Soccer & School Time!

Kadey started her first team sport yesterday! She is now a soccer player!! Hopefully she will make cousin Tina proud. lol

About an hour before practice last night Kadey had all her gear on and was ready to hit the field. We ate dinner in a hurry and headed to the soccer field (which is at Kadey's school so you know that was a BIG deal). Kadey's coaches are a husband and wife team (we went to HS w/ the husband) and there are 8 girls on the team. They play 3 on 3 soccer w/ no goalie. Watching the team practice was so much fun. They all look so tiny out there kicking the ball around. Kadey only knows one girl on the team so by the end of the season she should have some new friends. The coaches also have a little girls that is a little older than Addy so she has a friend too.

For being her first time out in the grass kicking the ball (since it has been FOREVER since we have had grass) she did pretty good. I was very proud of her, she listened to what the coaches said and did the best that she could. Being left handed she sometimes gets confused because everyone else is using their right foot to kick but like everything else she does she will figure it out.

When practice was over an hour later Kadey didn't want to leave but by the time we got to the truck she was telling us how tired she was. She must have been one sleepy girl because by 8pm she was asking if she could go to bed! She only does that when she is really tired.

School starts tomorrow (August 27th) and Kadey can't wait! We got to go into the school and meet her teacher yesterday. Kadey was VERY happy to see that one of her best friends from King's Kids ,Isabella, is not only in her class but sits at the same table as Kd. This year Kd and Hunter are in different classes but the classrooms are right next to eachother and I'm sure they will have recess and lunch together. I told her that she would still be able to get her Hunter fixes during those times. ;-)

This morning since she didn't have school (half the kindergarteners go today and half tomorrow for a "gentle start") so we sat on the couch at 7:45am and watched "her" school bus go by. We talked about how tomorrow we would wait out by the road and the bus would pick her up for school. I'm just scared that Addy is going to want to hitch a ride on the bus with big sissy. I don't think she is going to be happy about being left standing on the side of the road w/ mommy. But she will learn to live w/ it eventually.

I just can't believe my baby is now going to school. They grow up so fast!
