Makoy, our big boy

It is a rare day that I have enough pictures of Makoy to do an entire post! For some reason he's been letting me snap the occasional picture here and there. I am going to take advantage of it! He is growing like a weed, and I'm having a hard time with it. He graduated from preschool on the 19th of May. He will be off to kindergarten in the fall. WHAT?! I am going to sob that day. He also is training wheel free. I couldn't help him try last year with my big belly. We were taking a walk one cold day last month and he said he wanted to try it. His first attempt he rode down to the end of the street. That was that and the training wheels came off. There are moments I look at him and can not believe how big he is. He is HILARIOUS and keeps me on my toes. A while ago he said "Mom, have you or Dad ever hit rock bottom?" Say what?? He still asks me and I asked him if he knew what he was asking. "Yes mom, have you guys ever had a really hard time with something?" Not sure why he wants to know or how he knows how to use that saying correctly, but it cracked me up. He also is quite the ladies man. I was outside listening to him chat with some neighbor girls a few weeks ago. He said "check out what I can do, ladies" and then proceeded to do a wheelie on his bike. Then they oohed and awwed and he was beaming and kept doing it. Oh boy! He is so smart and loves to learn. We checked out 30 books from the library a few weeks ago and had them all read in a week. He LOVES to be read to and can read a few words himself. He says he is ready for kindergarten and not scared. I wish I felt the same! He is playing tee ball this summer and having a blast. He loves all sports, loves to dance, help cook and play in the dirt and mud. Most of all though, he LOVES his sister, and she loves him. He is the best big brother. I love this boy so much!



Day of graduation

You can see my attempt to get a picture at graduation went well


This is the best I could get with his teachers, Mistie and Holly

His favorite thing lately is to build a "fort" in a laundry basket
He has discovered that Channing's crib is comfy

Fake sleeping...with gardening gloves on. He wears those things constantly.
