Courtney actually started last week, but Dylan started today so I decided to wait to post after they had both started. Sending kids to a new class is never easy for me. I still had a hard time when I left Courtney each day this last week. But today was harder because I had never left Dylan before.
He was getting cold feet about going all morning. He just kept saying he wanted me to stay with him. But I promised him he would get to play the Wii if he went to school so he decided that he could do it. I was feeling fine all the way up to giving him his hug and kiss goodbye. It was at this point that he was fine and not worried at all that I was leaving. But I got all emotional and had to hurry out of the room before he saw me starting to cry.
Dylan also started soccer for the first time a few weeks ago. I videotaped his game, which was pretty fun, despite the last minute time change. I will get pictures next time. He really likes going, especially since Clint ended up volunteering to coach his team. It's been great for them to get to spend so much time together going to practice and talking about how to play. Courtney starts up ballet next week. Its been a pretty busy time getting all ready for the start of school, I'm just glad we are finally in the swing of things. I had another doctor appointment today and the baby is right on schedule. Look out November here we come!
Here's our little soccer player. He really enjoys being on a team and getting to play outside no matter the weather. He played his second game on Saturday and he showed a lot of improvement in just one week. Each of the players on his team are such characters, it has been fun to get to know them. I think that Clint has been enjoying the challenge of coaching, despite being nervous in the beginning. I never played soccer either, but having Dylan involved sure brings back memories of doing sports at a young age for me. Dylan is selling candy bars for a fundraiser and I swear they are exactly the same brand that we sold every year for T-ball.
