Shaun 3.0

As of 6:21pm last night our middle guy is officially THREE! We talked a lot about how it was going to be his birthday on the 10th and we would ask him how old he was. He said 4 a lot, (because he hears David say that he is 4) but we would hold up three fingers and he would then say THREE! He told everyone he saw yesterday that it was his birthday, even David's teacher and since they were celebrating the kids who had summer birthdays at school that day she gave him one of the birthday crowns she passes out! He was so excited!

He has really come out of his shell over the last year, mostly due to finding his words. By the end of December he was speaking full sentences and while he was evaluated still a little behind, it wasn't enough to keep him in Early Intervention. He "graduated" and we continued to work with him on our own and through our various playgroups. Today, unless you knew he had EI for speech, you probably wouldn't even know he ever had any issues!!

Shaun's personality is so infectious. I have been told by many parents at our various playgroups how he lights up a room, and that he's most likely to end up being the class clown! Even when he's fresh it's hard to be mad at him because he makes it look so cute!

Shaun's famous "MAD" Face! See hard not to laugh every time he makes that face when he is mad or in trouble!


He's growing into such a funny, energetic, sweet little boy and I can't wait to see what the next year has in store for him as he will be starting Preschool in the fall!





The Birthday Boy!


Edited to add:
Shaun never had a 3 year check to get his stats but I estimated his height to be: 36.5 inches
