Kid Update ~ The Boy

Our doctor wanted to see Walker for a

TEN/almost eleven year check up since

he's growing soooo fast! 

He continues to move on UP that

growth chart at rapid speeds!!!

He weighs 94 pounds and he's 5' 1 1/2" tall. 

Our doctor even did an x-ray of his hand

to see about what size he is and what

size he might end up.  He's basically the

size of a 12 year old so it's all good and okay.

Who knows if and when he will stop

growing or what his actual size will be.

Well, the Good Lord Above knows

and that's all that matters!  :)

For now, he's growing quickly

and in some ways that this mama is not

ready to think about!!!  For example,

 not wanting me to take his picture

and giving ME the hand!!!!!;(

Regardless he's still as fun, crazy

and sweet as EVER!!!!!!!!!!!

He is loving life and trying to be

involved in everything and everyone ~

except for girls!  YAY!!!!

I love him more than I did yesterday;

in fact, even more than I did when he

was this big, cute baby boy......

Apparently he learned the "look" early on...

and I have a feeling I'm about to be seeing

more of that look as the teen years approach!

Just the other day, I was about to drop him off

at a friend's house to go to the water park with

a group of guys.  He had chosen not to spend the

night with them the night before and so I was

trying to explain to him it might take him

a few minutes to get acclimated to the group

since they'd been together all night

(apparently I was thinking like a GIRL not a GUY).

He looked at me like I was crazy and

asked me WHY?  I tried explaining it to him

and with the most serious face he said,

"Just quit talking."  haaaaaaaaaaaaaa

That was about the meanest Walker has ever been to me.

And maybe that's why I still secretly

picture him as THIS sweet precious baby boy!!!
