On Saturday we celebrated Bryce turning 7. We had a small birthday day party at my moms, with swimming and family. Since both my kids have their birthdays in the same week, it has been one big celebration! And it keeps on going....
I really can't believe he is 7 already. The other night Bobby and I were watching him sleep and his arms were crossed at the top over his head. I whispered to Bobby, "That is the exact pose he slept in when he was a baby..." He is still the mellow, sweet mannered kid he has been since the day he was born. While these adorable characteristics don't change, a lot is.
He has a mouth full of baby and big teeth. He has the hugest gap between his front teeth, so he will either need braces or a miracle. I call this the awkward stage of kids. Their smiles are quirky, the attitudes are funky, as they discover what's funny. He is a noise making, high energy, imaginitive kid. I am so proud of this little boy! When he plays baseball, does well in school, or when he takes care of his sister (he buckles he into the car for me, which is a huge help), or watches out for his friends I want to scream, "That's my boy!"
Bobby and I talk about what it will be like when he is older. The possibilities are exciting, but I am having a blast enjoying this age and the independence he has....although I do cuddle the crap out of him at night because I know that won't last....
Happy Birthday Bryce-man!
I really hope that nickname sticks throughout high school ;)
