Nox turns FOUR

Nox turns four today. 


We joke that all the things you hear about red heads are totally true with this one. His teacher calls him "spirited". He is mischievous, adventurous and he's got a fiery temper to match that hair. 


He is obsessed with Legos...especially Mixels. We have them all and are not so patiently waiting for the next series to come out. 


Out of all of us, he is the healthiest eater. Nox has been known to choose carrots and apples over candy and goldfish crackers. I don't always make the healthiest choices, but it always makes me so proud when Nox does. 


Common Noxer Phrases:
"I got this"
"When the sun gets up, I'm gonna...ya know..." 
followed by a lengthy list of stuff he WILL be doing in the morning. Usually something to do with Legos. Yesterday it was "...I'm gonna, ya know, come down stairs and you (Daddy) and Mama are going hide and ya know, I'm going to say "where are you?" And you are going to ya know, SURPRISE ME!" 
"It's OKAY. Don't SAY that."
(Sometimes before you've even said anything...and usually in regards to his shoes being worn on the wrong feet.)

Nox is the best at keeping everyone on their toes, gives the fiercest hugs and has a laugh that brightens each day.  This boy knows how to push every button I have and can make me laugh even when I don't much feel like it. He is my crazy, ultimate ginger and I adore each day with him.

Happy Birthday Noxman, I can't wait to see where this year takes you!

He is so precious! And BIG! This post is great. Happy Birthday Nox!

P.S.- I hope we can come Monday. I'm just trying to get everything in order before Rob's surgery Tuesday morning.
