Our first teenager!

Our oldest child is now officially a teenager!  Where have the years gone???  Spencer is exhibiting many of the signs of teenager-hood, such as moodiness, girl craziness, and wanting to sleep on, but he's still an awesome kid who is very obedient and good.  We're lucky!  He's also hit a major growth spurt, and I can hardly keep him in clothes.  He is about an inch shorter than me, standing at 5'6", and he's already passed his grandmas in height.  He's anxious to get braces in the summer, and for his voice to get lower, so that the older girls will pay attention to him!  It's all about the girls.  For his birthday this year, all Spencer wanted was a cell phone and unlimited texting.  Since we had held out longer than most parents, we were happy to oblige him.  And his social life has been pumping since!  Happy Birthday Machine!!!
