Austin is now 4 years old and I can hardly believe it. He is growing up so quickly. I know he is only 4, but is seems like just yesterday that he took his first steps. :) He had his 4 year well visit a few days ago and weighed 35.7 lbs. (48-51%). He was 42.5 inches (90th%). I cannot remember if I put his 3 year appt. down so thought I would quick add that at 3 he weighed 33.1 lbs (65%) and was 39.8 inches (93%). For his 4th b-day we decided to have a party at the fire station with his friends. He had a blast!!
He got his haircut today at a salon for the first time and did really well. All the other times his daddy has cut his hair. :) It's much cheaper that way. lol. He kept asking questions and looking around and was also very quiet for part of the time. The lady cutting his hair said, " he is a thinker, huh? I think he will be one intelligent guy" Who knows, but I do know that he is a thinker and very curious. He warms up to new situations, places slowly, but when around people he knows really well he is quite talkative and outgoing. :) Such a blessing. He loves his little bro very much. They have been wrestling a lot lately which is so much fun to watch.
Just some cute things said by him today:
We were riding in the car and he said, "Lukey, do you believe in Jesus and love Him with all your heart?" Luke said, "yes" and Austin said, " good job Lukey". :) lol.
He then started telling a story that sounded like this.
It is ok if little kids make bad choices sometimes. God will still love us. But we need to say sorry to Him and then ask for forgiveness. Adam and Eve made bad choices but still believed in God and are probably up in Heaven right now. But satan was in Heaven but is not anymore. He became a snake...but god will take care of that someday. Daddy, did you hear my story?" He is def. listening. :)
He also said, Mommy, your hair is pretty...you have long hair because you are a girl, but not all girls have long hair. Some of them have short hair, but they are still girls. How sweet is he and funny. ;)
