Peanut turned 4 today and he has learned and experienced so much this past year.

In August, he started swimming lessons and really enjoyed his new teacher, Coach Jin.

In September, he received his kung fu uniform and started the Little Tiger class. This guy became a big fan of Bruce Lee too.

In October, he went to the dentist and sat for his first set of x-rays and cleaning.

In November, he learned how to spell his name and started drawing the letter T.

In December, we went to Hawaii and he wasn’t afraid of floating around in the ocean or going down the big slide at the hotel. Swimming lessons have paid off.

In January, Peanut got on a snowboard for the first time and LOVED it. He was also not afraid to go down the hill from the moment he got clicked into the board.

In February, we went to Vancouver for the week and he discovered Tim Bits!!! This guy could finish a whole box of 6 doughnut holes all on his own. He also took his first snowboarding lesson.

By March, he was able to write his name and draw figures. He was also finding more interest in coloring.

By April, he was able to write all the letters of the alphabet, could write his last name and fill out a birthday card with Mama helping him with the spelling.

In May, he went to his first baseball game and enjoyed chanting “Let’s Go Oakland!” with the crowd.

In June, he took his first cruise and also visiting Alaska for the first time with his family.

And now it’s July and has turned 4 years old. We have learned that he has a very silly side but also gives the best hugs. In addition to all the things listed above, he had learned to pump a swing, dress himself completely, and has started to sound out letters. He has moved up to the white-black belt class in kung fu and moved up from Starfish to Seahorse in swim. His laugh is infectious and his confidence in life is pretty cool to watch. We love our Peanut and can’t wait to see what’s in store for him this coming year.
