Am I nuts?

Has anyone else just wanted to breakdown and cry? Wondering if it was just me?

Just because

Rich was cleaning upstairs, when he noticed Killi had grabbed his hat off the desk and put it on. She of course was jamming to dad's music. Rich is a sucker for his kids and especially taking pictures of them. So he quickly snapped this adorable girl's picture.

The First Game

Well here it is. The first official game, of our first official "sport", of my first child. What a milestone! Ish. Anyways, so we were running behind (shocking, I know) half way there Jackson realizes that he forgot his hat. As I recall it...."moooooommmmm I'll be so embarrassed if I am the only one without a hat, do you want me look dumb? Come on.....(moans continue throughout) please, I need it". So we were almost there. I drop him and Rich off at the front, and race home. 15 minutes there. Grab the hat. 15 minutes back. Half the game missed. I missed his first hit.
Rich got a couple cute pictures. Next time I will have the camera so you might actually see his face next time. Please enjoy the chain-link fence in the upper left. His coaches kept trying to get him to bat right, but my talented little stud, being what he is, kept left and hit them like a mad man! I must say it wasent as boring as I thought it would be. This is the youngest group that plays so it was actually very amusing. They would hit and not realize they had to run. Some danced in the outfield, while others had to be pushed off a base to make them run to the next. It was awesome! GOOD JOB JACKSON! And as he is telling everyone that will listen..."I didnt even get tagged!"

Jackson is AWESOME!

Jackson has been doing great in school. His teacher decided to move him from the regular spelling group to the advanced group. The first 3 weeks were not good at all. So bad that the teacher was going to put him back to the "orange group". He was very discouraged after the 3rd bad test because we had practiced like crazy. So I went and talked to his teacher and turns out he just gets really nervous. (gets it from his mom) Well after the last Friday coming home with tears in his eyes, we practiced again like crazy. And drumroll please.............100%!! Way to go Jackson!
To get Liv to stay out of his picture I told her I would take one of her. So there it is. Cute as a button and naked as usual. Can't get the kid to stay dressed!

T-Ball

What a good lookin' kid I have! Today was his first day of T-ball. Besides swimming lessons, this is the first sport he has officially played. He was so excited!
He wanted a lot of pictures taken because Rich was working and he wanted to show his dad how he looked.
But where ever there is a camera, there is Liv. I had to fight her to get a picture without her in it. So after a couple alone, in she came.
She wanted to pose like Jackson did for all of his pictures. Killi would not accept being left out.
Practice was fun, but at first I did not know if we were at the right field. I thought that we were at the younger kids practice. Besides Jacksons best buddy, he towered over all the little ones.
And there they are, the crazy 2! Jacob and Jackson! Lets take a moment to pity their teacher. 2 years in a row they have been able to be in the same class. They are even like 12 year old girls....they like talking on the phone....ALOT!
