Braves

Connor is playing on the Dulles Little League AAA Braves this spring baseball season.   AAA is a bit higher skill league than some forth graders so he's left a few friends behind.   And alot of the other AAA drafted kids his age play on travel baseball leagues, which he does not.  So, its kind of weird.  But he's doing well and we had a baseball milestone event just about an hour ago....when I watched him ride off to practice on his bike.  I remember when he was little and I'd see kids riding to baseball with their bat bags on their back.  Or wearing their football pads.   I thought they were so old.   And now he's one of them.  He was just riding to a friends to get a ride from his mom to the ballfield...but its the same net effect. My baby is growing up. 

Snow Baby!

Palmer made it to his third winter with no snow photos! Finally, in mid-March it happened. He loved it. So did I.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I celebrated my first Valentines Day with my first meatball and my first cupcake! The meatball left me looking like a saucy Phantom of the Opera. The cupcake didn't last long. In fact, neither of them did!
