Take me out to the Ball Game

For Memorial day we ended up going up to my Brother Adam’s house, eating Pizza and playing Baseball.  We played 5 on 5, and didn’t keep score. So fun!  It’s been years since I’ve played.  I miss it so much.  Anyone want to join a team with me?

True to my motherly self I really only took pictures of my kids.

Liam was quite excited.  I love that he will smile when I point the camera at him.  He’s learned well.

It was a great day for Baseball.

Splishing, Splashing, and Dunking

We have some good friends in our ward that are moving.  We are sad. He has been Jamon’s first counselor for over 2 years and she was my visiting teacher when we moved in and then we became VT companions and have been for 2 years. So we had a we will miss you party.  We went to a neighbors house that have a pool in their back yard. A way nice pool and way nice yard.

Liam was very excited.  He wanted to jump in first thing.2013-05-24 19.24.23

He LOVED it. 

Jamon even threw him up and didn’t catch him a few times to see what Liam would do. 

I think this made Jamon more nervous than Liam.

 

This was Asher’s first time swimming.

He liked it, but wasn’t too sure what to think.  This is the only smile I could get.

He got out, I warmed him up, and then he wanted back in.

And this was the smile he gave me. Even after this…

Jamon missed him on the way back down, but that didn’t stop him from loving it.

Warming up before we went home.

 

We expect many swim days ahead.

11 months

“Baby Ash” is 11 months old. How can this be?

Asher’s 11 months:

  • took his first steps, up to three at a time. Very exciting
  • stands himself up without holding on to anything.DSC_0577
  • one of his top teeth FINALLY cut through, the other is so close along with the next set…Grumpy baby.
  • loves to dance.

  • has started climbing up on things.
  • likes to give me kisses. It actually feels more like he’s mauling my face. Drool everywhere.DSC_0590
  • loves to swing
  • went down the slide for the first time and loved it.DSC_0596
  • hates wearing shoes…or they are just fun to take off and chew on.
  • makes a funny throat noise. Kind of like a hiss, but harsher. It’s hard to explain, but her really does it all the time.
  • Can’t sit still.  This kid has to be moving. Church is not fun.

We sure do love this kid.  He makes us so Happy.

I had to put this picture on here (sorry Asher). I don’t know why he was crying, maybe because it was raining or because I wouldn’t let him hold onto me. Either way sad, but funny…and cute.
