Parker is “Hooked”

Filed under: Uncategorized — dto @ 1:35 pm

We met Parker’s coach. He is playing coach-pitch this year. He is on the “Hooks” team. We’ll get a picture up here soon. The logo is really cute and Parker is thrilled to have a new hat. He loves his hats.

Hopefully this year will be more fun. I really hated t-ball last year. It is sooooo completely boring. This will be more fun, especially if Parker starts getting his head wrapped around positions and such.

Cardinals win two straight

Filed under: Uncategorized — dto @ 1:33 pm

Tanner and his team are on somewhat of a roll. They have won two straight. One against the Mets and one against the Red Sox. This is the longest winning streak they have had in a couple of years (I know, pretty sad).

Tanner is playing well. He got down on himself for his pitching last night. He seems to quickly forget that he isn’t a pitcher by trade and hasn’t been trained for years and years as a pitcher. Yes he walked in a number of runs, but he is getting better and is throwing more and more strikes. It is all in his head and is a mental game. He’ll be just fine.

He is hitting fairly well, not for power, but is getting on base regularly. I hope he is having fun. Sometimes through the tears it is hard to tell.

Sometimes I wonder if our kids even try to hit the garbage can – or if the pantry is just the generic garbage hole. It appears the latter is true.

By the look on her face you would believe that we never feed her.

Usually I only make pancakes on Saturday mornings, but I couldn’t sleep well and so I got up and had pancakes ready for everyone.

Kiki just devoured it without even waiting for syrup.

Just what we needed, nearly white-out conditions in April. Who ordered this up?
Oh well – there isn’t much that can be done about it.
