I thought I had better do a post just to catch up on all that’s been going on around here since it has been a while since I last updated!
Happy Valentine’s Day!!
Austin has been playing Upward basketball. He plays on a league at Beulah Baptist Church (which is next to nowhere on the other side of the universe…at least it feels like it early on Saturday mornings…Ha!) He has a game every Saturday at 9:00 and practice on Thursday nights. Josh is his coach, and he loves his daddy coaching him. Landon is the assistant coach (at least he thinks so!). Brooke is the self-proclaimed photographer and cheerleader. I am the water woman (at least that is what I feel like toting so many water bottles around…it just couldn’t be that you bring Austin a water bottle without bringing one for Landon and Brooke!) And I guess Caleb can be the mascot:)
Mr. Dickie and Ms. Ann have been great spectators, making it almost every week! We have also had Nana and Papa at two games, and Wes and Ashley even made a game! He is a good little baller, if I do say so myself! He sure does love it!
Brooke started gymnastics this past Tuesday night, and she loved it!!! We had a major countdown (almost hourly) starting 9 days before when I signed her up!! She actually told me on Sunday that I shouldn’t have told her about it until Tuesday because she has been too excited!! Ha! We now have a new vocabulary in our house that includes: pencil, candlestick, cartwheel, bridge, and strong arms…strong arms was by far her favorite which includes her holding herself up on her arms on the uneven bar. Bless her heart though, she is her mother and father’s daughter…not limber at all and a little scared to just throw her body into a handstand or cartwheel. I guess we will see just how good these instructors are:)
Landon has had the flu type B:( Bless his heart, last week, he didn’t feel too good and ran a high fever. We sent him to Missouri with Nana and Papa (since they had already had the flu) on Friday night to try to keep it away from Caleb. It was hard on Mommy to send a sick child, but he couldn’t wait!! He did great and got to come back home on Monday after being fever free for 24 hours. We all missed him, but are thankful that no one else has gotten sick. He somehow thought up the idea of bringing us all a present home.
Before going to the Dr. on Friday:(
Had to have a picture with the water bottles!!
Caleb has just been growing!!! He is such a sweet, easy-going baby! It is a good thing too because he sure does take the abuse, I mean loving, from his siblings! I won’t mention too much of his statistics or what he is up to because I plan to do a post later this week for him being 5 months old…where does the time go??? Caleb also went swimming for the first time last month. He really enjoyed it and was so relaxed!! He also got a new-to-him, borrowed Jumperoo that he enjoys hanging out in it a little each day.
What happens when you have an 8-year old brother!
Josh and I did a marriage seminar this past weekend at Union Hill Church of Christ near Hardin, KY. This was a first for us, but had a lot of fun doing it together!! (This was also another reason we had to send Landon to Nana and Papa’s for the weekend.) Josh also spoke on the FHU lectures last Monday. He did a fantastic job, as I knew he would! It is always fun to take the kids to FHU and reminisce of college days…it was too bad our time got cut short this time with Landon getting what we know now was the FLU!
Maybe that gives you a little idea of what we have been up to…at least the “blog-worthy” material:)
I had to take two pictures of the group to get them all in!!
Here’s what Caleb did the whole time…he’s such a difficult baby:)
