Reflections of Motherhood

Puddle Splashing

Last night we went out and played on the road with a remote control car of Joshua's and he found more fun in running through the mud puddles. I have found that this is the main reason I love living here now. I love that we can play in the middle of the street and not have to worry about someone driving their car 40 mph down a 30 mph street. It was so quiet except for Joshua's laughing and screaming. My adorable baby boy is growing up so fast.

Joshua's First Baseball Game

Last night we took Joshua to his first baseball game. He really enjoyed it and loved Spike (the mascot for the Round Rock Express). He had a hot dog and sips from our soda. He loved the ice the best. We took him to the Kids Fun Zone and let him run around on the playscape, which he LOVED. Our seats were in the sun so this took us away from them for a bit till the sun set. While I was getting us another drink Joshua got to give Spike a high-five and spent the rest of the game watching for him and would get so excited when he would see him out on the field. After the game the kids were able to run the bases, but after watching for a while we realized that no other little ones Joshua's age were running so we opted to wait till next year. We got to watch a fireworks show right after the game. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to do it again.

When we got to the game...Daddy and Joshua

Eating some pizza

Watching them play ball

Going down the slide

Waving to Daddy

Having a drink

For some reason he would squeeze his eyes shut and sit there for a minute

Clapping his hands for the Home Run

Getting loud like the reader board said too

He's Driving

Nana sent Joshua some presents and yesterday we received one of the packages...A Cozy Coupe. It arrived just as we were sitting down for dinner, not that it meant anything to Joshua other than he had a car and it was in a box and neither Mama or Dada were going to open the box...needless to say we opened the box and spent two hours putting it together. It probably would have gone much faster if we hadn't had a mini helper grabbing at everything and then complaining that he couldn't get in the car while we were working on it.

Looking at his box

Trying to open it

Helping Daddy read the directions

Dancing over the back bumper

Helping

Well, it works, even without a door

Ooops

Just couldn't wait at all

First thing this morning after coming down

All completed

All Smiles!!!
