Baseball

Wow, Chase is getting a lot of face time today.

Baseball season started while I was on my vacation from blogging.  Chase has been waiting to play baseball for many years.  It has been his fav sport since he was 18 months old using a Wendy's straw as a bat...playing imaginary baseball.  

This year he finally got his shot! BUT the search for baseball pants that fit a almost five year old that is the size of a two year old was NOT FUN.  I finally pulled out my sewing machine and altered a pair my mom mailed me.  Don't look to close...it isn't cute.  I would finish altering them...but my sewing machine needle broke...and I am too lazy to buy another one...plus...the season is almost over now.

And Taylor finally learned to sit up! This is one of her first times.

(I am pretty sure all of Taylor's first will be discovered while she is watching the boys play sports.)

Cousins come to visit.

Jenn and her kids came down for spring break.  We accomplished a lot of hanging out.  Then we took the kids to the zoo.  I could write a novel...but I don't want to.

Really children....The giant man eating clam was not that bad.  We just wanted ONE good picture of all of you.  (back...Garrett, Oakley, Taylor, Charity.  Front...Carter, Kyller, and Chase)

ENOUGH SAID

Chase's Young Love

Chase has fallen in love, but he would never admit it.  You know when little kids pick on someone because they like them so much.  That used to be Chase with Lily.  He would always say she gave him a headache...lol...I have no idea where he gets that from.

Then one day it switched.  NOW, he likes to get her all dressed up in her princess costumes.  They have become pretty good friends.  Here they are featured...dancing.  I do have a video of him dipping her and then falling on top of her.  AWE!  Young love!

Principal's Breakfast

Carter earned Principal's Breakfast again this year.  It is a pretty big honor, and we are really proud of him.  His teacher says he is a delight to have in class.  He really works hard, and he is kind to everyone!

This is Carter's lovely teacher.  She has been great for him.  She is truly a kind person.  I think she was the perfect first grade teacher for Carter.  He loves to please her.

Let's see, Let's see....Here is the beginning of trying to catch up.

Beautiful baby around six months...I think!

Something I don't mind loosing!

Lately I have been loosing all sorts of things. It is always at very inconvenient times.

I lost my keys....as always.

I forgot the boys baseball bag at the park...with Daniel's $300 mit in it.

I have now lost 8 pacifiers. That is VERY frustrating. I keep having to buy them while I am out because I have a screaming baby!

I have lost cash :( (it is hard to buy pacifiers without your cash)

I have lost Daniel and I's meal plan...that I keep sitting out on the counter.

I have lost one garage door opener.

I have lost my usb cord to my camera.

AND

I

HAVE

LOST

15 POUNDS!

The last item I don't ever plan to see again!  I feel so good!  It is a great accomplishment.  I actually hit the 15 pound mark almost 3 weeks ago.  YEAH!!!!  I have lost my steam though.  I really need some motivation to loose some more....YES, I still have more to loose, but I am about half way.  I have kind of gotten off the band wagon because I feel good now.  (Sorry, no pictures for 15 more pounds)  The problem with that is a have committed to running the St. George Marathon this year.  I NEED TO BE GETTING READY.  I an effort to get myself going I am publishing it for all to read.
