Reid Turns 5!!!

I know I'm a month late in posting this, but things have been really crazy lately. Josh has been traveling for work, and when he does I don't have Internet access on the laptop. Plus we just moved...again!!! So I'm taking a break from unpacking and finally posting this!

FIVE!!!! I keep asking the boys to stop growing and getting older, but they don't listen.

As I began writing all the things we love about Reidy Reid, I re-read what I wrote a year ago when he turned four. Funny, I can copy and paste the sentiments because everything is still the same. All About Reid

He's still a stinker, he's SUPER smart (his teacher tells me this on a weekly basis) and he still LOVES and admires his big brother. He gets so bored when he's at home with me and once Connor is home, he becomes Connor's shadow. I love that they are so close!!

We had his 5 year check up on April 1, and here are his stats:

Height: 3'11.75" (off the charts)

Weight: 47lb 12oz (88th %)

It's still predicted for him to be 6'6" (within 2") by the time he is 18! He is not only the tallest of all the Pre-K, but also the Kindergartners at his school!! He asked me if the reason he's the only one in Pre-K who gets home readers was because he was the tallest!

I made cupcakes for his class and let him pick the colors. Blue cupcake, yellow icing and a green peep!

We ate at Lupe Tortillas for his bday dinner. He wanted to go somewhere where the waiters would sing to him! He said, "I want to go to a Chinese place so they will put a big hat on me (sombrero) and sing to me." HA!
