Bryce Update


Here is a quick update on Bryce. He is 7 now and will be 8 in September. I can not believe my baby is almost 8. Crazy! He is finishing up first grade and has had a great year. He is doing well with reading and loves math. He is adding 3 digit numbers, telling time, counting money and more. Science is his passion right now and he wants to be a scientist when he grows up, but is unsure of what field right now. He loves looking up info on animals online (anacondas are the latest interest after seeing one at the zoo). He writes his own books, complete with illustrations, both fiction, like Pirates, and non fiction, about penguins. He has a very good memory and can remember things from when he was just a couple years old.


He has been doing karate and loves it! I think he is going to do a more advanced tae kwon do in the fall. He also wants to play a sport at the Y in the fall, but is undecided on which one. The Y here offers baseball, soccer, basketball, and flag football every season so we will see. He thought he would do soccer, then basketball, then football, then baseball with the seasons, but now has more options! He just lost his third tooth (first top tooth) and that is what he is showing in the picture. He was very excited and did not freak out about the blood this time! He was having leg pains and the dr wanted to do bloodwork due to Mia's issues and all the bruises he had on his shins, but everything came back normal and they think it is just growing pains. As if he needs to keep growing!


He is a great big brother to Mia and is usually pretty sweet and patient with her. He is looking forward to having a baby brother and says he will "have to watch out for 2 kids now". Sweet boy!
