11.....WOW

Jeremiah Lennon.  Born at 9:06pm on January 21, 2002.


11 years ago, almost to the minute.

He was 4 weeks early, weighing just 5 pounds, 7 ounces and 19 inches long.

He had huge feet!  That should have been an indicator to his current size (4 feet, 11 inches; 80 pounds; wears size 7 in boys shoes and size 10-12 for clothes).

I say it a lot, but man, time has FLOWN.  I can remember a lot of the details of my pregnancy and the birth, though they are fading as the years go on.  Thankfully, I have details of everything, including nurse's names, food, and visitors from that fateful night when I became a Mom, written down in a journal that will someday be Jeremiah's.

It hasn't been an easy 11 years, by any means.  But, we've survived (truly miraculous).

And now, we celebrate.  This kid right here:



Just like Alayna, I interviewed Jeremiah for some fun facts.  Here it is:

What is your favorite color?  Green 

What is your favorite food?  Mom's chili

What is your favorite animal?  Orca 

What do you like to do for fun?  Read, build things, kickball, play video games, skateboard 

What is your favorite board game?  Carcassone

What is your favorite book?  The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series

Who is your favorite musician?  The Aquabats

What is your favorite song?  Blessed Be Your Name (Tree 63 version)

What do you like most about yourself?  Good at math

What do you want to be when you grow up?  Architect




We did a lot to celebrate his day.  I'll write about that in another post once I go through all the photos.  

Happy 11th Birthday Jeremiah Lennon!  We love you!
