Opening Day for Little League

Saturday was OPENING DAY for little league.  First each team took team and individueal pictures.  We will get those back in 4 weeks.  Then each team participated in a hit-a-thon.  Then they had opening ceremonies, which we skipped :)  Carter was so dang cute.  I can't believe how handsome he looks in his jersey.
Carter is on the Lugnuts.  Their mascot is an elephant, and the elephants trunk is scrunched into a bolt.
The team mom for Carter's team had their names put on the back of their jerseys.   There is #2...Carter Rae...getting ready to hit for the Branham Hills Lugnuts!
He smashed the ball.  There were circles on the field and and they won pries if the got the ball in a circle.  Carter came really close, but didn't make it.  He was pretty bumbed out.  I was going to take him to ice cream anyway but he has forgotten about it now.

This is Carter's team in the dugout all lined up.  I wasn't really supposed to be in there taking pictures, but I snuck in.  The boys are so excited to start their baseball season.  Today is there first game.  I promised in my last blog there would be quite a few baseball pictures.  There are 2 games and possibly a practice every week.  We are breathing, eating, and sleeping baseball right now, and none of us could be happier.

I don't have any pictures.

I feel like I haven't taken pictures for a long time. We have been really busy though. Carter had his first dental appt. I know...I know...how could I have let him go that long? Well, he had two cavities. I already knew he had them. I have a mirror and explorer at home and I found them over a year ago. He was really good at the dentist. He hated the toothpaste but loved the "vacuum" He goes back for his filling soon. Carter is also playing little league this year. There will be plenty of little league pictures because we will being doing little league 3 days per week! I know we are crazy
Chase has been doing so well with potty training. I can't believe how easy he was. We are almost done with diapers at night even. I love being diaper free. Chase also loves preschool. Everyone is always really impressed that he goes without even the slightest fight. The high school kids are really good with him too. He loves to paint!
Danie is studying hard for part 2 and 3 of his national boards. I am really proud of him. He is doing so well in school. He is a great chiropractor. It is nice to have him at my fingertips. He is so patient with me and all my aches and pains...thanks huney!
I am in school full-time! I am very proud of myself also. It isn't easy going full-time with 2 kids at home, but I am enjoying myself. I am even taking a guitar class. I won't say I can play the guitar yet, but I am learning. One day I will post a song of me playing....at the end of the semester.
