Personality:
Andrew is an all around easy-going guy, who is generally friendly and will smile/wave. When he has something to say, he talks a mile-a-minute. He knows what he wants and will go after it. I walked into the kitchen and the refrigerator door was wide open and there was a bag of shredded cheese on the floor. Andrew was sitting in the middle of the cheese eating it off the floor, looks up and tells me "I got myself a snack, all by myself!" He is exercising his independence, and I have to watch him like a hawk. We've seen his temper lately, and he has his own ideas about when/how he wants things to go. Out of all the kids, he is the most sensitive when we lay down the law, and will boo-hoo like his heart's broken. He has a flair for the dramatic (where could he possibly get that from?). He also takes after his Daddy in the "I can bug my sister's the best" department... Drew has quite the sense of humor and will let out belly laughs when he thinks something is funny.
Sayings:
"Me do it" He' been all about potty humor lately... "Poo poo Pie"and says "Maybe _____ (fill in the blank watch TV, eat snackie, go outside, pick up sissys) "I no like it, it's yucky!" "I wove you Mama/Daddy/Sissys" "Watch me _____ (throw a ball/roll a truck on the floor/write name)" "I can fix it for you Mommy"

Interests:
This is one fun boy, he adores all things on wheels: Trucks (of every shape and size), Tractors, Cars, Motorcycles and Trains. Being outside, helping Daddy pick up sticks. Helping Daddy do anything really ;)

| He was SO proud |
Learning:
Andrew loves our learning time, called "Preschool Practice" we do in the mornings a couple days a week. He's been doing great learning how to write his name, letter sounds, days or the week/months or the year, numbers. He knows all his shapes and colors, and his favorite is reading our stories of the week. This kid could spend hours in the library! He surprises me with his fine motor skills and is pretty darn good at cutting with scissors. His language skills have sky rocketed, and he is speaking in complete, complex sentences, although sometimes hard to understand certain words ;)

Friends: Andrew has lots of besties, Jude, Micah at CBS on Wednesdays and on Tuesdays he plays with Felix and Fallarian at Miss Marcy's house next door. Our next door neighbor, Michael is 6 and a train fanatic and loves to share his trains with Drew.
Spiritual: Andrew loves his time spent at CBS, and the ladies there love him too. He really does love to sing, and does a good job singing his bible memory verses each week. Drew likes to lead prayer at the dinner table, and is learning all about who God is, and his place in our family and as a child of God.
Drew, what a joy and delight you bring to our family! You are growing into a wonderful big boy, and we are so proud of you!
