The Bear

I didn't want to leave my little bear out of the return to blogging...

He has gotten so big and seems so grown up. He's talking more and more, and is looking more and more like daddy these days :)


He loves, I mean LOVES airplanes. A favorite new activity is taking the kids out to the Lakeway airport to watch the planes.
He was all bundled up this day (during that one week of winter we had ;))


Such a bear :)


And today, enjoying a nutritious lunch of Mac n cheese, peas, and chocolate pudding...


He wouldn't look at me, he just kept looking down or looking away and laughing. Stinker.

I finally busted him, which he found hysterical.



Love this little guy!

Soccer Girl

For months, Caroline has been talking about being a "soccer girl." She says she wants to be a soccer player when she grows up, she runs around showing us her soccer moves, and even has a black and white striped dress that she refers to as her "soccer dress."
All of this excitement, and yet, she knows absolutely nothing about what soccer really is. Some of her friends at school put a team together, so we decided to join...I mean, of the girl has aspirations of playing professionally someday, who u am to crush her dreams? ;)
This past weekend they had their kick off event...Soccer Skills day. A fun little practice for all the 4 (or almost 4) year olds in the league. A way to get familiar with a few basics and have fun.
We needed a proper soccer outfit, of course...


(here are those "soccer moves" I mentioned)

And daddy took her to pick out pink shin guards, pink cleats, and a sparkly pink ball!

Unfortunately, the "fun day" wasn't as fun for our little soccer girl...




Daddy said the mood was pretty intense, and Caroline thought "the running part made her very tired" ha!
I am sure it will be more fun when she is with all her little friends rather than a bunch of random kids, but we shall see...

There may be a career change in our soccer girls future ;)

Wacky Wednesday!

This week, Caroline's class is celebrating Dr. Suess's birthday with a week full of silliness.

Yesterday was crazy hat day. Caroline opted for a pilot hat and insisted that her hat was "not crazy, it's just a hat."

Today was Wacky Wednesday, so the wore crazy clothes. Last night, I asked her what she wanted to wear. Her response? "Well, how about I don't wear any clothes? That would be REALLY crazy."
Seriously. Who is this kid!? ;) She is so funny to me.
We were able to agree that wearing clothes could also be crazy. This was the result...











She loved it! Tomorrow is silly sock day, so we'll see what she comes up with!

I'm baaaaaaack...maybe ;)

Well, it's been so long, I almost don't even know where to start!?
It goes against my nature to just pick up and start blogging. I have felt very compelled to start where we left off and go in order, but clearly, that hasn't happened.
So, onto plan b...I will just start blogging again, and go back and fill in someday (or never ;)).
Who knows how long my rediscovered interest in the blog will last!?!?
