My baby turned 7

Carter turned 7 in November. We insisted that he wanted a cake that looked like a fish aquarium that was in a cake book I bought on clearance at Barnes and Noble. So, I gave it my best shot. We had a little party at our house with our family and Grandma Polly and Grandpa Pete. He’s always bummed about not having a “friend” party, but his birthday is always around Thanksgiving and we are always on track break, so it’s hard to have those kinds of parties.

He said he loved the cake … hopefully I won’t have to do too many more because I am definitely not that creative on my own.

Carter’s Y-ball season

I love the YMCA basketball program right now. The boys are all at the age that they still don’t care if they win or lose and just love to dribble the ball down the court and shoot it. Carter gets so excited about the whole thing. I enjoy it sooooo much more than watching him play soccer. That’s the former athlete in me getting frustrated ;-). We also really like this coach, he has been really great for all the boys playing.

New pics of the Kids

We had some new pics taken of the kids last fall, so definitely need to be redone again. They were pretty darn cute though.

Let’s try this again

I’ve decided that I really am not a good blogster. I can’t seem to make myself sit down and update. I know I should be better, but life seems to get away from me. I have a bit more time on my hands right now for a variety of reasons … Ryan decided not to play football, Kennedy’s soccer coach decided to be a complete dipstick loser and disbanded their team instead of letting the other parents coach … yes, Jeremy Canning, I am talking about you, you idiot … hopefully you Google your name sometime and this post comes up. So, I’ve decided to try and start updating stuff from the last year, at least so the family can see pictures if they don’t have Facebook. That, I’ve been pretty good at updating.
