will be a new start! I'm just going to do a quick update of the last (almost) 2 months then I'll let you all know about our exciting spring break!! (in a separate post)
1st off, Jacob started Little League. He is on a great team with a really great coach. His team name is the Giants. He's happy to be playing for his new home town team. The coach is encouraging and teaches the kids at their level. Jacob has improved over the last several weeks. He's only played a couple games (because of rain), but now that it is nicer out we should be playing more.
Both kids started swim lessons at the end of March. They are now in their 2nd session. I am really happy we started early this year (especially since we didn't get a chance last summer). In the 1st 3 weeks they BOTH are swimming by themselves. They still have a lot to learn, but they have improved greatly since last summer. They will be so ready for the warm weather and swim time this summer!!
Grandma came to visit for her spring break!! The kids did not know about this surprise visit, and they were so excited to see her and show her their new town!! We couldn't get out as much as I hoped, because it rained nearly every day (heck, we even had a tsunami warning and a tornado warning during her visit). We got out to see Alcatraz on Jacob's 1/2 day of school, and that day was actually a very beautiful day. It was just nice to spend time with her. We are all looking forward to this summer, the kids have a list of activities they want to do with her.
And Jacob turned 7 YEARS OLD!! We celebrated his birthday early with Grandma, then we had a party with his classmates and friends at BounceU (inflatable bouncing play place). He had a great time. This will be a birthday he'll remember. His big gift from us was a Nintendo 3DS. He was beyond thrilled when he opened that!! :-) He is a growing boy. He weighs just about 59 pounds and is just about 49 inches tall!!
All my kids make me happy!! :-)
Here are some pictures...
