Grayson's 7th Birthday

Happy 7th Birthday to our sweet Grayson!  How can my first born be 7 years old!?  He is such a fun little boy.  He loves playing sports, but soccer is his favorite (MY FAVORITE TOO).  He just started playing club soccer, which is a big commitment (4 days per week), but made this soccer mom heart so happy.  (I cried when he made the first team).  He has improved so much from last year and loves to show us his "new moves".  He's doing moves I've never seen before so this is so fun for us to watch.  He loves playing soccer, pickle ball and frisbee in the alley with our neighbors.  We celebrated his birthday with a low key family party as it was Labor Day weekend so most people were out of town.  We had some appetizers, ribs, corn, beans, Sweet Mandy B's cookies, cupcakes and a cake.  We used the same theme as last year (minecraft) and he wore a fun birthday shirt that had a gaming console that said 7th level.  He had fun wearing his birthday shirt, taking pictures with his birthday signs and playing with his presents.  

We went to Dr. Cherian for his 7 year check up this week and he weighs 45 pounds 8 ounces.  He is 3 feet 10 inches (46 inches).  A few weeks after his 7 year check up we went to the endocrinologist for a follow up visit.  He weighed 46 pounds and was 45.9 inches tall with a bone age of 7.  They did a scan of his hand to check his bone age.  (He also had a follow up visit in March and was 44.6 inches tall and was 42 pounds.)  He wears size 12 1/2 in shoes, 8 in pajamas, size 6t in clothes.
