Jackson and friends at the 3D movie

More baseball

Time for me to learn how to use the red eye reduction feature on our camera

What happens when I attempt to take photos with the boys

This explains why I insist at least once a year we have family pics taken by a professional....or anyone with the patience to try over and over for one decent photograph!

Happy 7th Birthday

Mommy my pillowcase is making me sweaty

At least once a week there is some kind of sleep disturbance in our house. It rotates among Sean, Jackson and Talus. Lately Sean has been waking up in the middle of the night having issues with his blanket. He gets very upset if his blanket is "wrinkled" and finds it impossible to simply straighten it out on his own. He definitely needs the whole house awake to help him with this pressing issue. Last night we had a new twist on problematic bed linens...fortunately, the problem came up at about 9pm and was easily addressed. He generally loves flannel sheets but last night it was just too warm for the flannel pillowcase...once removed, he was back asleep for the rest of the night.

First Baseball Game

Though this picture does not actually show the game...this is what was happening after the game. During the game, I was in charge of the dug out which meant I was in charge of keeping the batters in order, keeping at least 2 batters waiting with helmets on and making sure the other boys didn't get into too much mischief while waiting for their turn. Sean was with me , too, so I also had to be sure he didn't break into the post game snack bag. Which all explains why there were not pictures taken during the game. Maybe next week!!

Cruising in the pink Barbie Jeep

It got up to about 75 degrees yesterday...the first warm, sunny spring day...which of course, warranted shorts and no shirts for the boys in the neighborhood and also meant it was a great day to cruise around. (The Jeep is not ours!!)
