Tristan T-ball follies.

Saturday Mar 7TH was opening day for Baseball. The first day in his Baseball uniform. He looked like such a big boy, growing up so fast. Then we see him next to his team mates and see that he is still so small. He is #1 which dad tells mom means that it is the smallest jersey on the team. Well that was no lie. Tristan is the youngest and small player on his team. He was the first player up to bat and he ran to first. When the next player hit the ball and he ran to second, then third and then home. He played outfield and pitcher, no pitching of course, and catcher. Mom missed this part but one time as he ran from first to second he fell on his face. He got out at first base, and said that he had a great time. Although they don't really keep score at this age, his team had more runs. Allyson and Gavin played at the playground all day. They had so much fun and can not wait for another game.

The things kids do and say.

Well last week just after I plugged in my curling iron Gavin reached up as I was telling him that it was "HOT". Which at 3 1/2 he knows what "HOT" means, well in true boy form he reached up any ways and got his finger. Luckily as I said I had just plugged it in so it was not very hot yet. So on his way to day care he asked Dad that "When Jesus comes will he make it feel better?". Mark had fun with that one.
Tristan as we well know has bad dreams. He ends up on the floor next to mom. One day he woke up and looked up at me and said "Mom, I did not have a bad dream, I stayed in this world". What can you say to that?
Allyson got out of bed and made it all by herself. She was so proud, I thought it was great. Well it has not happened since. Oh well. With dance we have had to buy some leotards. Well she also wanted a tutu. So we bought her a ballerina skirt, but she calls it her tattoo. We get a kick out of it.

Allyson had her first Dance Class

Well it was on Feb 20Th. She had such a great time. Dad got to take her since mom did not get off work in time. She was all equipped with her Tap shoes and Ballet slippers. She had her leotard on and off she went. Dad described quite a picture with her panties hanging out. She was the only one without a tutu, but she did not care. She danced her little heart out. She came home that night and showed us everything she learned. Mom will take her this week so we will get some pictures. Dad does not carry the camera with him. Her dance class is once a week for an hour.

First day of practice.

Well it is finally here. Tristan had his first day of T-Ball practice on Feb 17TH. He had a blast. He told mom that he hit the ball once but not the next time. That he ran to first base and then stopped. Then he ran to second base and stopped. He ran to third and stopped then he got to run to home base. "It was so cool". He said that he caught a ball, but that one other kid could not catch at all. Dad said that he did very well but needs some help. We can't wait until his first game.

Presidents Day February 16

Well mom had the day off and daycare was closed. Dad had to work but came home for lunch. So we spent a very active day at home. Everyone got along very well I might add. Top it off with a cold and rainy day and you have to make up your own fun. And that we did. We did watch some TV but we played with play dough (what a blast) for almost an hour. Later in the day as Gavin slept and Mom was getting some games together for Family night, Tristan and Allyson made up their own fun. They got out every blanket from the cupboard Gavin joined in once he woke up and this is what I found in the toy room.
