Summer time!

Mom says it's summer time but technically it's still spring. Either way I'm excited to stay home and play with my brothers! We have lots of fun adventures planned including a spur-of-the-moment beach trip, a vacation in the mountains and a trip out west! We've also got some day trips planned and lots of bike riding and pool swimming! Hopefully I can keep up with all this blogging!

Last day of Preschool!

We got to have a play day at the park the day before the last day of school. It was lots of fun and my brothers even got to come!
Maria's brother brought this cool ride on machine that we all took turns riding!
And our teachers got us buckets filled with all kinds of goodies! I loved preschool and can't wait for kindergarten to start!
After my last day of school we all went out for ice-cream to celebrate!
Let the summer fun begin!

T-ball baby!


Now that T-ball season is almost over I'm really enjoying it! I can now hit off the pitch and I love it! We get 3 pitches from our coach and if we don't hit it then we get to hit off the T. Mom captured me in action and says that she might sign me up for golf next...she says I'm a natural...

I may have a bit of confusion over home plate. You see, when I'm on third base, everyone is yelling to "Run home!" and 9 times out of 10 I tend to veer off into the dugout...mom caught that on film too!

Mother's Day

Look what I made Mom at school! It's a handprint flower with chores I'll do for her...if she has the heart to tear them off that is! Ha!

Mother's day started with bringing mom breakfast in bed! Dad helped us make pancakes that spelled M-O-M and a heart! Of course Ezekiel and I climbed in bed with her and helped her eat them! Ezekiel got the heart, I got the O, mom chose the M and we all shared the last M. Then we all got ready to go to church, which is rare because Micah is usually napping by the time we need to leave so Mom and Dad take turns staying home with him.
Of course a special day is not complete without pictures!



It was beautiful outside so I got to ride my new bike!
And Nana, Pop and Rob came over for dinner! Happy Mother's day!

Easter Day

Happy Easter everyone! Our computer had some technical difficulties before I had a chance to post these so I'm doing some catching up! Here we are playing with all the egss we found!
Easter morning was a little rushed with checking out our baskets and getting ready for church!
And of course posing for some pictures...
After church we went to the Biltmore House egg hunt but we forgot our baskets so we had to improvise and use what we had in the car! Luckily we found a couple bags that worked. The egg hunt left a bit to be desired but we got to see a magic show before that was kind of cool.
In a total of 5 minutes we gathered eggs, turned them in and got our goodie bags. As mom and dad would say, "weak sauce".
But the fun didn't stop there! Mom's birthday was on Easter this year so we got to have a party for her too!
There are 2 videos that I wanted to include but they are not uploading so I'll just tell you about them. The first is a video of Ezekiel and I finding eggs outside our bedroom door that led all the way down to the front door where we found our Easter baskets and even one for Micah! The second video is me singing "Up From the Grave He Arose" and it's pretty good if I do say so myself. Maybe I can get it to work later.
I almost forgot the egg dyeing part! Always a favorite activity!

Egg Hunt!

This was our first Easter egg hunt of the year! Mom made us pose for pictures before it started... And poor Micah was napping so he didn't get to come this year but he'll be big enough next year, maybe!
This year we started with a parade around the park with the Easter bunny.

Strategizing...
And we're off!
Afterwards we got some pictures with the Easter bunny himself...only guess what? He was really just a man. I saw his arms.
He was still cool so we gave him lots of hugs and high-fives!
We even got balloons at the end of the hunt and posed with the Easter bunny one last time.
Happy Easter!

T-ball

Check out my first T-ball game! I'm on the Braves team and I'm lucky #13! This is me right before game time when we first got our uniforms.
And here I am playing center field. My game was a little boring so I decided to see what was going on in the next field over.
Scooping up a grounder! Check out that form! This is just practice before the game started, I didn't get any balls hit to me during the actual game.
Pre-game pep talk!
My favorite part of T-ball so far is the cheer! "Go Braves!"
Workin' it at bat! I'm a lefty. We get 3 pitches from the coach and if we don't hit it we can hit it off the T. I got a single every time!
I only made it to 3rd base every inning because we always had a 10 run limit before I could make it home.
Celebrating after the win! (27-6)
After game huddle and cheer! I'm still trying to figure out the ins and outs of this game and I'm not sure I love it. I already asked mom and dad not to sign me up next year. For our second game I hit the ball from the pitch and that was really cool so maybe I'll end up liking it, who knows. Right now I'm having fun making new friends and saying cheers!

Zoo trip!

I'm always up for a zoo trip! I wanted to push Micah's stroller and show him all the cool animals!


The best part of the zoo might have been the cool playground! I loved this climbing thing!
