All Grown Up

Pleasant Grove Soccer Fall 2010

Evan has always had really good speech for his age. He says all of his letters correctly, unlike Lily and her cute "L's" that sound like "Y's". She is getting better, but why did we name her Lily that has 2 L's? Anyways, one funny thing Evan has always said is he calls the remote control a gmote. We have never corrected him because we think it is so cute - we are his parents of course! Well the other day Rob asked Evan to hand him the gmote. Evan looked at Rob and said, "Dad, it is a remote, not a gmote". That was a sad day in our lives! Our little boy was all grown up! We asked him how he knew it was called a remote (we always say gmote in our house) and Evan said his friend Brock corrected him and told him it is called a remote. Those friends, they ruin everything!


Evan loves to play goalie

Evan has been playing on a soccer team since August. He was really enjoyed it and is quite the little player. Most of the other parents of kids on the team probably call him the ball hog, but we are proud of him! For the first few games all he wanted to do was play goalie. Of course he had to take turns but his favorite part of the game was when he was goalie. These last few games he has enjoyed playing the field and "hogging" the ball. Evan is pretty competitive and one of the older ones on his team so that means the other kids don't really care if he hogs the ball and scores all of the goals for his team. His game last week he scored 3 goals!! Though they don't keep score so I am not suppose to be counting - but when it is your kid you do keep track so you can brag!
