Jr...
Jr. My 4yr old. The oldest of the bunch. Hardworking. Stubborn. Loving. Halarious. All boy. Creative. Protective. Teacher. Mommas boy. These are a few of the many words I can use to describe my boy Jr.
Jr is 4yrs and 3mo old. He goes to preschool 2 days a week and LOVES it. He has made so many new friends and learned so much. He knows how to write his name and is learning how to tie his shoe. We practiced for a while today and it wont be long till he wont need my help anymore. He loves to play candyland and color and practice writing on his dry earse board. If he could work all day long he would. If Matthew is ever in the garage working or outside he is right there with him. He loves to help me do the dishes and laundry. His favorite chore is putting a new trash bag in.
He is the best big brother. With Colton he loves to teach him things. He helps him when colton needs it and they love to play cars and monster trucks together. But, they also fight really well together. They have at least 5 wrestling matches a day. They are both all boy. It keeps things interesting around here! Its funny bc sometimes I forget that other boys dont have a brother they play around with all the time and they can get a bit overwhelmed by Jr and Colton and how wild they are together. But I wouldnt have it any other way. They are boys who like to have fun! With Tinsley he loves to help her by picking her up and bringing her toys or her juice. He always calls her his sweet princess!!! He likes to feed her and help her get her shoes on. He is such a big help with her. And, Im pretty sure she thinks hes pretty awesome! He loves to feed Westin and hold him. The other day I had to tear Westin out of Jrs arms bc he didnt want to let him go so I could feed him. It was so funny! He loves his baby Westin.
He works out with me everyday. His favorite thing is to run on the treadmill. He falls asleep in his room but ends up inbetween me and matthew everynight. He is a good eater most of the time and not to picky. He gets himself dressed everyday. These days its bluejeans and a cowboy shirt complete with his cowboy boots. My brother in law, Bobby, said Jr has "swag". I agree and it kinda scares me for when he is a little older. He loves the ladies and they love him. He is such a flirt and once you laugh or smile at him, he keeps going and going and going. He is funny bc he likes to be the center of attention but if we get onto him about something infront of others he gets very very embarrassed and hides in my arms. Everytime we are in the car he wants the music up loud and he gives everyone a "air" instraument to play. his is usually the guitar and colton the drums and me or matthew the piano. he know pretty much every chris tomlin song by heart and it the sweetest sound in the world to hear him sing.
This is such a fun age. He is asking so many questions and wanting to know details about everything. Its soo fun to see him learning! Today he wanted vasaline and I asked him what for and he told me "for his straight line"...meaning, the space between his nose and lip! ha!

what a GREAT post!! Thank you so much for so many things, one of which is for loving Matthew and the kiddos so MUCH!!! I agree with Bobby that Jr has a swag, but he also has his "man-on-a-mission" walk when he is working:) Cracks me up. Thanks again.
