Adelyn's First T-Ball

Adelyn is really loving t-ball!  She asked several times during the fall and winter to play and she was able to play this spring. There is so much sequencing required in t-ball/baseball but the kids have really come a long way in learning the routine and developing their muscle coordination.  Here's another friend on her team and also a video of her batting!

New Phrases...End of May 2014

I have done a terrible job updating in the past few months!!  The kids have continued to grow as well as say and do new things.

I'll just begin with a few cute things Adelyn has said. I really should remember to write more of them down...I would have had much longer page!

Every morning when I ask Adelyn to get dressed she says, "Okay Mom. Is it hot, cold, in the middle or soggy?"
Never mind that winter is over and there is not much chance that it's cold...although San Antonio does have a lot of cloud cover in the morning making it cooler which validates "in the middle."  Now soggy......she must either mean that it's wet, or she's intelligently combined rainy and foggy into one and is saving herself time by choosing one word. :)

Adelyn learned a few knock knock jokes such as the one with "boo who?  don't cry!"  She tried to make up a few of her own. She started making up a whole bunch. I guess by the last one she was actually getting tired of me saying my part of the joke...."Such n such who?"...even though she was the one asking.....So this time she said "Knock Knock", I said "Who's there?", she said, "Adelyn" and I said "Adelyn who?"  Realizing she was ready to move on to something else she just said, "Adelyn MYSELF!"  Okay....I'm more than happy to be done with knock knock jokes.  Let's move on.

Commonly used phrases by Adelyn:

That was terrific!  (one time specifically was while watching the pinewood derby)
This is fascinating me! (usually when riding her bike really fast)
Dad, I am officially done! (at the dinner table)
