Globetrotters

Globetrotters are in town and we decided to go check out the action.  Mommy used to go when she was little and said it was super fun, and we have to agree.  Afterwards, we even got basketballs and had each of the team sign them.  Next year, we're going to bring our basketball team along as well!

Victoria's Unicorn Party

How cool is that?  A real live unicorn for us to ride!  Happy Birthday, Victoria Pearl.\\

Booster-thon

Tripp's school has a new fundraiser this year - the Booster Thon.  He's been working on getting pledges for each lap he runs and he wants to run 35 or 40.  He's been calling family, friends and anyone who will listen because he has his eye on some really great prizes (and it's a great cause!).  The event was a huge success and everyone had a great day together.

Winter Baseball Camp

Tripp has found a new love in baseball and in preparation for spring ball, he attended a baseball camp put on by UT baseball.  What?  UT BASEBALL?  He was such a champ though and let them know he was an Aggie!  That made daddy proud for sure.  Here's to a winning season!

6 months

Ms. Pudgy Pudge is 6 months already and is so different than the rest of us at this age.  She's like an 'old soul' and seems very pensive most of the time.  It may just be because she's #4 and the rest of us are crazy.  She's 16.2 lbs and 26 inches long.  She has some thighs on her but according to the doctor, she's 50th percentile in weight and height.  Hmmm....we might want to check again.  She laughs and smiles all of the time and thinks we are so funny.  She especially thinks it's funny when Tripp runs in place.  Who knew?  I mean full on belly laugh!  She's sleeping through the night still but has been since about 4 months old so that makes mommy happy. Now, if we could just get Levi to sleep through the night and stop wandering around the house, then we'd really be set.  Feet are a new 'find' and she definitely likes to 'talk' to us.  The girl also has some hair and mommy has been considering a haircut.  It covers her eyes!  Lucky Lexi instead of scissors, mommy opted for some cute hair clips instead.  She's just plain awesome and we love her more and more each day. 

 

Sleepover

Tripp thought it would be fun to have a few friends over to start the new year and mommy thought that was a great idea!  We made a fort kit, prepared for s'mores and had a large time with snacks and lots of screen time.  After it got dark, daddy took us all on a bear hunt!  Yep - we all had our very own flashlights and wandered through the woods (around the house a couple of times) looking for any bears before setting up camp to make s'mores. 

Levi-ism

It's going to be a great year!
