S P E N C E R

This blog post will be all about S P E N C E R!!!

He's been a ball of fun lately, and growing up too fast, as always. He is in first grade this year and we just had his parent/teacher conference at school this week. We found out that he is doing great academically! But can be a little immature, but the teacher realizes for his age (he's one of the youngest in the class, started 1st grade at age 5), it's normal. She said he will catch up soon, and she also has realized that Spencer likes attention. :) heehee, I could have totally told her that!! But overall, he is doing great. His teacher said that he was "clever and brilliant!"

His teacher asked us if he hung out with this one girl in class outside of school, and we said only at Embassy functions do they play outside of school together, and we asked why. She said because they seem to have a special bond, where they look out for each other. If one is having a bad day the other is sensitive to it and watches out for them. Now, isn't that just the sweetest thing?!!? I'm glad he looks out for his friends, and she is one of his favorites, mostly because she is kinda a tomboy, and not a girlie-girl. They get along great! It'll be sad to move away from all of the friends Spencer has made these past two years.

Anyway, here are some pictures of our cute boy!

Spencer was invited to a birthday party for a friend at the Embassy and they had face-painting at the party, so he decided to have something done! Here's BATMAN!!! The paint around his mouth got rubbed off from the eating of all the food there and cotton candy.

Spencer was outside looking for bugs or just playing and I started taking pictures of him. I love this one with the full on laugh he was doing. :D

Last week we were able to harvest our garden and made lots of salads for ourselves afterwards. Spencer decided he wanted one also, so he asked for a SALAD?!?! one night. Here was his dinner, looks yummy huh? All from the garden. :)
