Trace's 10th Birthday

Michael and Trace

Our little man is 10, double digits!! Here's a little bit about our Tracer:

• Very athletic- Trace loves playing sports. Since moving to Florida, he has been focusing on soccer, but loves playing any team sport. 
• Video Games- Trace and his sisters got a Nintendo Switch for Christmas. It was supposed to be for all of them, but Trace is for sure the most excited about it. He asked for new headphones for his birthday so he can connect with his friends while playing. 
• STEM activities- Trace enjoys building things. He received the Nintendo Switch building packages. He is able to build them and then they connect to his Switch. He received one for Christmas too and loved putting it together.
• School- Trace's favorite part of school is lunch, recess and gym. He is good at math, but the others are his favorites.
• Friends- Trace has made a few new friends since moving to Florida. At school, he enjoys Caleb Carley and at soccer he likes Michael Lopasky. Back in Iowa, Trace remains friends with Zach Flender. 
• Food- this past year Trace has decided he no longer likes vegetables. He likes meat and sweets. 
• Thumb- Despite much effort, Trace continues to suck his thumb...

In order to celebrate Trace, we made him his favorite birthday cake and told him he can have a team pool party at our new house once we get settled. In the meantime, he spent his birthday weekend in Naples with Trevor at his soccer tournament. They ordered pizzas and had a pool party. He had fun celebrating his birthday with his team!
