Another Season of Soccer.
We've all enjoyed Hayden's fall soccer league. Not only was in very competive, he played with mostly 8 year olds and he kept right up with them. He has gotten so much better! He scored a few goals even. He played goalie many games and only had 2 balls get past him! Their team was undeafeted the whole season. I am going to miss this group! But we are having a kids vs parents game tonight and a pizza party on Thursday. His coach was amazing, so patient but stern with the kids. They learned so much from him. I hope we are lucky enough to have him as a coach again!

I think its time for a little Carson update!
Boy is this guy full of it! He is what my brother calls a Sour Patch Kid. He is so sweet but watch out sometimes.
He loves his choo-choos still. Still has his 2 loves in his life, his buffy and his "mmmm" (blankets). He loves Dora and Diego lately and sings along to their theme songs. He counts to 10 in spanish and 12 in english. He knows all his colors including white, brown and wello(yellow, my favorite he says). He says "O-Tay" instead of okay. He knows all his letters big and small and is working on the alphabet song. He doesnt like loud things and always is letting us know when something is "too noisy".
He loved traveling on our trip always pointing out the sky, sun, moon and water. He still talks about the "Big Heads" and "waafalls" (waterfalls).
He knows his brothers favorite things and plays Harry Potter with him. With both of them casting spells on one another and falling down backwards into the chair.
He is going to a new babysitter and he loves it! He always wants to go to "Natie's" and see her baby.
He loves playing with Breckie and Baby Ky. He loves Haira(Sarah) and is very open to her. He talks about the one time Sarah pushed him in the double stroller with Kyler, he loved it.
He loves to help! Which is a mixed blessing.
He is a dare double and loves going on rides at the fairs this summer. He also "Mounces" all the time!
He is wearing 2t clothes, size 8 shoes and size 4 diapers. He weighs about 33 pounds and 36" tall (I think!)

Happy 1st Day(s) of School
Hayden has started 1st grade with a bang. He was advanced enough to be reading at a F and G levels! This momma was proud! His teacher is Mrs Larson and she seems great. Her classroom is warm and inviting with so much to do! She has a whole wall with a books, that she has in order, I love it! She has a Smart Board in her classroom and was letting the students play around with it during The Great Start Day. Carson wowed her by saying the names of the letters as Jason pointed on them. He has bunch of friends in his class including Jed and Marianna who we've known since last summer. His pal Jolene who adores Hayden too. He is so excited to be at school again!
Jason and I know what a great little boy we've raised when we go to the school and teachers and aides and other students say Hi to him, constantly, we seriously couldn't walk down the hall without being stopped. Some teachers had talked about him to Mrs Larson, and she had heard nothing but positive things about him and saying that Mrs Walt called him her cheerleader.
Have a great year Hayden! We know you'll do us proud!
