Leo is 11!!

Wow! Leo is 11 and will be heading to middle school this summer. Incredible! Leo is a smart, funny, curious kid. This past year he played two seasons of baseball through the Town of Cary recreation league. He read the Harry Potter series in its entirety, the Percy Jackson series 10 times, plus many other books. Leo skipped a grade in math and is taking math 6+ asynchronously now, which isn't the greatest, in his opinion. Leo loves to climb trees, play video games with Jason and Luke, and hike in the mountains. In the summer, Leo likes to go to the pool and play soccer in our yard. Leo was pumped to get his XBox set up for XBox live so that he and Luke can talk and play together several times a week.

Leo got into the magnet middle school Moore Square in downtown Raleigh, and we are excited to see what the next year holds for him!

Here are some birthday pictures. (Leo does NOT like to have his photo taken! And he pretty much only wears black all the time.)
