October has been a busy month for the Mueting Family.
Marie has been doing tumbling class once again. She is working hard on her flexibility and core strength and it is so much fun to see how she is changing. She is also busy with soccer. Once again her Dad is her coach. They moved up a level (U8) and are doing very well! She is not afraid to chase down that ball, block it, dive on the ground, or take it down the field for a goal.
Bennett is enjoying his first season of U6 soccer and mom is enjoying being his coach along with our good friend, Mara.
We have come along way from just learning how to kick and stop the ball to working on dribbling the ball down the field, passing the ball, and scoring goals.
Brooks has also had a busy month...he is growing rapidly and has taken a turn towards those sneaky and terrible twos.
He loves to play with Bennett and Marie and insists on keeping up with them. He copies nearly everything that is big brother does. He is rough and tough, loves to run as fast as he can, ride his bikes and scooters down the driveway, throw the football, kick the soccer ball, and has taken a huge interest in books and Mickey Mouse.
Brooks also has been known to carry these cows and tractors all around the house, into the van, and even into the grocery store. He loves to play farm and dad's new grass seed was the perfect place to play.
Marie was also able to participate in a cheerleading camp put on by the Spirit Lake High School Cheerleaders. She enjoyed the event and especially liked spending some extra time with one of our favorite babysitters.
Recently we took some time out of the busy schedule to enjoy the outdoors and I simply watched the kids play and took pictures. It was a beautiful, crisp fall day and their imaginations went wild.
Truly a blessed day.
