T Ball Game

Last Thursday, Noah had his first t-ball game.  He loved it and it was so cute to watch all of these little kids hitting, running and trying to field the ball!  It was a beautifully overcast evening.  :)  I am not a hot and humid type of person so the shade was welcome!  Here are a few pictures from his first game!

The game started with some warm up push-ups :)

and a little catch...

Checking for rain...this is one of my favorites :)

Ready for a grounder

So, did I mention it was hot?  Today it was hot and tomorrow is it supposed to be hotter.  I am a wimp in the heat and my son cannot get enough!  However, he sweats in the winter so when he came in from playing yesterday morning, I snapped these sweaty shots...




Gross.

Until next time,
Stacy

Is anyone still here?

Well, a bog post every six months or so seems sort of crazy! Wondering if anyone is still reading this...if you are, I thank you and I am amazed! Life with two little kids is full of fun but leaves little time for blogging. Hoping that I can find a time to get this back into my regular schedule. I think that many of you know me on Facebook and so you know most of what is going on with us.

We are doing well. Noah just turned five at the beginning of June and he survived his 5 year old shots! he is headed to kindergarten in the fall. I cannot believe that he is that old already! He continues to love being outside, riding his bike, playing with trucks, trains and his newest love is Legos. He is good at them and he amazes me when he sits down to complete the model with very little help from mom or dad!

Chloe is doing well, too. She will be 3 in early September. She is starting to talk more and more. Although she continues to be hard to understand at times, everyday gets a little easier! She loves following Noah around, playing in the kitchen (real and pretend), looking at books and trying to read books to us. It is too cute...she tries so hard to get the book in her hand to show it to us as she "reads." Just like she sees at daycare!

Life is good for Brandon and me, too. I am home for the summer and keep wishing for the days to slow down a little.

Here are a few recent pictures of the kids...for those of you who have continued to read this far, let me know if there is anything that you want to see pictures of! Otherwise, I'll post a few past pictures as I think of things and will just carry on from here!

Until next time,
Stacy

Noah - July 2012
It's a little blurry, but this is a Lego Airplane he built in one evening and part of a morning.
Chloe - July 2012
So, the kids were playing in Noah's room and he found a pen and drew "mommy" on their feet.  He has NEVER done this before...I think I am in trouble now....  :)
