First off, I last wrote right around Nathan's 11th birthday! In lieu of birthday parties for the older two this year, we had family gatherings where we let the kids choose outings. Nathan did indoor skydiving with my family and went to a local theme park with Josh's. He enjoyed both!
Now some 11 year old stats!
---This year he has really begun those tween changes- he has grown and all that entails (deodorant! smelly room!)
---On the flip side it also means he has really matured, Josh and I can have a date night now when Preston is down for sleep that we know he will get Aaron to bed. That has been really nice for Josh and I not having to arrange babysitting for each thing. He has always been responsible.
---Very goal oriented. He wants to be a pilot when he grows up so everything is starting to come into consideration for that (will that look good on my resume?)
---This last school year he has played percussion in band. He seemed to enjoy it and has decided to continue in his 6th grade year.
----His 6th grade year! Where we live, this is the last year of elementary school. I can't believe we are already at this point. He has adjusted well to our new school this past year.
---Also has continued on into Boy Scouts (see above-does it look good on my resume?) It is even more active than Cub Scouts so he stays pretty busy. He has his first, all by himself, trip with scouts to San Diego the end of June.
---Just starting over the Summer he is taking a diving class. This boy plans to live in the pool all Summer long
