Brigham has reached the ripe old age of four and has entered CTR 5, with a little bit of hesitation, since Mom is no longer his teacher. Dad had to sit through sharing time with him, but he had fun in his class until one of the kids knocked a chair on him. He has enjoyed this age for about 2 weeks now, and his birthday was nice and spread out. We had a little party with Mark's family a couple days after Christmas and gave his presents to him on his birthday, then had cake and his meal of tacos on Monday. One of the presents they didn't have at the store, so he got it the week after. He got a white shirt. Below is a picture of him receiving his quilt. Do you think he was a little excited?
This is Brigham's cake. he wanted Alex and Dad to play soccer, and then Lissie and I playing basketball, and he is in the middle, he says playing basketball. He added some of his nerds to the cake. Then he blew out his candles with a little help.
The last thing he got was a piggy bank that you could paint. Alex and he enjoyed painting it. It looks like a 4 and 5 year old painted it. Lissie was already in her jamies (jamma jamma pjs as she says), so I let her color in princess coloring book with my markers. I even got to color too!

Then as Mark was at meetings, we had hot chocolate with candy canes. This is a picture to see the results. Alex had a blue one, Brigham a red and Lissie a normal one.
Brigham also had a 4 year check up (1-4-08). All of Mark's family talked about how tall he had gotten since they'd seen him, so I thought that I'd post this. Its a good thing he'd grown since the last time they'd seen him or his numbers at the doctor wouldn't have been so high. He is 34.8 lbs, which puts him in the 25% for weight. He is 38 3/4 inches tall which puts him in the 10-25 % for height! Now I know why the clothes Alex wore last year don't fit him as well. He is taking after my family, at least for right now. It's quite a change from when he was a baby and was in the 90%.
So that is part of Brigham's life since he has been four!
