Liam had a GREAT first game! He had two RBI’s, made one or two outs and only struck out once. He played right field for two innings, sat on the bench for two innings and he was the “pitcher” for two innings (he stood by the pitching machine). His team had LOTS of great hits, but they super duper need to work on defense.

Doesn’t everyone wear a fake ‘stache to baseball practice? (Yes, I made him take it off before practice started, but he had to wear it long enough so everyone could see it.)
We eat a lot of snacks around here. The boys each take a snack to school each day and then they usually always have a snack after school and then they might also have a snack before bedtime. While the boys were at TKD, I walked over to the nearest grocery store to see what they had in the way of snacks because the cupboard was starting to look a little bare. Since I don’t usually go to that store, I got some snacks our regular grocery store doesn’t carry and also some tried and true favorites. The boys have always liked the Mix-Up Goldfish and the V-8 Fusion juice, but we had never tried the Newton cookies or the Wheat Thin Stix. The Newton cookies are awesome…the Wheat Thin Stix are just so-so.
They get one bean for each good deed they do over the course of Lent. Their goal is to have at least 40 beans in their cup before Easter. As you can see, Colm is keeping track of his every step of the way. 🙂
Colm has learned almost all of his Twinkles (that’s Suzuki talk for those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about) so he gets to stay and play for a while with the more advanced students now.
It was a cold and rainy day… thank goodness Oregon schools have covered playgrounds.
