Birthday Fun!

Peri had her first real birthday party! Turning three is a big deal. She had three little friends over for cupcakes, sprinkler fun and nail painting. It was funny to see Peri navigate the party scene - "what do I do when my friends come in?" "now what do i do with these gifts they're handing me?" "can i eat all of these cupcakes?!"

Grandparents

Cool things about Grandparents? They'll let you drive their cars. Even when you're only three!

Baseball is Over!!!!

It's been a long season. A really long season of trying to juggle two practices a week and get to 1-2 games a weekend. Worth it? Of course! Glad it's over? YES!!!

Cedar Point

Annual trip to Cedar Point this weekend with the A's. Boys get taller every year and Peri gets more vocal. "I no wanna ride the roller coaster. I wanna ride the roller coaster. I want ice cream. I need to pee..."

Wink

PJ taught Peri how to wink a few weeks back. Think she can do it better than I can!

Bad Dad

I can't remember how this came about, but at some point someone was chugging a drink (non-alchoholic) and Chris taught Nick to chant "chug chug chug...". I came out on the back deck a few weeks ago to hear Nick AND Peri chanting it to Chris. Klassy.

1st Grade Picnic

Better late than never?

St. Ben's has a picnic day at the end of the school year. They went to a big city park and had a nice mix of organized games and free play. A friend got this great shot of Nick during the sack race. I love it.
