Four & A Half Years Old

I have seen this done on other blogs and I think it's a great way to remember what your kids were doing at certain ages. Bradley was four and a half years old last month so I guess we'll start there!

Bradley I cannot believe you are 4 1/2! You are 42" tall and you weigh 40 pounds now. You are in the 63rd percentile for your weight and 57th for your height. It seemed like you were stuck weighing in the mid-30's for almost a year so this is pretty big stuff! You are wearing mostly 4T's in clothes and a 9 or 10 in shoes depending on the brand.

For some reason we have a very hard time getting you to look AT the camera
when taking pictures of you! You are good to go until its
time to smile and then you look away. 

You had a visit with your surgeon last month and she was SO pleased with how good your head looks! She released you to do any sports or activities that you want and we don't go back for another year. Needless to say we were very pleased too! 

You are a very talkative little guy and you amaze us and everyone around you with your observations and big words you use. You can count to 100 with little to no help, you know all of your letters and can draw some of them, mainly the ones in your name! You are always wanting to figure out what letter something starts with and sounding it out to yourself. You are usually right! You are so observant and notice when anything is new or different. You are ALL boy, I just recently bought you a shirt that says "Daddy's Little Firecracker" and it fits you perfectly! You are a live wire ALL the time and certainly add character to our family. You complete our family in ways we never thought possible and we love you so much!!

Happy Half-Birthday to our sweet miracle boy!!
