TJ turns 11 today....


TJ made his entrance in this world in only a few short hours. I started having contractions at around 10 pm with him and by 12:24 am he was born at 8 lbs 8 ozs just like his older brother. Poor boy screamed and cried for 2 hours after his birth while James tried to console him to no avail. He was my ONLY baby I did not have a epidural with so I remember it well. HEHE.

TJ always loved animals as a toddler and young child. Everything he did was centered around animals. He spoke animal, he referred to everything in an animal way and would spend hours looking at animal books over other books. He could recited theory on Manta Rays, sharks, etc. He has a brilliant mind.

He is the artistic one out of our family. He loves to draw. I even got a comment from his teacher at school that she thinks he needs to go into graphic design because he is so artistic. He is my only one beside Rae of course that loves to draw.

TJ is great at football and Lacrosse. He is an aggressive player. He will be playing lacrosse this weekend at the Battle of Bothell. He is great!

TJ has a softer side to him. Even thought he hates being touched to much he loves to give me hugs and will do so without me asking him. He my child who HATES being forced to do anything. You have to ease him into things and talk him into it. Lookout teenage years. HEHE. That is what I love about TJ, he has a independent soul like his mamma.

I love you TJ. You mean the world to me. Happy BDAY! And look at those cute double dimples. :)
