Everett: Spring

April

Everett started Jiu Jitsu in January. He had his first rank review and earned his first belt! He is so proud of himself and we couldn't be more proud as well. He goes to Jiu Jitsu three nights a week and is always so excited. He thinks he is in training to become a ninja! What was extra special at his rank review was that he was able to meet Bruno Bastos, a world Jiu Jitsu champion. He was so kind to all of the kids and signed their belts. The night ended with pizza for all of the kids. Everett had such a great time.

I love when you tell me facts you learn from your dad, like that Mount Everest is the tallest mountain.

We have started picking out chapter books when we go to the library and it is so fun to read them.

On your birthday you wanted to check and see how tall and powerful you were now.

It was adorable seeing you give the prayer and scripture in primary.

Kindergarten is almost over. You are writing well, reading a little bit, and really enjoy school and learning. It was really cute having kids from your school class at your birthday party. 

It seems like every time we go to the park you are making new friends. 

Six year check up: Weight 41 pounds 21%. Height 46 inches tall 54%.

June

Something funny you said when we were trying to get the toy octopus to hang. "The weight distribution isn't correct."

You are such a little scientist and love doing experiments and learning about new things.

You are loving the magic treehouse books and it is fun to see how much you remember from them.

After your dentist appointment, "I want to be a paleontologist and a dentist when I grow up. And maybe a police man."

I love that you join me in bed in the mornings and snuggle and tell me about your dreams the night before.
