He

He:
- Is getting so tall. The tallest boy in his class. I predict he will be taller than me by age 12.
- is a voracious reader. He reads everything. Currently it is the Harry Potter series. Love that we can talk about the books and discuss our favorite parts.
- still lives for Lego.
- is in the Minors this year in baseball. His team is the mud cats. I am very proud of the commitment he has shown and how he has worked hard. It was a big change for him, in years past he got to be on the same team as his friends. This year there was tryouts and the coaches picked teams. So he ended up on a team where he only knew one other boy. He's done great at making new friends.
- loves to have fun. Video games, playing outside, being a goof with his friends. You name it and he can make it fun!
- likes to draw. Gets that from his dad.
- is a good boy and will always be my first baby (even though he'll be 9 next month....sniff,sniff).

Back in the saddle again

Well, after falling off the blogging wagon for quite a while, I have set a goal for myself to try to keep up a bit more. I'm not promising anything big, but Mike got me an iPad for Christmas, so I can actually veg in front of the T.V. And blog at the same time. For instance, right now I'm watching a VH1 special on Foo Fighters while composing this post. I am such a multi-tasker!

I will probably take the next few posts to update on each person in our little family, but for now let me just say that we are all doing well. Very busy but happy and healthy. If you are still reading this poor neglected little blog, give me a shout out in the comments. It's always fun to know who your audience is! Here is the most recent family picture, taken at Thanksgiving at my parents' house in Idaho.
