We have a Giant in the house!! Grant started T-Ball practice last week, and was SO excited. He did some hitting:
Some throwing:
He was focused the whole practice, which is saying a lot!!
After practice every good player needs to take a nice long bath to relax those muscles:
When I went to say goodnight, this is what I found:
(if you could see the rest of his room you would realize that this is an AMAZING thing for him to do)
GO GIANTS!!
This is what I found standing at the top of the stairs the other night:
Don’t you remember wearing your dad’s t-shirt to bed as pajamas? I sure do!! Childhood memories………..
Just wanted to update on what Emma has been up to lately:
-Mad Science: Emma just got done with an 8 week after school program. Every week they learned about a different science term like static electricity, sound waves, optical illusions, and colors. They would then get to do a hands on experiment that they brought home. She had a really good time.
-Activity Days: Since Emma turned 8 years old she has been going to Activity Days at church twice a month. This is a group of girls from 8-11 years old who meet together. They learn about gospel related topics, do service for other people, and just have fun together. She is working on different goals to earn her “Faith In God” award.
-Indoor Soccer: Emma just finished another indoor soccer season with her team-The Cheetah’s!! They are going to play their semi-final game this weekend, and we hope to be attending the Finals next weekend. Her favorite position is Goalie and Defense.
5 year old boys have SO much energy!! I amazes me every day to see the amount of energy that this boy has. For the last 6 weeks Grant has been taking a gymnastic class and has LOVED every minute of it!!
All the parents sit behind a glass wall and watch. I think I found myself mouthing the words, “Slow down!!” every session. Because even after a day of preschool he would have a TON of energy in gym class. Like he couldn’t move to the next thing fast enough. He usually did the flips over the bars all by himself and not even wait for the teacher to help, because he was tall enough and wanted to move on. Can I get some of that energy in a bottle??
