominic. He loves Power Puff girls and airheads candy. He'll eat apples all day every day if he could, and literally gags on vegetables. Vanilla is his favorite ice cream and he only eats the breadsticks when we order pizza.
At night we have what is called "chill time", where he comes up to our room and we watch netflix and "cuddle", the amount that he loves this is adorable. I could just watch netflix with him all night, he seems to geniunely appreciate the time with me, and I, obviously, can't get enough of it.
He loves making his siblings laugh and will often sit in the car and make funny faces and sounds just to get them to giggle. It's one of my favorite sounds in the world. Talking about giggles, he still has the most geniune little boy laugh, I can't get enough of it.
Every day I feel lucky to be this sweet boy's mother. Happy birthday my love, I can't wait to for our next chill time!
Peace, love and temper tantrums about cereal,
Brigid
