Baseball Season Has Begun!

Yesterday was Enoch's first baseball game. He played shortstop and 2nd base. He did a great job at stopping the ball, and throwing it (even if he wasn't sure where to throw it.) And he did a great job at his one time batting (even if he did strike out - we're blaming it on the pitching machine.)

He is on the Cincinnati Reds coach pitch team with other boys his age. The next month and a half is going to be busy - an hour and a half practice twice a week and one to two games a week. But it's going to be fun! His coaches are three guys from our ward that also have boys on the team. There are also some boys from his school class on his team also.

Ezra

Today is our sweet Ezra's birthday. He would have been 5 years old. We love him and are so thankful that he is a part of our family, even if he isn't here with us right now. We will be with him again some day.

No pictures :(

Sadly, I don't have any new pictures to post! But I thought I'd give a shout out to anyone who is reading this.....HI! We're doing great. It's been a warm week, and the kids have loved playing out in the sand box for the last few days. There was some water from the melted snow from last week, and they love getting messy! Isaiah just climbs right in with the big kids.

Duane broke his foot 2 1/2 weeks ago, but he's already walking on it. Thankfully it was a small brake, and mostly a sprained ankle which has healed well. He is having a hard time waiting to play racquetball again. (He broke it playing racquetball. He didn't even have anyone's help. He did it all by himself. But didn't score any points for it.)

As spring gets closer we're getting closer to cutting down all our over grown rose bushes. If only we had electric pruning shears or something. We're also getting excited to have a garden. It's almost time to start some of the seeds!

Maybe I'll have some new pictures soon! Thanks for reading!

Sledding

Here are a few pictures of sledding by my parents' house last month. It was perfect weather - cold enough to have snow, but warm enough that you didn't freeze. We went with my sister and her kids, and my little sisters.

Caleb is 3!

I know this is a little late, but I wanted to share pictures from Caleb's birthday last month.

We started the celebration the night before by going to Pizza Hut for dinner (just like we did for Isaiah's birthday.) On his birthday Caleb woke up to find decorations, balloons, and a pile of presents! He had a great time opening everything, and played with all the toys all day long.

That night we had the some friends over for dinner and they joined us in singing Happy Birthday and eating cake and ice cream. I made Caleb a train cake, which he chose.

We love Caleb so much and love having him in our family. He is a very happy little boy, and smiles so often. He gets excited about lots of little things, that it makes others around him happier. He is a great big brother to Isaiah, and plays with him a lot while Enoch's at school. He loves to sing, pretend, copy Enoch, be read to, look at books by himself, color, count, stay in his jammies all day, swing on "his swing" in the backyard, and dig in the sand (when it's not winter.)

Wow! I can't believe my little boy is 3!






(His requests for his birthday food, which he had been making for months before hand - strawberries and orange juice. In the picture he's licking the cake mixing spoon.)
