Soccer star

Dylan's about half way through his first season, he definitely has some natural talent.  Probably the smallest kid out there and he's scoring a goal a game -- last week D scored his team's only goal.  I noticed he has quite the eye for spotting offensive opportunities, all of Dylan's goals have been similar -- he boots the ball threw a pack of kids and then bolts on a breakaway to score.  On top of that, Dylan also gets back on defense to clear the ball out on close plays -- great all out awareness while he's out on the field.  It's been a lot of fun watching him learn the game.

Little D is 5!

5 years old!  After weeks of pulling together his Amazon Wish List, the day finally arrived.  All gifts were sports related (4 of 5 linked to hockey).  He's very excited to be one year older!

Back to school

Dylan's "Star of the Week" poster.  He finished it up today, in the spotlight for 9/8 - 9/12.

First week down, Dylan's first day in Kindergarten and smooth transition for both.  Not much to report, I would say separation anxiety was not an issue with D, he basically took off once he got to class.  Madison is back at class with a lot of familiar faces, first time in about 4 years since she's been in the same back-to-back school (lots of bouncing around).
