Brian - Age 6

My baby boy Brian has turned six years old!  I cannot believe it!  He's six, and getting so big, and he's already lost one of his front top teeth, and where did the time go?  It feels like he got so old this last year.  He has done a lot of growing and changing.  Oh how I love this boy!

I love being around Brian.  He is easy to talk to and he always has interesting questions and insights.  Most of the time he has a great attitude about everything.

He has been loving Kindergarten.  He is always happy to go to school.  He loves seeing his friends and I think he loves the structure at school.   He seems to thrive on the routine of it all.  He is starting to get the reading down and enjoys math and art the most.

Brian is currently taking piano lessons and gymnastics.  He is doing well with both.  He loves being in the boys class at the gym.  He says he is so strong and so fast.

At home Brian enjoys putting together Lego kits, playing outside and playing with Timmy.  Those boys get pretty wild sometimes. He has gotten really good on his bike and can ride for a long time without getting tired.

Brian is almost 44 inches tall and he weighs 36.5 pounds.  He is still in the 25% for height and 5% for weight.  I feel like he is growing like a weed!

He has lost 3 teeth on the bottom, but only two have grown in.  Brian has a small mouth like me.  I don't know how all those new teeth are going to fit in that mouth of his.  He lost one of his top teeth a few days after his birthday and the remaining front top is loose and has now moved over almost into the middle of the gap.  It is amazing how fast his smile has changed! He certainly is growing up.
