Petting the cows

Sunday, September 13, 2009

We took the kids to Cal Poly to visit the baby cows. Matt was brave and petted them, Annie too, but Kate....







Are you ready for some FOOTBALL?

We signed Matt up for flag football and it turned out to be a nightmare. He had 2 hour long practices and one 1 1/2 hour games a week. I think a lot of the frustration we felt came from the fact that his coach was very serious about winning and hardly let Matt play in the games and then got frustrated with him for goofing off on the sideline. It was for 5-7 year olds and it wasn't suppose to be about winning. Also, this particular league is a tackle league and so the flag team has a lot of contact and nobody stops it. Matt was one of the smallest on the team (being one of the youngest) and he was thrown around quite a bit. We were happy when the season ended and we don't plan on doing it ever again (well I don't, but Brandon loves football and says when he's older he's doing it....We'll see....) Watch this video of Matt, he was so cute running around even though he didn't understand the point of the game...




At Least He found something worthwhile to do with his padded pants.

Annie-9 months

Annie is 9 months. She has 4 teeth and is crawling and pulling to stand on everything. She plays peek-a-boo, and patty cake and waves bye bye. She says Dada for everything. Isn't she so cute?
