Sunday Evening at the Park

After a lazy afternoon, we packed a picnic and went to a local park. This was not the closest park but daddy knew it had a baseball field for brother! Fun was had by all...especially lil sis!










Love, Love that I captured this. She throws her arms up like this to run away when she's being naughty or silly. Lots of smiles go with this run!




As much as I want the cooler weather to come, I'm going to hate to cover these legs up! Having our first summer baby has been fun. I love those one year old legs!!!!




Here is our climber...she got this far up the slide solo!! She also has discovered chairs. I turned my back for seconds today and she was standing in a chair - yes standing! The other two never thought of this!!!




Daddy and brother had fun playing baseball!







Our precious girls...thank you God for these beautiful, sweet babies!!

Saturday Full of Fun!

What a beautiful and fun filled day we had.
It was a bit hard to go different ways but as they have gotten older this is how it has to be. Big sis attended a cheer clinic at her school ( this was so much fun last year, we just couldn't wait to support our cheerleaders again!) and brother had his second baseball game...so the girls went one way and the boys the other! She was super excited!
Getting ready!

When I arrived for the performance this is what I saw...oh my that's my girl up there!



She was so focused on keeping up!





Lil sis was more interested in the water bottle than the girls.


A great group of girls!






Big sis was posing with some friends from K when the cheerleaders came out...they were so sweet to stop and pose with them.
Go Knights!

1st Gymnastics

The gym where the older two have taken classes offers a fun (and super duper cheap!) class for one year olds. Well today was little sis first class. It is wide open free play on the mats and stuff. She had a ball!





The Foam Pit - the others LOVE this...she was a bit reserved today.



Not real sure about the slide.




Loved the wide open running!!



Brother enjoyed showing her a few things...the teacher were sweet letting him come out and play a little at the end of class. He will be in preschool for most of the classes.

Not too sure about the sticker...



but was sure about this pose!!

True Mudcats Fan

Daddy and brother heade out today for what they thought would be there last Mudcats game. Brother has gained so much knowledge from his passion for this team.
On the way the sky started looking dark...the game never happened but they were able to go into the stadium and look around. The wasn't a total wash. They got to play a little ball on a school field on the way home.
Good times for daddy and son!

Saturday Night FUN

Oh the fun we had visiting with old friends tonight.
Not too many pictures - 5 children and big sis was the oldest! Lil sis discovered cheese balls at the pool!
Do you think they are a little young for card games?
They all got quiet and this how daddy found them...clever!



Here's daddy and his college roommate....20 years after they moved into a dorm in Chapel Hill Chris moved into a house there!

First Baseball Game!

Brother was super excited about his first baseball (yes, its Tball but we call it baseball!) today. He did very well and was focused. We could also see some of daddy's teaching helping! Waiting his turn on the bench.

Ahhh....slushies.
Home run first time up...he was the last batter so he got to just follow around. However, it was an impressive hit. He was remembering what daddy had taught him...A: address the plate S: size up the ball & E: eyes on the ball. Look carefully and he's doing all three prefectly!!



Touching home!



Playing in the field, ready to catcht he ball....












or roll around to see how many grass stains he can get!




High five line after the game.


One tired, hot boy!



Team meeting after the game...these coaches are so patient!



Brother's buddy was on the other team so the lil sisters got to hang out for awhile.


Awww....sweet, I mean two tough guys!





Lil sis had a blast!! Can't wait until next week!

Going for a walk

Lil sis walks miles and miles everyday...well almost!
She just loves to push her babies around the house. I the cutest part is when she's stuck and has to back up. No fussing at all, she just simply starts walking backwards! Adorable!!

Baseball Player

Our boy has really turned to sports this past year. He just loves to watch, listen to and play. He has really taken to baseball this summer and tonight he got to begin playing. We found a local church with a fall program. He had a great time tonight at practice and is excited about his first game on Saturday!!
