Soccer

Landan started soccer last week. I forgot the camera at his first practice so I took some pictures today. He looked so good in his cleats and shin guards. He's pretty good if I do say so myself. He's always been pretty coordinated with a ball. His first game is this Sat. I can't wait. and guess what they decided for a team name.......
The Bolts. I'm sure Landan had a big say in that.








On another note, I also just signed Landan up for gymnastics. He's still having a lot of trouble at school. He's been hitting kids and once he cut a kid's hair with his scissors. He's having a really hard time adjusting. Gymnastics is a good sport for a kid with SPD because it gives him the sensory input to his muscles his body needs by pushing and jumping and falling and crashing. I'm also hoping it works his body more so he doesn't have so much energy to be hitting people. He starts next week and he's really excited. His Occupational Therapist said it was a great idea and she recommends it for all her SPD kids.

Yeah Landan! And my favorite part is the cleats being on the wrong foot. Kenny used to do that.
