Pretty cool...

Happy Birthday James! He got today off (first birthday off in forever) and we had breakfast and got to hang out and just be together. It was nice. A lot of fun.

Jamie had a game tonight and did awesome. He went 3 for 3 with a double and two singles. He also got the ball a lot in the outfield and threw really well today. They won and Jamie got a game ball! So we're writing the date on, Jamie's writing his name on it, and we'll put it on his shelf of keepsakes.

Jamie also got invited to his first two birthday parties (that aren't family-related) this week. They're both boys on his baseball team and they're on the 26th and 27th of April. So that weekend will be extra busy (because he has a baseball game early on the 26th).

I'll let everyone know how it goes, but Jamie is really excited about the parties-tomorrow we go and get their gifts.

Take care.

Not much...

Okay, so there really isn't much going on. Baseball continues for Jamie, and he's having so much fun. It's definately his favorite thing to do.

Wednesday is James' 29th birthday, but we're not doing much of a celebration due to his working and Jamie has a game at 6pm. I will at least have a cake though:)

Oh, and it looks like James will be done with his turnaround on Friday. Only 36 days straight of 14-16 hour days...yeesh.

Oh, Jamie is growing again. We went and bought him Size 4 in little boys jeans today. It was pretty weird. And last night he stood on his bed and I had to look slightly up at his face. It was also pretty weird (thinking about how in the not-to distant future I'll have to look up with him standing on the ground).

We also fill out paperwork for Kindergarten this month. I think his school year starts on August 25th. Pretty exciting I think.

Anyhow, if anything worth telling happens, I shall update here. Hope this finds everyone well.

Our new projects

So this will be short, because it's almost dinner time. But Jamie is very much into new projects lately. Recently we planted two alyssum plants, one strawberry plant, and a zinnia. They were the dollar ones at Target. Anyhow, the alyssum is growing and you'd think fireworks were going off outside! He is so thrilled. He is currently sitting outside to 'watch the plants grow because it's so exciting!' In fact, he just got on his flip flops. Guess he and Evan have the same catchphrase! :)

We also completed (well, almost) a puppet show theater. We used a cardboard box and I made some red curtains and we made three interchangeable backgrounds. Anyhow, I shall post pictures of his puppet shows once the glue has dried and he begins the shows!

James is almost done with his turnaround (yeah!) so that means mucho family time and father-son time.

Another exciting tidbit--Jamie's team is 3-1 now and they're really fun to watch. In fact, mom and Sarah are coming down Monday to watch his game. Should be fun, hopefully a ball comes his way-the four year olds are in the outfield due to difference in skill level between them and the six year olds.

So long for now, hope to post more later when there's time!

Take care all.
