Andrew is 8!!

Well, my Mad-Eye Moody turned 8! I honestly feel like I was just walking on the treadmill the day before he was born. I can vividly remember his "birth" day like it was yesterday. 

He is a rubiks cube king these days...

After a requested M&M pancake breakfast, we headed out to look for his birthday request: a new kitten!

 And we found her! He wanted a black or white kitten and the SPCA had ONE kitten. Our new kitty he named Coco.

Then, a  flag football game on this boys birthday! What could be better! His coach knew and made him the team captain for the day-super cute!

At 8, Andrew:

~still LOVES to read. It is VERY rare to see him without a book in his hand.

~LOVES animals, mainly CATS

~Loves football. He is getting really good at throwing and catching and loves to tell me the plays

~still likes gymnastics...we will see where it takes us!

~is soo good to his brothers, mainly Julian:) Ryan gets on his nerves a little bit

~has made some good buddies at school finally, but still misses NYC

~can plow through his homework like there is no tomorrow

~is creative, (for example, on his birthday thank you's, he drew pictures of each gift along with the words)

~is probably the child that tries to please the most (and can get really upset when he knows you are upset with him)

~still DOESN'T flush the toilet

~can still be a loner. He craves alone time probably more than socialization right now (which could just be being tired from a long school day)

~likes to swim, shoot hoops, build forts, play in the sandbox, make crafts for others, build robots, play on monkey bars, and be GOOFY!

We love you Andrew! And even though you don't believe us, you are the best oldest brother Andrew there is:)

We ended the day at Friendly's for ice cream per request
