March is almost Over - Spring Time is here

Spring time is here. It is filled with soccer games, baseball games, and practices.

Spencer has had 3 soccer games and has scored 5 goals, 1 goal and 3 goals in each of the first 3 games. Hadden has played his first baseball game and went 3 for 3 with a triple and 2 singles. Hadden has practiced a lot of baseball this year as the season begins and is enjoying playing and haning out with his buddies. Spencer likes soccer and still does not express an interest in baseball.

Nash is getting big. He has started saying mama, dada and his new trick this week is starting to wave bye when he is leaving or hi when coming into a room. he is a lot of fun and both hadden and spencer like him much as older brother can young babies. they are both helpful and will pitch and and watch and help us when needed.

Carrie and I continue to enjoy watching the kids excel in school and the random things kids say and do. some are just not appropirate for this blog. but i do need to keep a list somewhere. Hadden's easter bunny story this year seemed a fit exactly like carrie's trip to Maui - pretty funny.

We are going to b'ham this week and then on to the beach for a week. Spencer is turning 6 on Friday march 30 - hard to belive. I took 6 boys for pizza and skating for his birthday this week and everyone had a great time. That is definatly the first time i had skates on that i can recall. The boys both skate in school some in gym so they are both pretty good on skates.

Almost Spring

Hadden mowed for the first time this season. the only thing i did was get it started for him. Spencer is next to start mowing after he turns 6 which is coming up at the end of this month. It is nice to not have to mow - i worked in the natural area's while hadden mowed. He beat me but it sure beats doing both. Spencer helped me with the weeds.

Hadden and Spencer went to a skating party yesterday for the cousins Liza and Cooper's birthday and had a great time. I hung here with Nash and he has learned a couple new tricks

Nash now weighs 21 lbs, spencer 52 and hadden 66. Nash has 4 teeth and has started trying to bite us on everyone. He is all around the house now pulling up and crawing everywhere. He has not figured out the stairs yet and does not like the stairs. His latest trick is to stand up in his bed. Now this would not be a problem except he has not figured out how to bend his knees and sit back down. so the crying at nap time / bed time because he gets stuck standing up is currently in process.

Basketball is over and now we are on to spencer playing soccer which i am coaching and hadden playing baseball. we will go see my parents at the end of march both before and after our trip to the beach for spring break. i know the older kids can't wait to go so we will see what traveling with a 9 month old baby goes that week. Easter will be in b'ham this near.
