What a week!

We started the week with great weather! Jaden even caught his first Grasshopper! I was surprised that it didn't just hop off his hand. He loved flipping his hand over and having the grasshopper hang up-side-down! He even shared it with his friend Misha.


At the park this week for playgroup Kyler walked around holding Megan's hand. I think it's cute!


And since I had my camera there, I was finally able to get Jaden crossing the monkey bars!

Here are some plays from Jaden at TBall this week. Check out those puffy cheeks! Guess that's what he does when he's concentrating!?... I love it!

Oh yeah, and here's his team!

Here's what a lot of the plays look like. Even if the pitcher gets the ball it's still a race to see who REALLY gets it. Jaden was playing first base, so the ball was thrown to him each time. Then he's supposed to throw it home.

Here Jaden is up to bat. They are learning at practice to take a "practice swing" and then hit it. It's fun to see him apply it at the games.

Here is a GREAT hit!

In this one, Jaden got to hit last, which means he also got to run a Home Run! Still figuring out the concept of it all a bit, but enjoying it all! I think he was getting a little ahead of himself on the way to first, tripping up over his feet. And I love his finish into Home! 3 innings can really wear you out!

This picture is actually from last weeks game. Guess I forgot to give Kyler some blog time. :)

Here he is charming another little lady. He was so sweet to take Ali up the hill with him and then run down together, of course holding hands!

This morning Kyler totally ran into the stair rail corner. I am so glad he let me put ice on this! It was seriously sticking out so far and right away! But I'm glad I grabbed the ice first and not the camera, even though a picture of it right after would have been great to have. I'm also glad it didn't split open. Don't know if I could have handled stitches in the forehead again. Hopefully someday this little guy will learn that he's not indestructible!

You can tell that Jaden is paying attention when he comes to scouts with me. We recite the Pledge of Allegiance every week at Den Meetings. His version isn't quite perfect, but pretty darn close I thought! And this was just totally out of the blue today. Don't know what made him think if it, but I asked him if he'd do it again if I ran and got the camera. I think he's a smarty pants!

Here's a sneak peak to my project this summer. The boys kept saying "Daddy is going to be so mad." Well I hope he really isn't. The whole cement pad is actually now gone. I'll have to get an updated picture. Can't wait for it to all be done! It's going to look fantastic! Boy am I sore!

I'm exhausted! What a week!
