Here comes the sun…finally! Today, a beautiful 80 degree is on tap. Holler! This definitely makes me super happy Two hour baseball practice and weekend tournament not so much. The boy keeps us hopping. In better news, it looks like the Larry Heid 3 on 3 basketball tourney is a go for the summer …
Yesterday, Zachary came home upset. At first, he threw a tantrum and refused to eat (gulph)…so I knew something big was up. He didn’t talk about it for most of the night. So I patiently waited to when he wanted to discuss. Sure enough, at bedtime, he brought it up. It seems that a group …
This week was the official start of baseball. We couldn’t be happier with the decision to go with the travel team instead of Little League.

And we let him know, we didn’t care about any trophies, but rather that he gave his …
For his birthday, Daddy received a special gift. It seems that someone else had a boyhood crush on his favorite stuffed animal. And somehow, after twenty plus years, this thing has made its way to our house, a bit ragged but fully intact. So as you can imagine, Zachary and I couldn’t wait to have …
This year, mommy signed up to help with Zachary’s St Patty party. We elected to do bingo, banners and a scavenger hunt for our activities.
