Brian Turns 9!


Our Brian is 9 years old!  He is one great kid!  He works really hard at school and wants to be smart and get good grades.  He works so hard at school that he is usually exhausted and done working when he gets home.  He still needs lots of sleep and does better going to bed early and waking up early.  He stopped sleeping with his blankie this year but likes sleeping with his BYU blanket and snake he got for his birthday.  He still has the white noise on at night too.  Brian weighs 51 lbs and is over 4 feet tall.  He wears glasses and has braces and expanders on the top and bottom teeth.  He enjoys running, soccer and swimming.  At home he loves to play with Legos and to read.  He reads a lot and I often have to say he can't read until he gets his other stuff done.  I have been reading the Harry Potter books to him and Timmy and Brian is reading them through again after us.  He also just picked up the Candy Shop Wars and says he really likes it.  He enjoys science and math and both seem to come naturally to him.  He does not enjoy cleaning his room.  It is a constant mess and takes him most of each Saturday to clean up because he moves so slowly while cleaning.  Brian practices the piano in the morning and cello after homework in the evening.  He enjoys cub scouts and primary.  He also enjoys playing a boat racing game and minecraft on his tablet when he gets the opportunity.  He likes to carve sticks and owns I think 5 different pocket knives now.  They all have a different purpose.  He still collects rocks and wants to add fossils to that collection.  Brian is kind and social, but not too loud.  He is a pretty emotional guy like his mom and needs to work on not letting those emotions get out of control. In most ways he is very mature for his age. We love him so so much!  Happy nine year buddy!
