Game ON!!!


Cruz, Aunt Kelly & Uncle Christian came to visit me. We had awesome weather to play outside. We went for walks, rode the 4 wheeler, climbed logs, rolled in leaves, got knocked over by the 50 dogs running around, tried to go in the creek, played at the park and roasted hot dogs on the camp fire...oh and we slept a little:( Cruz and played cars and had yelling matches to see who could screech the loudest! We played hard.
On a side note, Jack got his cast removed Thursday right before the Tobars got here. Doc said he is good to go. At first he walked around like he still had it on with his arm and shoulder kinda up in the air, but now he's back to normal...carrying cars in both hands trying to do 20 things all at once. Jack just had a birthday on St. Patty's Day, he turned 15 months old! This little old man has finally gotten in 2 more teeth - one on the bottom and one more on the top. We are at a whopping near 6 teeth with 2 more about to break through. Hopefully this means our Sherwin eater will enjoy some other textured foods soon:) We have quite the picky eater on our hands. He's not a fan of much beyond his avacados, applesauce, yogurt, cheese and fruit:( So green veggies, rice, noodles and meat are out of the question...auh! We'll keep trying.


My ball throwing skills as you can see are quite distinct. First, the shoulder wind-up,then the shoulder set , launch and drop...yes, behind his back. This has slowly progressed to a drop in front of him rather than behind. We are hoping with more practice, the ball might go more than a few inches in front of him. Our little pitcher is going to need some practice this summer:)

We are ready for Spring!!

We had such a beautiful weekend with lots of playing outside which = one happy, tired little boy! Jack's doing great with his new cast. Last week we went to see Dr Phil, an orthopedic, who re X-rayed and casted him. Doc said he is healing well and will only have to wear his cast for 2 more weeks (3 total). No surgery which was great news. Jack did much better at this 2 hr appt. He made lots of friends and flirted with all the nurses. He kept flashing his cheesy grin - he fake smiles so big he cant see out his eyes, all the while tilting his head back. It's priceless!
I'm getting so big!
My buddy Brock came over last night for a bonfire. I had a difficult time sharing my toys. We both seemed to keep wanting the same toy. I just kept crying so someone would see that my toys were being taken from me. I was pathetic. My mom kept saying that this is just the beginning to learning how to share. I don't think I'm going to like this at all! In the end though, we had a great time playing on the screened in porch. Mom cleaned it all out and took the old furniture to the GoodWill. We had the whole porch to ourselves aside from my tents, tunnels and hoop that my mom quickly got out of the living room. I think she may be moving me outside...

Great weekend! At our 2nd bonfire of the new year - this time at Aunt Di & Uncle Joe's. Gosh I look even smaller in this pic. Just when I thought I was getting bigger:)
So this picture doesnt show the depth - I was wanting to keep going down to the water. My dad said it's only a 10 ft drop off to the creek - that doesnt sound so far. Buddy and Nelly do it all the time!
This is going to be such a great summer! Only concern I have is that I think I overheard my mom say something about using one of Buddy's leashes for me? I wonder why?

A few more adventures...
