Soccer 2015

When we first moved here we were so excited to start soccer and I'm pretty sure I blogged about it every week. Well five years later its no longer at the most exciting thing going on around here, but it was Graham's first year playing so I thought I should document it. We lucked out with the best coach ever! He is from Columbia and loves soccer more than anyone I've ever known. He was great with the kids but also taught the kids a ton. Graham went from doing cartwheels down the soccer field to scoring goals. He wasn't the star player but he improved a lot over the last year. This team was so great and wanted to stay together for years to come so we are really sad to be leaving them for Dallas. Soccer practice was really fun this season because it was the same time as three other friends so it was great to hang out with friends while Graham practiced.

Graham hanging out with his buddy Ian. Or Bryce, but I'm pretty sure its Ian.

Graham with Coach Santiago. He is the BEST!

Funky Sayings

When I asked Graham who was in charge today he raised his hand and said, "me"
As I was putting Graham down for a nap he looked up and said, "Me not tired EVER." Nice try.
On the way home from a mother/son activity I was asking Devin a few questions and I guess he had enough because he finally said, "Mommy can you not talk to me right now?"
When Shawn walked passed the kids coloring today he overheard Devin say, "I"m coloring a machine and it poops, and poops." Boys will be boys I guess.
Caroline says to me today, "How about we go shopping just the two of us while dad is on vegitation." Me, "You mean vacation?" Caroline, "Oops, yeah."
Yesterday Caroline asked if Graham was made of plastic. In response Devin said, "No he's made of boy."
As we were sitting down to enjoy some chocolate chips Devin said, "I like chocolate chips, they make me feel good."
Devin was in his room for a time out. When I opened the door to talk to him he ran over slammed the door in my face and said, "I'm not ready to talk yet." He's good at expressing his feelings.
A few days ago when I called Devin by his full name (Devin Michael) he looked at me and said, "No me Michael, me Devin." He's funny.
When I told Devin he needed to share his toy with Caroline he replied, "But I love it." Apparently he thought that meant he didn't have to share it. Sorry kid.
