Lefty

It turns out that Caedan picked up quite a bit during all of the t-ball practices and games that he attended this spring. He knows how to hold a bat and stand in the ready position. He knows how to put a mitt on and hold it out to catch a ball and he knows how to throw the ball. But the most exciting part for us is that he is doing all of this as a lefty! This is very exciting for his lefty parents. One of his favorite words right now is biesball. He now runs around holding his new bat, ball and mitt saying 'my biesball'.

Thank you Grandpa and Grandma for the new bat and ball. Now Caedan just needs someone to build him a tee that is his size!!

Shhh...don't tell mom.

Caedan was alone for a few mintues while I was changing. The funny thing is I can't tell you the last time that I wore lipstick!

End of the Season

Today was our last t-ball game of the season. We had a fun season and the kids all learned a lot. They all improved a tremendous amount over the season! It will be nice to have some free time again. We had games every Saturday for the last 10 weeks and practice every Wednesday and Friday. What will we do with all of this free time now? We will of course be back as coaches next
year and hopfully we will get some of our players back as well!

Take me out to the ball game..

Sunday was Little League day at Safeco field.

Before the game there was a little league parade. This basically meant that you were able to go down on the field and walk around the warning track.

Family photo down on the field!

We had great seats behind home plate. We just happened to be in the very last row in the 300 level. We did have a great view of the sound and Caedan loved watching the boats.

Nap time happened to fall during the game. As you can see that wasn't a problem for Caedan. He can still sleep just about anywhere.

After the game kids were invited down to the field to run the bases. I think that this might have been Olivia's favorite part of the day. By the end of the day we spent 6 hours at Safeco field!

Vashon Island

Today Robert and I both took the day off from work. We dropped Olivia off at school, Caedan at daycare and headed to Vashon Island to do some bike riding. When you get off the ferry you can chose what the Seattle PI called the Hill of Death or the Hill of Near Death. We of course decided to take the less traveled path and we headed up the Hill of Death. After climbing up the hill we rode into the town of Vashon. We then headed out of town in search of the Port Robinson Lighthouse. After several hills we found the lighthouse and enjoyed some time on the beach before heading back to town.

We popped into a few shops and then headed back to the ferry in time to get home and pick up the kids. We biked 27 miles today! We only wished that we had picked a day that wasn't so hot!
