Activities

In my last post I mentioned dinosaurs and monkeys....

WELL, Curious George came to Hickory and Poppy took Thomas to meet him at Barnes and Noble- once I get ahold of Poppy's iPhone I'll post a picture. I thought for sure soccer practice would be canceled and we'd get to meet the curious monkey too- but apparently 3 and 4 year olds soccer is very serious and even with all the rain and mud we practiced at 9 A.M. sharp.

We all met back up at the Science Center to check out the dinosaur exhibit- Gram made the boys these CUTE matching shirts. Poppy helped Chatham make it through the dinosaur room and then it was on to bigger and better things. The golf ball room was definitely a BIG hit!

Birthday Weekend

We celebrated my mom and sister's birthdays this past weekend. It was busy to say the least. All the cousins were there.....

Fun in the Sun

The weather here has been beautiful!!! Mid-seventies and GREAT for playing outside. We have started soccer, so we try to take Chatham outside and practice, but football is definitely more his cup of tea.
Devin was inside with Harper and I was sitting at the patio table just watching- this kid can entertain himself for hours outside.
He managed to play an entire game of catch by-him-self, that takes talent!

Then we played the body part game- where you call out a body part and you have to touch the ball with that part.....head! knee! hiney!

I LOVE this face!!!! And of course I couldn't leave Miss Harper out of a blog post! She is seven weeks old today! She slept through the night (7 1/2 hours) on Wednesday night...but sadly it was a one time thing. Now we're back to up every three hours. She's in size one diapers, wore her first pair of shoes this week, and eats 3-4 oz. at each feeding. She is such a snuggler, and loves to be in her carseat. She is a pro shopper and has slept through every meal out I've had.

Soccer Mom

Chatham has entered the world of sports, and he loves it! Every Saturday morning we head over to the local YMCA and hit the field.

There are six other kids on the team, and three teams total- so there will be games! I didn't think I'd be so excited to be a soccer mom! Chatham loved getting to run around with his friends. We saw Caden, Adrian, and Anna- and Anna is even on Chatham's team!

The funniest part of practice was when the coach told the kids to "dribble the ball to the goal" and Chatham picked up the soccer ball and tried to dribble it like a basketball. We have a diverse athlete on our hands!!!
