Cailee’s first day of soccer

Today was Cailee’s first day of soccer. It was actually the draft evaluation where the kids play and the coaches evaluate their skills so they can build teams that are evenly distributed – if that really matters when it comes to three and four year olds. Cailee was cute, she was a little nervous to…

Sometimes its just easier to capture the action on my iphone because it fits in my pocket. Over the past week I have caught some cute photos on the go. Here is the prequel to the naked pictures of Connor (see my post a few down) – this was him jumping in the pool, fully…

Mr. Cool

This weekend was pretty low key. With our vacation just around the corner, and the end of summer just after that, we spent the weekend picking up school supplies, soccer gear (yes, Cailee is going to try soccer next weekend), and taking advantage of tax free sales.

Lucky me!

This week Cailee was in camp every morning so it gave me just a few hours alone with my little man. On Wednesday, I got the rare opportunity to take a day off and spend some real quality time with Connor. No babysitters, no conference calls, no big sisters. Just me and my little guy….

Guilty as charged

Ok, so I will take full blame for what I am about to share. First mistake: I gave Cailee and Connor pudding for desert tonight. Second mistake: Connor really wanted to eat it on his own and I *thought* was making a mess grabbing at the spoon, so I handed him the reins, yep, I…

Planes!

This past weekend JJ flew to Cincinnati to pick up a new car (and then drive it back). So the kids and I woke up early and took him to the airport. Afterwards, we went to the observation deck to try and see him take off. Of course I have no idea which plane was…

Strutting and swinging

So Cailee has finally got to the point where if you ask her to smile for a picture – she will – but its usually a real squinty eyed smile – you know – like the most put on smile you can imagine, definitely not one that extenuates her beautiful natural smile. So this time…
