Keagan is 4!

On Saturday Keagan turned 4. I can't believe he is already 4 years old. In the fall he will be going to Pre-K since I am a teacher. Another thing I can't believe-he is starting school. He seems to be really excited. He keeps telling me that the next year he wants to be in my class when he is in kindergarten and I keep telling him NO WAY! He is such a smart boy and we don't know what we would do without him. Other than adjusting to Karter coming into this world, he is usually very good. Keagan loves to spend every minute he can being at the barn, riding the tractors, or playing outside. Just today Cecil and him came home for lunch. I asked him what he had been doing. He told me he had been working on his forklift. I asked him what was wrong and he told me the motor wouldn't run. Cecil asked him how he fixed it and he said he took off all the nuts and bolts and put on new ones. He is so crazy.

On Saturday we had his birthday party at Ready Set Go where he goes to gymnastics. I didn't get many pictures of the kids playing.

I think it is impossible to get a good picture of 14 kids!


He had a Thomas the Train party. When we were going to order his cake I told him to pick a few of his trains he wanted on his cake. He picked out about 15. I told him that was too many to fit. He narrowed it down to 6 and they were able to get them all on the cake.

I told family members he didn't need anymore tractors. I think he has about 100. Potsey (Cecil's dad) saw this set at the John Deere House and thought he needed it because he didn't have that kind of plow. Grandparents just don't listen!
On Friday we took Keagan to get his pictures made. I told him if he did a good job we would get a pretzel when we were done. He did a very good job and the photographer was good too. Here are a few of my favorites.
He looks so grown up.

This is my absolute favorite. He was suppose to be standing with his thumbs in his pockets. The photographer asked him how old he was and said four and showed him with his hand. The photographer was able to snap a picture with him holding his hand up.

looks so big here
Saturday morning Keagan woke up and got sick. I was really hoping he wouldn't be sick for his party. After getting sick just that one time he was fine. After he opened his presents at the party he started acting like he was feeling bad again. We came home and he rode his tractor and 4-wheeler and he acted fine. That night before he went to bed he got sick again. Sunday morning he woke up with fever. He got sick several times throughout the day. He had a doctor's appointment Monday morning for his 4 year check-up. I knew he wouldn't be able to get his shots but we went ahead and went. His doctor said there was some kind of bug going around. We go back a week from Friday so he can get his shots. They weighed and measured him on Monday but I don't know what the measurements were.
