T-Ball

Marcus has started Tball!!! I have to admit i was SOOOO worried- we signed him up for a basketball camp and it turned out to be a NIGHTMARE with him..... He wanted NOTHING to do with it, he buried his head into either Crispin or my side.... we could not even get him to dribble the dang ball.... after going through that and the frustration of trying to get him to participate... I was not looking forward to this and I would not have signed him up if I had known he would act like that... well his first practice was this last week... I explained to him a head of time that he will be in the field with his team and mom and dad cant help him out like in basketball.... we got there and he got his jersey and hat and he started to warm up to the idea... He was first to bat and as soon as he got the batting helmet on, HE WAS READY!!!! I was SOOOOOOOO relieved that he was trying!!!! and the entire practice his just had a huge smile on my face- I sat on the side just smiling as big as he was because I was SOO happy that he was enjoying himself!!!!
Here he is batting- I am not gonna lie- he has a hard time hitting it off the stand, but if we pitch the ball to him, he hits it 95% of the time!!!




Big Brother

Marcus is seriously the BEST big brother, EVER!!!!! It amazes me how much he loves Bryce!! he has gotten in trouble a couple times for hurting him- but only a couple times.... If Bryce learns something new, Marcus' face just LIGHTS up and he gets SOOOO excited for Bryce and always says "Good Job Bryce!!!!" it is seriously the cutest thing!!! Here are some pictures of my 2 boys!!!




















SOOOO precious

Can I just say how much I LOVE Bryce????? He seriously has made my heart grow SO much bigger!!! One night he was having a hard time going to sleep-- so I held his hand and he calmed right now and fell asleep so fast... I honestly sat here for a good 30-45 mins just letting him hold my hand cause I LOVED every second of it!!!!!!


Swimming

We went down to my parents a couple weekends ago to go swimming, and it was Bryce's first time! He loved the water... he was completely content just sitting in the pool!!! and Marcus can now swim without and adult holding onto him the whole time!! Thanks to my dad for working with him and teaching him!!

I hope this video works... but it is both the boys in the pool




OOOOHHHHHm Poop!!!!

This is NOT for the weak stomach people........ Bryce just can't seem to keep his poop in his diaper...... We have had several messes to clean up...... Here is one....

And then this one happened the day before......

It was AWFUL!!!!!!! I grabbed Bryce and headed upto the bath tub and Crispin cleaned the carpet.... Our downstairs smelt bad for a couple hours....... Bryce should be VERY proud of himself!!!

Apple Annies

I am SO behind on this blog- about 6 weeks to be exact- so I will try to catch up because it has been a busy 6 weeks. This is right after Kara was born. Rusty asked me if we wanted to go down to Apple Annies to pick fruit and corn... It is about a 3 hr drive and SOME what close to Rachels house. so we decided to go so we could also meet Kara. We have the same picture below but of Grant hold Marcus.


Here is Bryce cooling down in the truck!!! I think this was his favorite part!!!




These 2 boys are SO close... I think the best part of this whole trip is when we got there both Marcus and Grant screamed each others name and ran up to each other and hugged. they truely love each other!!!!


We were able to pick peaches, apples, corn and tons of other produce items!!




I really do wish i lived closer to Rachel so the boys could see each other more often!!!! they have so much fun with each and I love that they play so well together (most of the time)!!!!!!
