So the last time I posted, back in January, I said I would have video of Ty playing basketball. Umm, Tyler not only started playing basketball, he finished it. Not only that, he has gone on to soccer and baseball. Oh yeah, Ellie has started playing soccer too. And guess who got volunteered to help coach all three? Now that I am officially helping coach, and Melissa has her hands full with Drew, I don't think I will be boring you with too many sports pictures.So lets see. Tyler did great this year at basketball, often scoring several times in one game, and being very aggressive on defense - can we say 'foul'? As for soccer, he is really enjoying it. He helped lead the team to victory in their last game by scoring 2 goals in the first half, then switching to goalie the second half. It was the first time he has played goalie, but he made some great saves. Must be the coaching. So far, baseball is just practice. Ty has a big adjustment to make, since this is the first year of machine pitch.
Ellie is super excited to be playing soccer this year. I was spectacular in coaching her team to a 5 - nothing loss. But the girls definitely had fun, so it wasn't a total loss (pun intended). She is also getting ready for a dance recital next month. She likes dancing, but not the practicing part.
And Drew keeps growing. He is long and lean (95% length, 50 percentile weight - where does he get that from?). Still babbling away, with an occasional da-da or ma-ma- having no idea what he's saying. He is eating more baby food and just starting to crawl. For now, his preferred means of locomotion is scooching or rolling. Can't leave that rascal alone for more than 20 seconds without him finding trouble. Don't let the sweet looks fool you.
