  1. I just bookmarked your blog and read back through it from the start. Love it. I have a question on this one--what is chopping? Sounds painful for the soccer ball. Oh, and congrats on taking a prize on the climbing wall! It sounds like you're having a good time so far!

    2. You can tell how little I know about soccer that I didn't know that was a typo.

  3. For a long time, chipping was Felix's favorite thing to practice. Lately he likes to shoot for power--I can really feel it when he smacks one into me. (Sometimes I duck!) And we saw a really nice chipped goal on Sunday, when we saw AS Roma (an Italian team) play Zaglebie Lubin (a Polish team) at Wrigley Field. Usually the Cubs play baseball there, so it was very strange to see soccer instead!

    All this soccer talk makes me wish our families could play together...I love hearing all of your updates, Oscar, so please keep them coming.

  5. They both had great seasons last year, but we've hardly played this summer. It has been so HOT in Chicago that we don't feel like running around. But they both love to play and work hard to get better. I can't wait for fall...
