Nana....YELLOW CARD

So, tonight was the 2nd session of Grant's "soccer" night. He did much better than last week, as there are no bumps, bruises or black eyes!! It was pretty much the same as last week: red light green light, stomping on bubbles, kicking over cone towers, kicking the soccer balls around, etc. He loves the interaction with the other kids....UNTIL HE SEES HIS NANA! It caused complete chaos tonight, to the point that my mom had to come down onto the soccer field to get Grant refocused on the task at hand. I love the program, we are doing it with our good friends Stacy, Chad and Avery, so it makes it even more fun. From now on....Grandparents upstairs and to the left, where my kid can't see you watching!!!! Nice weather is on its way, so more fun pictures to follow!

T.G.I.M.

Thank for this weekend is finally over...we have been running around all weekend with various family events! First, my very first second cousin (not to confuse anyone) got married on Saturday. Then my Aunt Judy turned 60 this weekend followed by second cousin Stella turning 1. There was a double celebration for both which was great! Stella lives in California so we don't get to see her often enough. This could be the first time in my life that I am glad for Monday!!!
Last week we started Little Kickers which is an indoor soccer program for 18-24 month olds. I flew solo the first time, as Daddy was on the train so I do not have pictures. I do however have a classic Grant story. Nana and Papa were there to watch Grant in his first sporting event of chasin bubbles and knocking over cone towers. This is at an indoor facility so one side is all glass. Grant got excited when he saw Nana and Papa and attempted to run over to greet them only to...SMACK!!! crash face first into the glass wall, the poor little guy thought he could run right through it....so we have our first sports injury, an enormous knot and bruise, smack dab in the middle of the forehead!! Other than that, it was quite successful! Pictures of this weeks events to follow.....

Good Night!

Wore out

So, Mike decided that Grant needed a "big kid" 4 wheeler. Next thing I know, our munchkin is manuevering through the fields back behind our house on his own. Surprisingly, he's really good at it. Mike has cut him a path and Grant can twist and turn (all while laughing uncontrollably) through it all like he's been doing this for years. The other day, Mike caught this shot of our big kid after a long day's worth of riding and laughing. We thought we should share it!!
