Wes turns 4!

W's birthday was the first thing for us to celebrate at our new house.  Since it was a Wednesday, B & R had to go to work and school, but they did wish W a HB before leaving and we let him open his gift from the family.  We got W a TMNT digital watch and he LOVES it.  That's the only thing he asked for and we found one that's perfect for him.  Later that morning, we face-timed with others and he opened gifts from the grandparents and AC.   He was very excited about his special day and did not get tired of hearing "happy birthday".  We had a normal day that did not include MOPs (although it was a Wednesday), so we played games and rode scooters in the cul-de-sac.  We had to pick up R from school then we went to the YMCA before Bible study at church.  At the Y, Ms. A (our favorite) gave W balloons and a Spiderman bubble toy.  The balloons were a big hit because he's never received balloons for a birthday before.  In fact, we've never gotten any of our kids balloons, except for maybe R.  You know, that first kid gets all the good stuff.  Poor Ell...haha. At Bible study, we were just having a prayer meeting with dinner and all the kids to help get to know each other's families.  I ordered TMNT cupcakes from Wal-Mart and brought those for dessert.  Dinner was yummy and I enjoyed the kids being with us. 

 I took W to the pediatrician for his 4 year wellness check and he's very proportional said the doctor.  He's around 38 lbs and 37 inches which puts him in the 70th percentile for both weight and height.  He's a little above average, but the same percentage.  We knew he wasn't small, so it's good to know that he's proportional.  He got his school shots and he took them like a champ.  He only cried on the last one and he received four of them.  I think 3 out of 4 is pretty good.  He was so good at the doctor during his vision and hearing test and he showed how smart he is too.  While Dr. Turner was talking to me, her tablet shut off.  When she swiped it and put her code in, W watched her and he was able to repeat her code back to her.  "Gotta watch this boy" she said, "he's a smart one".  I already know that Dr. Turner.  He's very smart!
