Today I turned 34, so we had a nice family dinner with a home made Ice cream cake for desert. Melissa and Jacob did an excellent job with the cake. It’s nice to know that Ice Cream cakes are a treat Violet wont have to miss out on because of her allergies.
Today’s picture is of Jacob and his Nan. I snapped it while he was talking to my mommy about Blastball. It was such a cute moment I thought I should capture it.
Today Jacob was supposed to start Blastball, but the rain kept it from happening. We did get his uniform though. He looks like such a little boy. He’s next scheduled game is this Saturday, weather permitting I’ll post more photos then.
Today after school I took Jacob to Mastermind Toys to pick out his reward for going to bed on time without a fight for 14 nights in a row. He was allowed to choose one playmobil that was under $20. It was not an easy decision for him. But after much debate and explaining which were in his budget, he finally choice the Holiday Compact Play Set.
After Violet’s little incident this weekend her car seat cover needed a cleaning. So we pulled it off and washed it, today while looking at her seat, I was struck by how much of it is just Styrofoam… I guess that’s why they have an expiry date and are good for only one accident.
Today was a rare Monday that found both Melissa and me home. We were hoping to do more than just house work, but with rain forecasted for the afternoon it didn’t look good. So in the morning we packed up Jacobs T-Ball stuff and some soccer balls and headed to the big park. Jacob tried some batting, catch and even some soccer. It was a great morning.
Today’s picture is from our families Easter Egg hunt this morning. Both Jacob and Violet got really into it. So much so they discussed strategies for finding all the eggs.
Today the sun came out and the temperature skyrocketed. So after Violet’s nap we headed out to the park. While there Jacob and Violet enjoyed the swings with friends.
A pair of tickets for the Bluejays, were offered to Melissa and me. The seats alone were too good to pass up. First row in the 200 level just off home plate. I thought about taking Jacob, but it was an evening game and with Jacob’s new bedtime routine I wasn’t sure he’d be able to handle it. Especially if the game went long, and as it turned out it was a 11 inning affair so its problem a good thing that I didn’t bring him along. Instead it I took my mom, It was my way if thanking her for all the great stuff she does for us. The game itself was great, the Jays tied the Rays in the 8th and won it in the 11 with a walk off home run by Jonny Mac.
With tomorrow being Good Friday, Jacob brought home the Easter basket he made at school. It’s a cute little basket and card.
