School, ready or not here Aiden comes!

Well, We got Aiden all registered for school this morning. He was very excited to see where he’ll be attending school next year. He thought the size of the building was rather impressive. It was bitter sweet for me. I still can’t believe he is actually old enough to start school so soon. It’s amazing how fast how fast the last 5 years flew by! We set up an appointment to tour his school in a few weeks. Aiden is SUPER excited about that. He already knows a few kids who go to Independence. You can tell he really feels like big stuff knowing he gets to go there soon. He asked when school started, when I told him August his response was, “WOW! That’s only 4 months away, that’s not long at all!!”

The boys had two soccer games since my last post. They have out played every team they’ve played so far. By the game they had on Thursday you couldn’t help but feel bad for the other team. The final score was 23 to 2. Saturday’s game was a bit better at 16 to 3. The boys are all having a great time! Adam has already really made a difference for some of these boys. One of the boys’ dad has already said he doesn’t want his son playing for anyone else! I’m uploading pictures from the last two games, so check those out when you get the opportunity.

Adam leaves tomorrow afternoon for a 3 day business trip. Aiden and I are going to miss him, but we’re also looking forward to some time alone together. Then it’s Easter weekend! We’ll be getting Ryann, and we’re all super excited to see our little princess!!!

I guess that’s it for us right now. I promise to get some non-soccer pictures up soon!

This and That

I can’t believe an entire month has passed since my last post, Ooops!
Really there hasn’t been any one thing that has occured that would warrent it's own post, so this will be a hodgepodge of this and that…..

Galaxy has had one game since my last post. They won, 15 to 5. They’ve had weekly practice, and it’s been so cute watching this group of boys that all started out pretty much strangers, form friendships. This age is too cute!

Adam took Aiden for his 5 year well check at the beginning of the month. He still doing great, 45” tall and 44lbs. His eyes are about 20/30, and his hearing is great!

Spring Break was last week. Adam took most of the week off, and stayed home with the kids. I think they all enjoyed the break. It was nice to let them sleep in for a change. Aiden is usually up around 6am, so I know he loved getting the extra rest. Ryann learned how to ride her bike with out training wheels, so the kids and Adam took daily rides around the neighborhood. One afternoon we all rode out to the frozen yogurt place near the house. It was a lot of fun, and something I hope we can do more often.

Adam turned 32 over the break. He said he had a great birthday – and was totally spoiled. We ate like kings this last week with all the different birthday meals, so really we were all spoiled J.

Ryann welcomed a new member to her family. Her Mom and boyfriend welcomed their little boy on the 16th. Ryann is super excited to be a big sister again. She was really looking forward to getting back to her Mom's and meeting him.

We rounded out last week with what I hope will be the last snow of the year. We got about an inch, not even enough to cover the roads – but enough to wake up to a white yard. Please let winter end! I’m ready for Spring already!!!!

I made the call to Keller ISD, and Adam and I have an appointment on Monday to register Aiden for school next year. I couldn’t help but get teary eyed after that phone call. – Lord help us on the first day of school, I’m going to be an emotional wreck!! Luckily we have several months to prepare.

I guess that's pretty much it for us for now. Adam and Aiden have a game tomorrow night, so look for pictures of that soon!!
