All About Colton Age 4

Here is what Colton is doing now at age 4 and his stats from his 4 year check up.  The doctor said Colton was healthy and very smart! This was a rough check up with shots and a finger prick but Colton did great! We are so proud of our big boy!  We love you so much Colton!
Height: 39 ¾ in (45%)
Weight: 36.2 lbs (70%)
BMI: 16 (60%)• Colton started Preschool this year and loves it! He goes 3 days a week from 9 to 2 at our church.  
•He continues to be a very picky eater.  We struggle to get him to try new foods.  His favorite foods include: pizza, chicken nuggets, chips (he loves all kinds!), crackers, applesauce, bananas, strawberries, lemonade, queso, cereal (cinnamon toast crunch and life), milk, and chocolate.  
• Colton wears mostly 4T clothes now, with a few lingering 3T items. 
• This boy is his momma's child for sure...he talks a lot!! If he is awake he is talking or singing.  He can communicate very well and you can understand everything he is saying.  He can say some really funny and clever things! Keeps us laughing and on our toes!
• Colton is very smart.  The doctor said he was developmentally about 6 1/2! He is doing really well with writing his name and other letters.  He is consistently learning new things and amazes us with what he remembers and understands! He is very inquisitive and always asking "Why?".  He loves to learn
• He loves to color and draw.  When he colors he is getting better at attempting to stay in the lines.  He loves to draw very detailed smiley faces. (with eyebrows, hair, arms and legs)
• Colton still loves music! He likes to play instruments and sing all the time.  He likes singing along in the car to Veggie Tales and Luke Bryan!  
• He loves playing outside.  He likes to play baseball, in his sand box, helping Daddy with outside chores, playing with Austin, bubbles and with the water hose. 
• Colton is a great little helper! He likes to help us around the house, at the store and with Cambry.  I hope this continues for awhile! 
• He is a very sweet and compassionate boy! He uses his manners pretty much all the time and if someone is hurt or says "ouch" he immediately asks "Are you ok?".  He loves to get and give hugs!
• Colton is an amazing big brother! He adores his sister and is always trying to make her smile and laugh.  He is usually always successful too!
• Some of his other favorite things right now are: Veggie Tales, building with blocks and legos, playing with his train tracks, play-doh, playing with his friends and birthday parties, Toy Story, going to get donut holes, taking glow baths & showers, playing hide n seek, going on scavenger hunts, super heroes, riding his scooter, playing with puppies at the pet store, going to the park and Paw Patrol. 
And of course Frankie is still his favorite companion! :)
 Colton kept busy at the doctor's office writing on the paper! :)
