Andrew B.

Picture
Andrew was born April 12, 2006; he was breach so we got to pick the day. We chose April 12th so that we didn’t upset either one of his cousins, Heather is April 10th and Chelsea is April 14th. We thought smack in the middle would save a lot of arguments.   Andrew was not happy about having to come out of the womb 2 weeks early and boy did he let us know. He screamed so loud but the minute I heard his voice I knew his name would be Andrew.   

Every day since has been an adventure, he truly is a typical boy!  He loves everything from sports to cars to girls! Yes girls! He is quite the ladies man and loves it when girls fawn all over him. One of his favorite things to do is hang out with his Dad! If they’re not throwing the ball around, cooking in the kitchen or building a tent in the living room together they’re watching one of their many favorite sports on TV.  Soccer, basketball, football, baseball, golf, racing… you name it he loves it (his Dad is quite proud)!   Although Andrew gets a little unhappy if Dad turns off Hannah Montana for sports center. They don’t quite see eye to eye on that one.

Andrew loves his friends and his teachers. The minute he gets into school he makes sure to say hello to everyone!  He is a very happy boy and his smile just lights up a room! As his teachers say…. he loves to socialize. He loves people and no matter where we go he loves to say hello to everyone.  That’s why we call him ‘the Ambassador’.
