saturday morning at the zoo.

jonah's first visit to the ZOO!

soccer saturday.

Today was game #2 for Jackson... and what a difference a week makes. His nerves were gone, he's becoming such good buddies with his teammates and while we lost official count, his team scored something like 20 goals. They were on fire and so fun to watch. And the views of his smallest fans on the sidelines weren't bad either...

#8

When did my Saturdays turn into soccer games, lawn-mower shopping and Costco trips? Apparently today. I'm not sure what is more shocking- that Jackson is old enough to have soccer games or that I'm old enough to have a kid who plays soccer. Either way, it was a pretty adorable morning at the fields. After his game he whispered in my ear, as if revealing the biggest secret, "Mommy, at first I was really scared, but then it was so FUN!" And so are most of the best things in life, little buddy.

 

 

saturday adventures...

While I have been gifted a THREE day weekend (thank you, MLK!), Dan unfortunately had to work all day, so the monsters and I were on our own. Admittedley a little paranoid with all of the flu germs, we stayed home most of the day making Valentines, building with Legos, getting chores done and having more than our fair share of dance parties (the peanut has a new favorite song and demands that we play it often). But, we also made an escape for a trip to the library. We're very lucky to have one of the most beautiful public libraries with a children's section that is enormous, fun and for some reason almost always empty except for us. Why people never take advantage of their local libraries I'll never understand, but JP and the peanut LOVE going. PS: What is cuter than a peanut? A peanut with a pig-tail of course!
