What we've been up to . . .

After a couple of days off, we're back to baseball! Nicholas' coach gave the team Sunday & Monday off and on Sunday we went to Oceanside and bowled and hung out with family. So. Nice. Monday Jay worked 12 hrs of OT, so the boys and I were on our own to do errands. We had to buy Nicholas new cleats; would you believe that, that poor child of mine was wearing a whole size smaller . . . for goodness knows how long! Later that evening, Noah got a clever idea to fill one of Nicholas' new cleats with water.  Thank goodness Nicholas is pretty easy-going; all he said was, "Mom can you please come over here and get mad at Noah - he just filled my cleat with water."

Poor Jay walked in on this . .  I think Jay was so tired and he's not used to finishing up a shift and coming home to all the drama.  His routine is to finish up a shift and then sleep at the station.  Not come home  . . . home is way more work!  

It's starting to heat up here!  And now I am sort of regretting saying, "I wish it felt more like summer."  Because Oh. My. Word. it's starting to feel like summer!  Lastnight we caved and turned on the air conditioner; just so we could sleep comfortably.  And we did.  It was so nice!

Here are a few pictures from the past few days . . .  all of Noah.  The only boy that will happily and sincerely smile for the camera.

Look!  He's finally let go of the side of the pool.  Yay Noah!

I love that after he turned to smile at me he said, "Now go back and sit down."  Gotta love his independence!

Noah's last day of swim lessons with Miss Hannah!  Awesome job Noah!

Monday night we made pizza for dinner.  Noah loved it!  It was a reminder to me that I need to do more cooking with Noah. 

 

Tuesday the heat started to set in.  Noah took his nap on the couch. 

And that's it.  We've basically been at the baseball fields in the evening . . . practicing and sweating our behinds off preparing for this Saturday's first sectional game.

Happy Thursday!
