Theodore: 5 1/2 Years Old

11.26.2017

Big boy,

You are 5 1/2 today.  Getting so old and grown up.  We can't believe how fast you're growing up.  Makes us sad and happy all at the same time.  Sad you're getting big and the baby years are behind us, but happy that you're doing so well and learning so much.

You soak everything up like a sponge.  Learning letters and numbers, sounds, shapes, colors, learning to read and a whole lot more.  You are in Pre-K this year at the same school as last year and doing really well.  Definitely getting ready for Kindergarten next fall.  Your teachers are fantastic and teaching you so much then you come home from school and do your "homework" which includes memory verses!

Getting much better behaviorally.  Learning boundaries and how to deal with your mood and attitude changes.  We learned your iron level was extremely low this past summer.  It's slowly coming up, but makes it hard when you don't like to eat much of anything.  Mommy's been making you smoothies with yummy, healthy foods that help with your iron intake.  It'll get better over time buddy.

You still absolutely love your sister and want to be around her right when she gets home from school.

You weigh 38 lbs and are 43" tall

Currently in size 5t tops and 5t pants.  Size 11/12 shoes

Your favorite foods are cheese, fruit, veggie straws, goldfish, granola bars, cereal, mac and cheese and anything with sugar!
Going to sleep at night around 7pm and waking up around 8am.

Some of your favorite activities are Pre-K, coloring, making paper airplanes or any craft, watching your favorite TV shows, going to TeamKid on Wednesdays, gymnastics, swimming, climbing the rock wall at Tennova and playing with your sister and friends.

Taking gymnastics this fall and loving it.  You're doing so well!

You continuously do anything for anyone.  Such a servant's heart at such a young age.  We love you buddy!
