International Day of Peace

Last Saturday was the International Day of Peace.  We celebrated at my pre-k by making pinwheels.  They look a little sad five days later but on Friday they were spinning around and looking great!  I made a purple one. 

Sorry for no updates this week the entire family has been sick with some stomach bug for several days now.  Dan and Dexter are back to normal now but mommy is still feeling pretty crummy. 

Dirt pile

What can be more fun than a huge pile of dirt?  Not a whole lot it seems.

Almost every day I want to go play on the dirt pile with my friends Josh and Kyle.  It is behind their house in the final section of housing development.   It should be awesome this winter for sledding, by next winter it will be long gone a replaced with houses. 

Soccer highlights

Today was my second game.  Right now I enjoy running around and playing soccer more during the water breaks and halftime breaks than I do the formal game time.  I like to kick the ball but with so many kids and only one ball I lose interest quickly.  

I am the blond kid in the gray uniform wearing sunglasses.

Hanging out

Today I finally went to the puppet show at Burger King.  They have one every Tuesday but we had to wait for Daddy to go out of town (he is in Colorado for 2 weeks) to go because Daddy thinks puppets are creepy.  It was fun and the puppet lady was very nice to me.

We finally got the laundry room countertop and sink - now we just have to wait for Daddy to come back to install it and figure out how to do the plumbing for the sink.  Once that is in the awesome laundry room will be complete and we can move on to the next project - get a coffee table and maybe area rug.

We have a lot of sports going on.  I am playing soccer Wednesdays and Saturdays and mommy is playing on a hospital softball team on Sundays. 

I start speech therapy next week at Glenkirk Elementary.  I will go every Monday and Wednesday from 9-9:30 all school year long.  My speech teacher's name is Ann Edwards and I can't wait to meet her next week.

On a sad note one of my Mommy's and Aunt Heather's friend in Ohio died this week of a brain aneurysm.  She was only 40 years old and was an amazing woman.  She was a psychology professor with Heather but her hobby was photography.  She took some of the best photos of me over the years and it is sad to think she is gone.   Check out her website (I made the cover): http://www.carolynkaufmanphotography.com/

Soccer practice

I am in the blue T-shirt, 2nd from the top - About to play red light, green light

Today was my first soccer practice.  It was lots of fun!  I met Coach Paul and the 11 other kids on my team.  I got my uniform (I will show you on gameday).  We played fun drills like "red light, green light", "simon says" and "soccer coach is a monster try to kick a ball at him while he runs around"  For the next 8 weeks every Wednesday I have practice and every Saturday I have a game.

Home week!

Normally I have "home days" on weekends, but this week I had "home week"!  My pre-K was closed all week for teacher planning so I spent time with mommy and daddy.  I helped mom hang up Gators decorations in our garage and house.  I spent time with Daddy in the kiddy pool.  I have one more day off before school and work start up again.
