Nathan: Preschool and Soccer

My little boy is growing up (tear)! Haha, I was talked into doing a co-op preschool with some ladies in my ward, so far so good--it hasn't been at my house yet though! Nathan was a little hesitant to go at first "I won't have any fun at all!" But he has enjoyed it every day.

He started Soccer today, and I was surprised at how well he kicked the ball and ran up and down the field. He even played goalie at one point. He was very hesitant to steal the ball from the other team ( he is very passive, so I guess I can understand), and he freaked out for a minute or two when he fell down and get knee'd in the head. Otherwise, he had a great time and started crying when the game was over because he wanted to play longer! I had to reassure him that he would get to play again, so no biggie!

On another note...yesterday I left Nathan sitting at the table eating a hot dog while I went to take a shower. Alex was already down for a nap, and I do that all the time, so I had no worries. When I got out of the shower, Nathan was NOWHERE to be found. I searched the house twice, the front and back yard twice, and then I really started to panic. I called my sis-in-law (Thanks Xan!) and ran to my neighbors house. My neighbor came over to help me look for him and as we were going through the house again, I moved some pillows that were strewn across my floor (which Nathan had been playing in earlier that day), and saw Nathan's foot sticking out. He had fallen asleep under the pillows while I was still in the shower--WHAT? he rarely takes naps these days-let alone at 12:30. Guess he is worn out from preschool? WOW, I was so relieved. SO scary!
