More on baseball

By
This morning, while Jack and I walked to the bus stop to get to the Y, Jack was telling me that he and Spencer were going to be together when they were grown up. The way he presented this info was priceless.

We were talking about driving and how when Mommy drives, Daddy helps the boys and when Daddy drives, Mommy helps. Then Jack takes the idea of being together and says "since Spencer and I are going to be together when we are grown up..."(then I lost a few words). I prompt him to continue on why he and Spence will be together. Jack says, "well, Spencer wants to be a baseball player when he grows up. And I want to be a baseball player when I grow up. So I figure we'll be together." Then he goes on to tell me that he's going to be #2 after Derek Jeter who is his favorite player. Spencer is going to be #34, after Brian McCann.

This week, the boys both want to be baseball players and even better they want to be on the same team.

Spencer Time

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
