Jace-e-boy turns 4

 
4 years ago today I was 41 weeks + 1 day and was going for my induction. Was at the hospital by 8:30 am, after starting antibiotics I finally started the drip at 1030ish. My water broke on it's own while walking the halls around 430 or 5, and after a difficult shoulder dystocia an 8 lb 15 oz red head boy came out.
 
 Days old
 
I regret not getting baby photos done professionally.
 
Jace was a cute baby from day 1. I'm probably bias but he was cute!
 
1 year old Jace

2 year old Jace
 
3 year old Jace
 
 4 year old Jace
Look how handsome this boy is!!!
 
Jace is 4
weighs: 32 LB 4 oz
Height: 3 ft 4 in
 
Favorite movie: Planes Fire and Rescue
Favorite Color: Blue, yellow, and orange
Favorite thing at preschool: Play with friends and snack time. (This boy is so obsessed with the word Snack and having a snack... that I hate the word snack!)
Best friend: Noah and Cali
Favorite Food: Fruit- watermelon
Favorite Dinner: Steak, chicken pot pot pie (yes they say pot pot twice), spaghetti
Favorite Dessert: Donut holes
Also these are his favorite socks... sometimes he'll wear them 4-5 days in a row if I don't catch him.
 
He's kept us on our toes and has helped me to be a better person... or worse depending on the day. What I've come to realize parenting Jace is every kid needs love and attention in their own way. Jace is sweet and loving. He's smarter than he lets up. He can count actually pretty high without us teaching him and knows all his letters well. He struggles with writing because he's left handed and holding a pen hasn't come naturally.  But he'll spell out all his letters with veggie fries. I'm glad he's picked it up pretty good because I wasn't sure if he was interested.
 
He loves snacks as mentioned before and loves to know how everything works. He asks lots of questions. He loves Duplo and Lego.  He actually reminds me a lot of my brother and his personality.
 
We loves him lots! Happy Birthday Jace!

Sunbeams!

Just going through my photos and I forgot to document Jace started sunbeams!!! It was time. He turns 4 this February. He did say the first couple weeks primary is long! But his teachers have been good and he hasn't said that the last couple weeks. Our kids are growing up!

Update on Penny well she goes to nursery and the last two times went without crying BUT has to be held. Must be my girls, they were more timid. Not much I can do but keep taking her... Plus I don't feel bad about 1 leaving her upset or 2 her being needy for leaders. I've been there as a worker in nursery. There's always a few timid ones... They just need love, and really I need a couple months no kids on my lap for 2 hrs at church 😊
