Ethan 9-year-old interview and stats

Ethan is a mover and a shaker.   He speeds through life at a dizzying pace that is sometimes hard to keep up with, both his brain and his feet.  He is a bright kid that loves to be challenged and averages 15,000 steps a day. He loves sports. If he see's a ball of any kind he loses all impulse control and can't seem to stop himself from kicking, bouncing or throwing it despite being in the house (and having been told many, many times to keep the balls outside.) He is a kid that can be off task playing, drawing, building, etc. all morning but somehow when I say it is time to go he is still the first one ready and in the car.  He leaves a tornado of mess behind him (socks stuffed randomly everywhere, books on the floor, lunchbox hidden under the couch) but also jumps up to help whenever called. He loves to be in the middle of everything; so much energy and so much fun.
Height: 57 inches (98%)
Weight: 75 lbs 4 oz (88%)
Sleeping: 10 hours (8:30 pm-6:30 am) Asleep within minutes of his head hitting the pillow, but even when we get to bed to late he never sleeps in.
Hobbies: Everything.  He is a kid that does thrives on a full schedule.  He is currently doing track practice before school, and also after school has piano (Monday), soccer (Tuesday/Thursday), glee club (Wednesday), volleyball (Wednesday/Saturday) and cub scouts (Wednesday).  He has really taken off with reading this year and wakes up early to sit on the couch to read before he needs to get ready.  He loves to be outdoors.  When he's not playing sports he's catching lizards, or crickets, or frogs.
