Dylan has been doing great in soccer this year. Before the first practice, he told me that he didn't want to play soccer, he wanted to play baseball. (I'm guessing it's because he spent the week with his cousins who all play baseball!) I told him that we already signed up for soccer this year, so we need to give it a try. During the first practice, he came running over to me to get a drink of water and said that he really doesn't like soccer. I think it was because they were warming up and running back and forth on the field. I told him to get back out there. After practice was over, he decided that he really does like it! Silly boy!
Dylan has been doing great and it's so fun to see how much they pick up in such a short time frame! Ricky has enjoyed playing in the backyard with him and working on some skills. His favorite position is defense, but he does play all of them. He scored his first goal on May 5th! We were so proud of him! They don't officially keep score at this age level, but he sure was excited to score a goal! The games are so fun to watch because the kids are still learning. Some of the kids just play in the dirt, while others take the ball the wrong direction! It's so much fun to see Dylan learning so much about soccer, Ricky's favorite sport!
Ethan finds some entertainment on the sidelines with grandpa!
We had a busy weekend! Ricky took Friday off and we landscaped the side of the house. It was a work in progress, and needed some repairs. It took about 4 hours, but we got it done! Ethan was great for us and took a 4 hour nap! It looks great and it's so nice to have the side done! Saturday, Dylan had a soccer game and then my mom helped us plant a garden. I have wanted to start one for the past 4 years, and just haven't gotten around to it. It was so nice to have her help, as I am still new to this. Dylan and Lauren had a blast helping us play in the dirt! What a wonderful day!
We planted some onions, cilantro, green beans, watermelon, strawberries, carrots, cucumber, zucchini, tomato, and peppers. Hopefully we will get something out of our hard work!
Mother's day was great, too! Ricky and the kids made me breakfast in bed! Yum! Church was great, and then we went to Ricky's parent's house for dinner. After dinner, we enjoyed the beautiful day by going for a walk to see the cows. Ethan was so excited and got a little too close to the electric fence. Luckily, it didn't shock him too bad! I don't know if he will ever learn! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family!
