Our baby is 4 years old...
Hello Fam,
I felt that it was way past time that we send you a little update on the child formerly known as our "baby boy". Four years ago on this very day, I gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. The doctor decided to induce me a month early due to Ra's size (at the time 7.6 lbs). Maybe this should have been a sign that we wouldn't have to be concerned about his growing milestones, but it wasn't. Ra is currently 51 lbs and 44 inches tall. Our 4 year old is almost 4 feet tall and shows no sign of slowing anytime soon.
He is currently in pre-school. He had some issues when we first moved. I think there were too many changes at on time: new city, new house, new bedroom, no friends, and then after 4 month mommy went back to work. He lost it. He began acting out at school and we actually had to find him a smaller setting with a stern teacher before he was banned from every school in the Central Valley. He is just now settling down a bit (finally). He is making friends and getting used to Fresno (mommy is still trying to do that). He is older now...so he has the chance to spend time with family (without mom and dad). Things are good.
This year, we decided to celebrate Ra's birthday with family and the 4th of July landed on a weekend, so we combined the two celebrations and it was great (exhausting, but great). On Friday (July 3rd) a group of us went to the Bay Area Discovery Museum in Sausalito, CA. It was a great place for toddlers and pre-schoolers (it may be a little slow for older children, but it works for 2-6 year olds). The children ran themselves ragged (Ra included). They climbed, painted, played instruments, danced, did experiments, chased each other around, etc, etc. So I've included some pictures of the festivities on Day 1 of Ra's Birthdayfest. Enjoy!!!
Peace&luv,
des, hasan & ra
