Hey Batta Batta! Swing Batta Batta

Go Padres!!!


This was your first T ball game and man was it funny. Piper, you did not want to bat first. You're #1 so you had to bat first but didnt want to be the guinea pig. After you got over the shock effect, you were great a catching ground balls.










Little Phoenix, at first, you watched the balls roll pass you and didnt move but when we "encouraged" you to get the balls, you were all over the field. You were supposed to play 2nd base but you left for 1st, 3rd, short stop even outfield. It was hilarious. You go Phoenix!





Of course there's time to pose for a photo during a game. You go Pi!





So the way T-ball works is everybody hits and no body is out. Of course your father says at the end of the game out loud, "Alright Padres, 1 and 0." You'll get used to him guys.




Phoenix, you were so focused but when asked to tag one of the opposing team, you refused. It simply was not nice. So cute.















Easter was great. You both got a present from the Easter bunny. Piper you got you 2 Wuggle Pets (with the kit of course, it's the only way it will come to life.) and Phoenix you got 1 Wuggle pet and a mace. We also had our annual Easter egg hunt inside the house. The empty egg (symbolizing Jesus' empty tomb) had the bigger prize while the others had coins for a trip to frozen yogurt place. Can you tell Im sick of all of the candy in the house?





It's pretty nice that you're still interested in decorating eggs for Easter. , I challenged both of you to get your creative juices going by giving you both plastic eggs and a bin full of "decorations." This is what you came up with. Phoenix, I bet you're guessing that you made the one with the single eye but it was actually your ate's.

We didnt stop there, on another day we dyed some eggs and had you pick a character to make. Phoenix, you went for a pirate egg and Piper a queen egg.

Happy Easter 2012!





































Spring Break this year was different for us Pi than Phoenix's. I've mapped out our week only to find out that all you wanted to do was bake, make fruit salad (shown below) and make crafts. You werent interested in playdates, going to museums or visiting friends. You are a true home body. Spring Break was nice and relaxing. We spent tons of time together and I loved it.




Fruit Salad you made for our boys.
