Mudgie turns four

Somehow this got skipped in the half hearted attempt at blogging about
our lives. But back in July Mudgie turned four.

We kept his birthday simple. A little celebration at home complete
with train cake decorated with gobs of candy. He was in heaven.

Mudgie is one sparkly kid.
His brothers adore him.
He had some entertaining facial expressions.
He loves trains and roaming around with neighborhood kids.
The kitchen stools elevate him into all sorts of mischief.
He sleeps with his favorite green blanket, pesters Holland, and
givings great morning snuggles.

Recently he's really started talking. Really talking. Tonight he
said, "Mom I want to give you a kiss. Can I give you some bejinos
(spanish for kiss. . . we kiss both cheeks). Thanks mom, I love you."
Not only was it sweet, but I understood every word.

This fall (just a week and a half ago) he started preschool. He is so
blessed to be in the buddy bear program at our local elementary. As a
parent you always hope that your kid is doing okay and I was thrilled
when Miss Teri said, "Talmage is the perfect buddy bear for our
afternoon class." Phew! We walk to school almost everyday together
with his Thomas the Train backpack, his spikey hair, and his orange
shoes.
