- You've said Ma Ma, Da Da, hey and bye
- You've figured out how to blow bubbles and sputter/spit
- Sadly, you are a breast milk/formula combo baby. Not sad because you're having formula, but sad because you're growing too fast.
- You'll eat anything I offer you now. Doesn't matter what it is. Lord knows I'm praying you'll be an eater like Zachary.
- You've eaten the following big people foods and love them: yeast rolls, chicken (itty bitty pieces of CFA nuggets and BBQ chicken), hush puppies, baked beans, quesadillas, french toast and pizza. You didn't turn any of them away.

residual of Andrew and Zachary's chewing spots taste yummy. Blech.
- You're a tummy sleeper and have been since week 8.
- You don't sit still.
- You sleep with your lovie that we call Lolly. You wrap your arms around her and go night night.
- Like your brothers, you sleep to the Ocean Waves and I think it calms you.
- I've had people tell me you look like me, but honestly, I don't know who you look like.
- You think Maggie (the dog) is funny. You giggle at her all the time. You also think her dog bowls are for your enjoyment.
- You got your first hair trim this month. You need another now. You're looking kinda shaggy.
Andrew decided he wants to play soccer this year. I'm not sure there are enough hours in the day accommodate everything that needs to be done, but we sure try. Our church has a soccer team, which we're thankful for. I also resigned myself to the fact that Andrew may not really want to play soccer and thus I made a small donation (soccer fee) to our church. I'm ok with that. Thankfully, Andrew seems to be enjoying soccer this time around.
I know I'm going backwards in posts, but at least I'm making the effort, right?
Zachary's class had an Easter party and egg hunt on the last day before spring break. The kids appeared to have a great time. Andrew was with me and they even let him in on the fun. See for yourself.
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. What a beautiful day to celebrate the hope and promises of Jesus' resurrection.
For the first time in 7 years we finally took a family picture at church. We enjoyed having Nonnie with us at church on Sunday and then having Easter lunch with her afterwards. She says she's lost her touch, but I'm here to tell you she hasn't.
Happy Resurrection Day!
Happy Birthday, Andrew! Your dad and I still cannot believe you are 7 years old. Where has the time gone? You are such a fantastic, young man with such a sweet heart and huge personality. Your bright eyes, freckles and beautiful smile make my heart do flip flops. You are turning into the perfect gentleman, which makes me so stinkin' proud.
I love you to the moon and back!Mom
