Today my 3 of 5 is six. I can't believe he's been around for 6 years. So, in honor of his 6th birthday, 6 things about him you may or may not know.
6. He can work just as well on 3 hrs of sleep as 12. Although he rarely gets 12, he's the 1st one awake, and the last one asleep.
5. He has no volume control. It's always turned to loud. We had his hearing checked when he was 2, because he didn't talk yet, and he always yelled. Everything checked out okay.
4. He got to come home from the hospital for 3 days, then had to go back. He had such severe reflux that it was interfering with his ability to breathe. This caused him to not be able to eat to get rid of the bili rubin and he turned jaundice. His jaundice level was 24, they usually do a transfusion at 25.
3. He LOVED 4 of 5 when we had her. If she would cry, he would say, "go get my baby, she's crying" Or "my baby is hungry" one day I had her in my arms and my church books in her car seat, and he freaked out "where's my baby"?
2. He sucked his thumb until he was 3. I told him a week before his 3rd birthday that big boys didn't suck there thumb, and I would help him when he was ready to stop. That night he asked me to put a band aid on his thumb, and he hasn't done it since.
1. The majority of his friends are girls. When I was trying to put together his party for tonight, all he could give me was girls names. I had to pry 4 boy names out of him. As a matter of fact, i have had a few moms tell me their daughters have told them they want to marry him.
I could go on, there are tons of stories, but I won't. Happy Birthday.
Seems after talking to a few moms, 20th of Feb was a big baby day. I know 3 other moms with boys born on the same day with the same name!
