First T-Ball Game

Eli had his first T-ball practice and game last week. It was so fun to watch him with the other little kids on his team. They all wanted to run after the ball once they hit it instead of running to the base. Kaelub isn't too sure how he likes being their coach, but he's doing a great job. There are 6 kids on his team and one of them is actually in Eli's preschool class! So he already had an instant friend when we held the first practice. Ava enjoyed taking a turn running the bases with daddy and wearing Eli's hat while he was up to bat.

Sew Fun

I am in no way experienced when it comes to sewing. But, I love to sew simple projects that don't take too long & don't stress me out. :) So when I saw a lace layered skirt tutorial, I had to try one for Ava. I came up with my own measurements to fit her, but this is the link for the tutorial I used for the rest.

Eli's 1st Swim Lessons

We signed Eli up for swim lessons at our favorite pool and he just finished his first class--"tadpole". I was a little nervous because even though he loves water, sometimes he acts like he is afraid to get in when we go swimming. But he did great! He liked his teacher & had his friend Brookie in the same class. The first set of pictures are from his first day. He really liked the rings & blowing bubbles underwater. Then the last pictures are from the last day when we all stayed to go swimming. The "shrimp" classes were all full for September so we have to wait until October for his next set of lessons, but that's probably good since he starts T-ball in just a week and a half. Guess who his coach is? Kaelub! Should be a lot of fun.
