At his six year old well-check he weighed about 60 pounds and measured 4'1'', which put his weight at 96% and his height at 98%!! He looks two years older than he is, lol. People always think he's older than he is because he has always looked older with his height and weight.
He does amazing with homeschool, I can ask him to work on something independently and he will (for the most part) sit down and focus until he finishes. He loves to read Life of Fred (our math curriculum), and he loves doing art projects (we don't do them very often, so he really enjoys them when we do!), he loves building LEGO's (his favorite LEGO's right now are NINJAGO and Minecraft). He loves to read and about six months ago started reading the Magic Treehouse series and has been doing awesome with it, I'm super impressed! He was reading before he officially started Kindergarten, and he progressed so much this year! Every night we have reading time before bed and he reads on his own, sometimes the Magic Treehouse chapter books, and other nights he'll just grab an assortment off the bookshelf, if Benson will let him he also likes to read to him before bed. He usually wakes up before 7 AM, and we have a rule where no one is allowed to come out before 7, so he will read instead.
When we go for walks he is always so observant, one morning we were walking along the river and he told me he loved the sound of the water. Other times he will pick a flower along the trail for me (almost every day, lol, he's so sweet), yesterday he grabbed a foxtail and told me it was his special wheat. lolol. He also loves having a FitBit, and loves to see how many steps he gets everyday.
He loves to wrestle with his brothers and be very, very noisy! He also loves to build marble runs, play outside, and build Hot Wheels tracks. He also loves to play t-ball and wears a baseball hat almost every single day!! I used to ask him, "do you want to do your hair or wear a hat?" Now I know that, unless he has to do his hair for church or some other non-hat wearing occasion, he will be wearing a hat. And he is so good to always take it off for prayers. :)
His favorite foods right now are: Spaghetti, all FRUIT, cottage cheese, yogurt, carrots, Annie's mac & cheese, and chicken. He does not like pita pizzas or peanut butter sandwiches anymore, lol.
On to his party! Grandma and Grandpa Brown surprised us and came to visit and celebrate with us, Aunt Brianna joined us, too. :) We headed up to visit Grandma Lenore early in the morning. Then Beckham wanted to go bowling, which is becoming a little tradition for him, lol. We all had a blast and the kids loved it!
He asked for a Minecraft cake with green frosting for grass, he wanted the golden Alex figure. :) He also helped put the candles on and said they were torches, lol.
He was SO happy to get Lloyd's golden dragon! lol
