"Take me out to the ball game..."

Last Saturday night we were able to go to the Bee's game with the Richard's family. Cooper has been looking forward to this for the last month. I think this is the 3rd year doing it, Charlie is able to get his brother's suite and take all of us. The boys have a blast.....well, all the boys except for Bode. On the way down he fell asleep so life was awful for him. He screamed for probably more than half of the game. Everyone was probably ready to rip our heads off because we wouldn't give in to taking him out of the suite to run around. Then finally like good parents do...we gave in, Court and Matt took him for a walk around the baseball field and then he came back pretty happy. And then there was Peiton that was fighting a ear infection, so she wasn't the most pleasant little lady either. But we lucked out and had some awesome food and had fun visiting and watching the Olympics....go USA! And go Bee's...you need the as much of luck as you can get, they weren't looking so hot. Thanks for the fun night everyone!

Coop's first black eye

The other night Cooper and Collin were practicing baseball. Collin was throwing grounders and Coop was really getting into it so he would dive to try to catch the ball in his mitt and one bounced up and popped him right in the eye. This would be his first "mouse" so they say. There were a few tears shed and he was a little nervous to go back to school the next day. The eye ended up not being as bad as we thought it would be, thank goodness. I think it is kind of cute.Right after the hit, the picture doesn't give it justice.
A day after the hit.

Go Jaxx!

Cooper has officially started baseball season! Yesterday was his first game and he did a great job. It is machine pitch and his first time up to bat he nailed it, he wasn't quite sure what to do after he hit the ball, but he soon found out. He was super excited that he hit it and did not have to use the T. Last night he told me he wanted baseball to be everyday...I am way glad that he is in a sport that he is super excited for. Go Jaxx!
