Life as a baseball player

Well, baseball is well underway. Actually, Austin is getting ready to play his last game this Thursday! This was his first year, and we were all a little nervous about the out come of the season... And while some of the season was spent filling the pockets of his baseball pants with dirt I would say all in all he had a great first season! His team was the River Cat, which he thought was great! He enjoyed being cheered on by all his grandparents every game and loved giving the guilt trip when they had to miss a game.... Haha.
Caden on the other hand was in hi 3rd year so we chose to move him up to the Pinto level. So, while he is only 6 he played with the 7 and 8 year olds.. I have to say he did a pretty good job of keeping up! He had a tournament in Maroa this past week and he got his first double! It was just myself and grandma Susie there to cheer him on because Austin also had a game that night, but as soon as he made it to second he turned around with a huge smile and arms raised and jumped up and down. He was very proud o himself, and I have to admit I was one proud momma!!! He is, no doubt our little athlete!
Our boys have had a great season so far and though it is coming to an end, they are still just as excited for their games now as they were for their fort one!

A fancy meal???

Well it has been a crazy couple of months! Christmas flew by! The boys had a great Christmas after which we spent a week Wisconsin Dells! We had a blast and the boys loved the waterparks. Most recently we spent a wonderful Valentines day together at the Beach House! The boys dressed up in their suits and ties and went out for their first formal dinner. I was a little Nervous about the looks we would get taking a 3 and 6 year old to a formal place but every one loved them! They of course didn't have kids menus because it isn't really a kid friendly place but they found Mac and cheese so that made them happy!
