Evrit's VERY FIRST Soccer Game

Ready for some soccer!!! The season got underway this weekend. Evrit played in his first game ... Well, he was really more of a spectator. Turn around buddy. The ball is RIGHT THERE.

He was far more comfortable playing on the sidelines with Uncle Lee.

Story time with Dad

Soccer Practice for the Fall Season got off to a Grand Start

Madeline had a really great soccer practice this week. She got out there and worked hard ... and I think she even had fun. Go Blue Rangers!

Evrit had his soccer practice this week too. He did a good job listening and following instructions.

And I KNOW he had a good time. He loves that he is playing "sock-ball" on a "team" and will have "games". Go Tigers!

Having a little snack ... in my super cool hat.

Wacky Hat Skater

Skateboard Tricks

He has it all set up - rock and all. Now for the trick...

YEA! Mom ... I did it. Flip ober! (I thought the goal was to ride the ramp, but if you say so...Yea, Evrit!)

With all the rain, Evrit has been introduced to umbrellas. He thinks they are magical. He gets so excited and laughs out loud when the umbrella pops

Evrit's First Day of School

Okay Mom - Help me get my stuff for school. I love my backpack.

NEED HELP!

"Too Heaby, Mom." I can't go to school today afterall. My stuff is "too heaby".

Boating Fun

While riding on the boat, Madeline enjoyed pretending to fly with Daddy. (Crazy kids) She also had fun driving the boat with G-Daddy.

Evrit liked driving too, but when it wasn't his turn, he preferred dragging his hand ... or hair ... in the water.

We spent the weekend in Elkhart with the grandparents. We even helped G-Daddy get started on a boat house. The victory laps in the evening were one

Evrit's New School

Evrit met with his new teachers, Ms. Anneke and Ms. Mildred, on Friday and was able to look around his new classroom.

I think he is going to like the playtime best.

He definitely thinks he is a "big kid" now and is ready for a booster seat like Madeline's. A few more months, little one...

Evrit with Skateboard Safety and Stunts

Practicing a little safety - This buckle isn't easy to fasten.

"Flip ober" - Evrit is trying to flip his skateboard over.

"Ah Man! Flip it ober, skateboard."

The Ball Player

Swing, Batter, Batter!

Or is he a conked out tennis player? (As long as there is a ball, he is ready to play!)

More Evrit

"Jup oba" (jump over) Evrit has been watching Malcolm do skateboard tricks and is now trying tricks of his own.

Evrit ate some cookies and cream ice cream and then fell asleep. His face makes me think he has been eating dirt. Sweet sleeping baby (even when dirty).

Evrit

See my shiner? Malcolm elbowed me in the face Friday night. It is now Monday morning, and the bruise is really showing up (even though the picture does not seem to do it justice). I was very tough through the experience.

Momma asked, "What does your shirt say, Evrit?" I replied, "Daddy love ME!"
