I spent the past week in Nederland visiting my grandmas, and boy did we have a good time! When I got there on Monday, Nannie let me open my birthday present early. It was a Lightning McQueen Scooter with matching helmet, gloves, pads and bell. It didn't take me long before I was cruising down the driveway and all through the house.
On Tuesday, Nannie set up a slip and slide, bought me a soccer ball cookie cake and invited everyone over for an early celebration. I loved getting to see everyone, and I loved playing around in the water.
I spent some time with my great-grandparents, got to meet my new cousin Levi, and played trains, puzzles, and badmiton with Uncle Lawrence!
On Thursday, I went with Mommy, Nana, Liz, John, Aunt Jenny and the girls to the San Jacinto monument and Battleship Texas. Poppy met us out there, and we went all the way to the top of the tower! I loved looking out the windows.
It was very hot at the battleship, but I enjoyed seeing how big everything was. I pretended to shoot the guns, walked around the ship, and played around on the deck. I sunk your battleship!!
After seeing the tourist sites, we ate at the Monument Inn where we watched all the huge boats go by. We thought that was pretty awesome! On the way home, Nana "drove" us over the water on the ferry. It was a fun and exhausting day! On Saturday night, we went to Allie's wedding. My cousins and I tore up the dance floor at the reception. I boogied the night away, and even got a dance with the beautiful bride!
Now only a few more days until my 3rd birthday!!!!
I love kicking the ball, and I am not afraid to push my way through the crowd. I haven't scored a goal yet, but I know my day will come. 
I love playing and I especially love having my dad as my coach! He makes sure we all have a fun time.
I am also very excited that my new house is really taking shape. We go out several times a week to check the progress, and it is moving right along. 
I love walking into my new room, and I've already decided that when I start getting trophies, they will go in my window! 
For now, I am most excited about having an upstairs. I was thrilled when I got to go up the staircase to my new playroom! 
I don't have any pictures, but Daddy and I went to Nederland for a short visit. I had a wonderful time seeing all my relatives. I went swimming with the boys, watched Ryan's baseball game (and cheered REALLY loud), played golf with Nannie at MaMa and PaPa's, and played some lacrosse with Uncle Daniel. I can't wait to go back again very soon!
Saturday was a huge day for me. We started the morning off with my first official soccer game!! 
Daddy got us together for some stretching and warm-ups. We were ready to go! 
The other team was older and more experienced than us, but we still did a really great job. I had so much fun, but boy was it tiring running up and down the field. We did have the best crowd out there though, and even some of my teachers from school came out to watch. I was lucky enough to have Nannie, Aunt Jenny, Uncle Troy, Kaly, Hannah, Campbell, and of course my parents cheering me on!
One game down and five to go. Later that afternoon, I went to Jack's birthday party. It was a blast, and I even did the zipline (without the bucket) all by myself! I sang all the songs and played all the games, including a killer baseball hit, and have you ever seen a better icing moustache?
Saturday afternoon, we went to Hannah's soccer game and then finally just hung out at home. I had more fun than I could stand! Today Daddy and I headed down to Nederland for a few days, and I'm looking forward to spending some time with all my family there. I'll miss Mommy, but I promised her we'd be back soon!
As for our new house, earlier this week we drove by to find a slab. I wanted to take a picture in my new room. I asked if we could sleep there, but Mommy said not yet. Bummer! 
This weekend I brought my camera out to snap a few photos of the framing. By the end of the week, that part should be done. I can't wait for new house to be ready. 
Swimming lessons are going pretty great. I really like my teacher, and this week I accomplished jumping in, turning around and swimming to the side all by myself! Best of all, I mastered the back float. I can finally do something that Dad can't do! I still don't like to get my ears wet, but I decided to accept that it just has to happen sometimes. 
I aced all my objectives at school this past week, and I even got to bring Monkey to show and tell! Other than that, it has been soccer practice and party time. I have been to three parties in the past two weekends! Seeing my friends outside of class is awesome, and the parties have been a blast. 
Another fun week ahead!
Instead of going into my classroom for drop-off, Mommy leaves me to eat breakfast in the cafeteria. It was hard for Mommy to leave me in there, but I like being a big boy! Friday was my first ever Show and Tell at school. The letter was "W" and the theme was "school', so I brought a whiteboard and presented it to the whole class. 
On Wednesday I started my new Super 
My friends from school are on my team, and Daddy is our coach. It doesn't get much better than that! We are the Dynamos, and we will be the red team. I've already requested to have jersey #1, just like my Dad. Practice was a little crazy, but it will be so much fun. 
Yesterday afternoon I suited up and headed out to Kennedy's birthday party at the pool. I jumped in a million times, went down the big slide and swam around a bit without any 
It is so fun seeing my friends outside of class, and I have another party today as well. I think this year is going to be the best!
Goodbye 12032 Del Rio Drive.....
.......hello 1441 Cedar Ridge Dr! 
I am patiently waiting to become a Prosper Eagle =) 
In the meantime, we are homeless! Aunt Jenny and Uncle Troy were kind enough to let us move into their guest room, so I get to see my cousins every single day. It has been an adjustment, but I know we are going to have tons of fun. Tomorrow is the first day of school in my new room. I am skipping a room and going up to Suite 450, and I get to start computer classes. It will be interesting to have new teachers since Ms. Julie and Ms. Sarah have been with me for so long. I'm also skipping a level in swimming, and I'm looking forward to meeting my new instructor later this week. Only a few weeks until soccer season kicks off, and I already found out that my soccer team will be red and black...woohoo! It has been an awesome summer full of vacations, visitors, and craziness but it's time for another school year to begin!
Mom made me some Mickey Mouse pancakes for breakfast, and then Nannie, Mommy and I went to the mall to see Winnie the Pooh. We had a brief evacuation because something happened to the fire alarm, but once I finally got to watch the movie, I really liked it. I got to open a few more presents that evening, including some cars, an Elmo backpack I REALLY wanted, a Thomas bathing suit and a cool Cars umbrella. I love getting new stuff!
On Saturday morning, I had an awesome Thomas the Train birthday party out at the splash park. Lots of my school friends came, as well as the girls and a few other kids. We played on the playground, splashed at the spray park, ate Thomas cake, and I opened lots of presents. It was so much fun! 
Monday I went for my three year old checkup and got an A+ across the board. I was 29 lbs (25%-50%) and 3 ft tall (25%). Along with turning three, there is a lot more change on the way. My parents sold our house, so we are packing up. I am so excited that we are building a new house, but I know I will have to be patient. We may even be living with Aunt Jenny, Uncle Troy and the girls while it is being built. Can you imagine the adventures we will have? There should be some exciting blogs to come throughout the next year!
