Christopher turns 9!


Today was Christopher's 9th Birthday. We are sure glad to have him in our family. He is such a kind hearted little guy. He is a peacemaker and tries really hard to be nice. I know all his brothers and Heidi look up to him and like to be around him. Christopher also likes to do his own thing. Sometimes in the summer I can't find him and he's out in the sandbox all by himself playing. He talks pretty quiet, I have to listen really hard sometimes to hear him. He is starting to eat more. He had killer taco's tonight and he ate 4!!! Maybe he will get a little fat or muscle on his skinny little bones. He really likes watching Tom and Jerry. He just laughs and laughs out loud. He takes things in stride pretty good, he laughs at things easily. We are so grateful for Christopher for all the love and happiness he brings into our family. He's a great kid!
Grandma and Grandpa came over for killer taco's, cake and icecream
Presents! He didn't even know what he wanted so I hope he likes these magnetic things. They looked really cool.

Christopher and Brandon are best friends. They really like to do things together.

It also happened to be Christopher's stay up night. (each kid gets to stay up 1/2 hour later than all the others) He wanted to play checkers with Dad. He won a couple games.

Oh Happy Birthday Christopher, he definitely is such a sweet little boy! What a party! I was thinking of him all day yesterday. I am impressed with the eating skills! That is such a great idea to let one kid stay up a half hour later each night. I love it.
