Big Slide

Will looks like he's trying to hold on for dear life! And Thomas was zooming down so fast I almost didn't get him in the picture!
Cate sliding down on her bunky ~ Cate sliding down on her belly!Here goes Thomas ~ super fast again!

Will handled going down on his bunky much better than flat on his back!

Thomas the Tornado

Thomas is playing soccer for the first time this spring. His team's name is the Tornadoes!
Thomas and his teammates posed for their group and individual pictures.

I actually captured this group hug BEFORE the game began. It kinda looks like a victory hug but in fact it was a "lets act as silly as we can" hug!Sitting on the bench waiting for the game to begin. I'm not sure what the 2 boys on the far right are doing, but it cracks me up!
I know this picture if blurry, but I couldn't resist posting it ~ Thomas with his arms crossed = CLASSIC!



I was able to take a few really good actions shots of the game. After the end of the first quarter Thomas came and told me he didn't want to play because it was too hard and that he'd rather watch from the bench. I told him that he could rest but when the coach said it was time to play again he needed to go back on the field. When it was his turn again Thomas still didn't want to play so I suggested a father/son talk.

Dad gave Thomas a little pep talk and he was ready to play again!
I admit I don't know much about soccer, but this looks like a foul to me! The game was an overall success. The Tornadoes won 3 - 1.

Cate came to watch the game and Will was more than happy to have someone to play with. During the game they ran around and around and around!

Happy St. Patrick's Day 2011

The following pictures are my attempt at getting a cute picture of the boys in their shamrock antenna and sunglasses. Once again, I say ATTEMPT!I love how in the next few pictures Will is looking at Thomas in each one. I couldn't get Will to look at the camera because he was so busy looking at Thomas being silly! I was finally able to get a sweet, posed picture of Thomas and Will outside their pre-school. I used my phone to take this picture so the quality isn't that great. I'm just proud that they both had their arms around each other and no one was being choked!

4 Boys on a Swing
