She's got a grip

Since she was old enough to grasp on to things, April has had an amazing grip. Pap likes to call it her "gecko grip" :) I took these pictures the other night and thought it was pretty good for her to be able to "palm" a baseball at 13 months old :)

hmm...what do we have here?

oh, a baseball. I got it, no prob...

Dad, what do I do with it now?


Throw it? Left-handed pitching is where it's at!

I have such a strong grip, I can't seem to let go.


Just hanging out with the ball I can't let go of...

Um, you want me to hold this too?


How about I just kick it instead?


Mom, do you see me holding this ball upside-down?? 
I've got mad skills.

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!

Crazy May

 As is typical with three active kids, we've had a busy last few weeks! Photos coming soon of the dance recital, Peter's birthday party, school activities and more :)  Here is our May started: No power for 5 days! A wind-storm went through our area and several power lines were knocked over. We did have school for 3 days. The weather was perfectly sunny and 70 degrees, so it wasn't too bad :)

Happy 4th Birthday Chloe!
