In one month from tomorrow Kristoffer will be 4! 4 years ago I was waddling around and now I'm having to make sure my running shoes are tied tightly. He has grown so much in the last couple months. Yesterday we went to Oaks Park for the first time and he went on his first rides! I think he liked the giant slide the best. I was completely shocked on the rides he went on but so proud he's not being so reserved on new things. I think it helped that 3 of his cousins (2 of them his age) were there.
Next month we are having a Cat in the Hat birthday party for him. Since June he's said he wanted a Toy Story party, a Angry Birds party and then it changed to Thomas party. Which he is a HUGE Thomas fan. But then about a week ago we were laying in his bed after a bedtime story and he said "Mom I want a Cat in the Hat birthday cake." So now the theme has changed yet again but this time we are sticking with Cat in the Hat. I can't wait to order all the stuff. He's going to love it. Plus my mom is making his cupcakes so I can arrange them into the cats hat. (Kristoffer wants to go to Grandma's house when I'm being "mean". So they will be extra special cupcakes)
Kristoffer has his first crush!!!!!! Her name is Khloie and she is a
cute 5 month old! He didn't care I was holding her which he usually
gets VERY jealous when I hold another baby or child. Kristoffer who
doesn't like to share his trains gave her is red train he calls James.
Then the ONE train he doesn't share at all (his Thomas) he let her play
with. He was very sad when she went home. The next morning he comes up
to me and says "mom baby Khloie coming in a little bit?!" I told him not
today and he seemed very bummed. You can ask him if he has a crush on
Khloie and he'll say "Ya" as he blushes. So cute. It's sad I'm not the
only girl in his life anymore. I thought I had a couple more years to be
the only girl.
He loves to make mud and finger mud paint the house. We had our first minor leak between the kitchen and bathroom and Kristoffer "helped" his dad fix the wall. Which he was very proud of himself. I wish he wasn't growing up so fast but at the same time I enjoy the adventures he takes us on.
