Mommy's Boys

 It is a little too early to tell with Baine if he will be a mama's boys, or daddy's boy, but when Beau and Baine are together, they always flock to me :)  I love having them at my feet or on my hip (even on days when I am exhausted).  They are the light of my life, and I cannot imagine what life would be like if I didn't have my boys :)

Day at the Park With Daddy

I have been extremely busy this year at school with coaching and being on multiple committees.  Joe has truly been Mr. Mom for the past few months.  He has been so wonderful with getting the kids ready in the mornings, picking Beau up for preschool, and getting the kids fed/bathed/and in bed on nights when I have to work late. 

Lunch date at the park after preschool

The other week, Joe took the boys to the park for their Daddy/Sons Date Day.  I am bummed I missed it, but the boys had so much fun together.  Beau is truly such a good big brother to Baine.  He helped push him on the swings, and wanted to always play next to Baine at the playground.  Goodness I hope he loves Baine this much forever :)

Beau's Birthday: Part II

Of course we had our own celebration of Beau's birthday at home.  Nana also spoiled Beau on his birthday by treating him to lunch at his favorite, McDonald's.  We had Billy, Ari and Emmy over for Beau's b-day night and Papa and She-She wanted to come over as well.  You are so loved, Beau Pax!  I hope you had a great birthday this year, and we promise to always make them special for you.

Billy teaching Beau how to use his new Bow and Arrow---thanks Billy! ;)

LOVES to wear his new Hulk mask and gloves yelling "Hulk Smash!"

We had Austin and the kids over after Beau's birthday part, and I loved getting the 1 on 1 time with the kiddos!

Haha I just LOVE his school birthday picture :)

Beau's Birthday and Party

Beau wanted to invite his friends to his birthday this year, and he loves the playground at the Nazarene church.  So that is exactly what he got! :)  The party was "really cool" as Beau likes to say.  Beau and his friends all had a great time!  Happy Birthday, Beau-man!

 

Baine wanted to  cheer Beau up since he was pouting about not being able to open presents yet :)

Beau: 4 Years

Beau turned 4 last week, and I just do not know how that is possible.  I was just on maternity leave with him it seems like. 

Beau, you are the light of my life! Your personality is growing everyday, and I am so proud of the little boy you are becoming.  You are SO GOOD at using your manners. You are finally going to bed and staying in bed (no more party time for you!). You absolutely love your baby brother, and you are such a good helper with him.

Lately, your newest thing is telling us "what 4 year olds can do".  "Mommy 4 year olds know how to write their name and go to bed".  So you are writing your name by yourself, you know how to count past 20, you can recognize all of your primary numbers, you can recognize the letters in your first and last name, you love to dance, you love basketball right now, and you are still obsessed with elephants and now the Avengers.

When you grow up: you want to be a super hero
Favorite color: blue
Favorite sport: basketball (you love to play PIG with Daddy every night before bed)
Favorite book: The Lion King
Favorite Movie: Transformers
Favorite TV Show: Backyardigans
Favorite  Song: Uptown Funk
Best Friends: Banx, Bond, Baine, Rhett, Karysn, Grant, Brody, Kinley, Ayden
Favorite toy: Robots or Avenger toys
Favorite stuffed animal: "Baby" your elephant

Beau you are extremely tall, literally off the charts for height, but you are my string bean, Dutch boy :)  You love to eat "blue granola bars", which are chocolate  chip bars in a blue wrapper.  You LOVE to help cook in the kitchen and will only eat supper if you get to help cook.  You always look forward to going to Ms Richelle's at school and to learn. I love to watch you play independently and also with your brother.  We love you so much Beau Paxton Pierson.  You make us so proud!

1 Year Here: where has time gone?!
