Getting big

Lately Christian has been a booger. BUT...he's also been showing how grown up he's becoming. I feel as if the booger/grown up behavior is common in boys this age. He's trying out new waters and seeing what rules still apply and don't. But here are a couple pictures of him being a big boy lately.

He was playing with his LEGOS in the living room the other day while I was doing laundry, cleaning, typical mommy work. When he brought this to me and I was so proud of him. He followed the directions perfectly and build an great plane (with a gun on top mind you).

Ashlee had to get a picture with brother, she was so proud of him too
Christian's creation!
A couple weekends ago, I needed to mow the grass. I asked if Christian wanted to learn how to mow...and with great excited he said "YES!". He did a great job, still needed help because of the weight of the mower, but he was so big. He came up to me later and said that his friends (who are older) were jealous because their mom's never let them mow the grass. I felt pretty cool too!

  1. Christian and Ashlee are growing up so fast. They are both excelling far faster than your average 8 year old boy and 5 year old girl! :) Of course they have exceptional parents!!!!! [And aunts and uncles and grandparents and a loving, gracious God.] You are truly an amazing Mom Steph! I love you and I am so proud of you!
    Love, Mom
