He tried so hard to be a brave man getting his kindergarten shots at his checkup. He had to have 5. It was pretty intense, I am not gonna lie. He hadn't had a shot in years and he was not super stoked about it. He did do the hold the breath cry for a second then limped all the way to the car and for the rest of the day...and maybe the next. ;)
Here are some things about Koen at 5 years old!
*He loves his little brothers
He talks about Pierce everyday. He sings to his little buddy, like the music therapist sang to Pierce. He prays for him. He talks about when he'll see him again. He misses him.
He teases Brigs ALL day everyday. They are best friends. He loves to wrestle him. He is great about sharing with him and helping him...most the time. ;)
He is so proud of himself. He keeps talking about how big he is. He can even drink out of a glass cup. ;)
* He learned how to go off the diving board and has become quite the little swimmer. He even jumped off the high dive in Lava Hot Spring with NO life jacket!
*He has his first mow hawk! And his LOVING IT!
*He has really started to read over the past few months.
*He is a big Kindergartner. He said so far he likes it better than Preschool!
*His best friends are Tessa, Beckham and Kade.
*He is becoming quite the dare devil. He loved Lagoon and the big rides there.
*His favorite colors are red and aqua marine...yes he seriously said that.
*He wants to stay up late every night to wish on the wishing star
*He loves to catch bugs in his new bug collecting kit that he got a preschool graduation!
*He is going to marry a girl from table 4 names Maddison and Tessa is going to marry Sister Bond's son. haha
He is such a fun and easy going kid. We love having him be part of our family!
Some funny things come out of this kids mouth!
-Sunday he was asked to give the prayer in Primary. He gave a normal great prayer and then for the last line threw in "Thank you that I can ride my bike with out training wheels" and then closed...silly kid
-The other day we had this conversation:
Koen: "Mom what if you could build stairs to Heaven and we could go and see Pierce any time and then just come back"
Me: "Ya buddy I really wish we could just visit him"Koen: "I think I could probably build some out of paper."
Yesterday in primary they were learning about the brother of Jared and right before they got to the part where he touches the stones, Koen leaned over to his neighbor and said "this is the best part"
*we had a little friend names Ruby over the other day to play and that night he said "Mom now I am not sure who I am going to marry, Maddison or Ruby" I was like "oh really" He then said his prayers and when he finished he said "Mom, is it ok for me to ask Heavenly Father who I am gonna marry?" LOL I told him he could ask, but since it was really time sensitive he may not get an answer. HAHA
Sure love that kid!

Noah had to get the 5 shots too! The not so bright nurse brought them all out on a tray and set them down right next to him. He was freaking out before she even gave him the first shot! Poor little guys! Happy (late) Birthday Koen!
He limped to the car! So sad! Glad he is loving school and is such a sweet brother. Any pointers on how to get them off the training wheels we need serious help.
So I am guessing that It is confirmed that Ruby is out of the running for marrying Koen? LOL! He is so funny! Oh, ruby wanted me to ask if Koen got the mail she sent.
You have a spectacular 5 year old!
I love Ko so much. He is one of a kind in my book. Thanks for sharing all these cute stories about him!
Cute conversations...Happy Birthday buddy!
Yay for your blog not being private! I really love reading your blog, Alesha. You truly are an amazing writer. And the words you write about Pierce, are so precious. You and your fam are too darling!
The things he says are hilarious! And the one about Pierce was so sweet. :) What a cute little guy!
Could Koen be any cuter? Five... Really? It goes too fast! Sure hope my Cohen grows up to be as thoughtful as yours! I love his little conversations about Pierce. He is so darling and ready to pray about a wife... I LOVE IT!
