It seems like just yesterday he looked like this:

And this:

But now he looks like this!
I'm depressed!
Plus yesterday he started driver's ed classes which makes me depressed and scared!
But it's also exciting that he's growing up--he has so many interests and is good at so many things--there's never a dull moment with Andy!
You know what he's doing right now? He's playing the theme from The Office on the piano--he just taught himself tonight and he's playing it perfectly!
Unfortunately, I don't think he's going to have the most exciting birthday this year--for one thing, I have to evacuate my house for another open house, plus Patrick will be in the next phase of his spelling bee--oh, and did I mention that I took Teddy back to the doctor and that, in addition to the Influenza B, he now has pneumonia? Poor Teddy. I'm glad I took him back though--I feel better that he's on antibiotics now.
Andy has requested the chocolate fountain for his birthday like I had for Patrick--and I will try, but I'm feeling so overwhelmed I just don't know. I guess when I'm driving around during the open house I could try to get the supplies--but that means I'll have to take poor Pneumonia Boy and the unpredictable Drama Queen to the grocery store--that doesn't sound like such a good idea!
Oh well--if we don't end up with a great celebration today, we'll try to make up for it over the weekend. In any case--Happy Birthday Andy!!
P.S. Please excuse those older pics--I had to take photos of my scrapbook as my printer/scanner is one of the many electronics I've got stored in my car!
