Demolition Derby

The pictures and videos speak for themselves. I had such a great time!!

More soccer

Josh is absolutely loving soccer. He can't get enough. He's always asking how many days and how many hours and how many minutes until he can play soccer. Connor has been getting frustrated though, and crying, because it is next to impossible to get a ball away from Josh. It's like he has glue on his shoes, or magnets, because that kid gets that ball and runs with it and I can't get the thing away from him. Josh has been very good at getting the ball (a lot!) and getting it to Connor so Connor actually has a lot of chances. But I think other kids are also getting frustrated because Josh is so good and they don't get much of a chance. I think the coaches even have a hard time stealing it away to give other kids a chance. I don't want to frustrate other kids so much that they don't like playing but I also don't want to squish Josh's talent. We signed him up for a kindergarten soccer league, so maybe that will be better. Right now they are on a 4 and 5 year old team and Josh will be 6 in November. But I played with Josh and I can totally see how Connor feels, because it was even getting frustrating for me! I had to cheat to score any goals. Yep. He's good.

Ribbons, boulders, and rootberries

Connor adds things to the end of words for some reason. I had some ribs from the Outback for dinner and Connor kept asking for ribbons. I tried to give him a ribbon, but alas, that was not what he wanted. He loved the ribs. We saw cows on the way to gymnastics and he kept saying he saw a boulder. Yeah. He meant a bull. Then he said he wanted some rootberries. It was, of course, root beer that he wanted.

Panda Express

We were driving past Panda Express and Josh said "It's a baby bear from China." It took me a second to realize that we drove past Panda Express, which has a picture of a panda bear on it. He's getting so smart!
