Princess has been quite patient and has to sit in her stroller while I work on projects. Some days she does better than others. I have done quite a bit of painting with her on my back in the beco carrier. I really need some pictures of that. She will fall asleep while I am painting and kind of hang there with her head lopping from side to side.
Because of trying to get all of this done before Easter when we take Starboy to the house, I have not posted for a long time. So, it is catchup time.
Princess's Birthday Party February 27
She recieved the Precious Moment Birthday Train set from Her daddy
Lots of fun toys from cousins, and Aunts & Uncles. Her pretty outfit was from Grandma and Grandpa S. in Hong Kong.
She wouldn't put down her "Big Bad Wolf" Build a Bear that her and Coach went and built.From Mom Princess got a bike helmet and a new bike seat so that they can ride together. You'll see pictures of that later in this blog. It was a fun Party. She especially enjoyed her birthday cupcake.
Her yummy chocolate cupcakes had zuchinni, carrots, and spinich hidden inside and were sweetend with xylitol.
She loved them, and so did everyone else!STARBOY -BASKETBALL SEASON
Starboy is in basketball season and HE LOVES IT!! He practices outside everyday and tells me "he is working on his moves" It 's really funny to watch 1st and 2nd graders play, because they are all ball hogs, and don't quite understand the concept of team work or guarding. They mostly just want to get the ball and try to shoot. Alot of the time airballs occur, but every once in awhile you will see a basket. Starboys team is finally catching on to the passing thing now that the season is about over. It has been fun watching him and the others improve each week.
They play on 8 ft hoops. There is no stealing allowed (which is actually one of the things starboy is good at) They are really nice about things like double dribbles, and traveling. They just stop the game and explain the rule and then have the ball thrown in again. They usually have 2 games going on at a time. The boys all think they are keeping score and both teams always think they are winning (No score actually kept). The teams practice for 20 minutes at the beginning, and then there is a 40 minute game.
PRINCESS's NEW TRANSPORTATION
Princess LOVES her new bikeseat that she got for her birthday. She has a helmet and everything. We have only gone on little short 5-10 minute rides so far, but as it gets warmer, we will try longer. She never wants to get out when we get home. I think it will be a lot of fun this summer especially. The ibert is rated as one of the safest infant bike seats available.
That is a little glimpse of our March Maddness.

Sounds like a more exciting March Madness than actually occurred (in basketball).
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of basketball, Parker played basketball for the first time this last fall. Everything you described was the same here. And fun to watch for sure! I was always cracking up at the things the kids were doing. Even the "score keeping". Parker always said they were up by like 10-20 points (they never were, in fact, I'm not sure if his team won any games, but they don't keep score either). It gets better, Scott played, too, and they played full court and wouldn't let them get away with anything. Scott is short, but was good and sneaking past the big guys and dunking shots in.
Fun for your announcement next week for Dillon. Parker had to write about his spring break at school and it was all about his cool cousin Dillon and playing with him.
Will be so fun to move. We signed papers on the Utah house today! So it's pretty much a done deal!
Wow, I love that bike seat! I've been looking for that kind. Where did you find it?
ReplyDeleteI am amazed you've been able to keep your new house a secret. How do you keep the tell-tale paint off your hands? Whenever I paint I have it all over myself!
