Never Fear!

This guy

told me this morning that he was practicing his spins so he can save the world.

Don't you feel better now?
Have a nice weekend!

This Week

This Week...

Brooke is telling everyone "I Daddy's Princess" with the cutest lisp ever.

Will has been playing
all day, every day
with a bike helmet on his head.
Hey - safety first.

Jack was none-too-happy that dear ole' Mommy wasn't going on the zoo field trip. But he got over it and had a great time. And he is Star of the Week. His 3 wishes? A dog, a cat and a clock.
No, no and you already have one.

This Week...

We celebrate this little guy turning 2.

And we have the return of this cute couple we have not seen since Christmas.

This Week...
Is a good one!

One For The Books

I was in my usual setting tonight...

Driving the car with all the kids.
Alvin and The Chipmunks playing "Single Ladies" in the background.
Me talking on the phone to Julie.

As I was talking about something (or nothing!) with Ju, I hear this little voice say:
"Excuse me, Mama, excuse me?"

"Yes, Jack, what is it?"

"Mama, what does "blah, blah, blah" mean?"

After hysterically laughing, Aunt Ju had the perfect answer:

"Just tell him it means "yada, yada, yada"!"

Ahhh...to be 5 again. Life would be so easy...

Blah, blah, blah...

Ready For The Weekend

This is how we found Will a few nights ago...

The next night we found him asleep on the floor.
Think he is a little exhausted from all the outdoor play?!

I don't know about you, but I am glad it's the weekend (almost) and I am prayin' for a nap.
I think Will is too.
Happy Friday!

Hornets Are A Lot Like Rhinos...

In soccer, that is.

Will started the soccer season today with his 1st game and a new uniform - yellow! Just like Jack's T-Ball uniform...weird. The Rhinos officially re-named themselves The Yellow Hornets before the start of the game. Pretty fitting, seeing as they buzzed all around that field!

Will did pretty well for the 1st game - he kicked the ball in the right direction, only picked it up once or twice and was pretty close to scoring a few times. Even Jack said "Wow, Mom. Will is a lot better this time than he was last time."
Thanks, Professional-Athlete-Jack.

I love this picture...

After the opposing team scored a goal, Will put his arms around these 2 guys and told them "It's ok."

Even Grandpa got in on some of the action!

Is this Andy, Jr. or what?!

My favorite part? When Will was guarding the goal (which he knew to do without anyone telling him to!) he was "talkin' smack" to the other team saying "Ain't gonna kick that ball in here. I am waayyy too fast. I'm gonna git it!"

Like I said...Andy, Jr. or what?!

"Put Me In Coach...I'm Ready To Play!"

Today was the first day of The Goshorn Spring Sports Schedule. Jack is playing t-ball on Saturdays and Will is playing soccer on Sundays. So you can figure out what our weekends are going to be like thru June! As if you needed to guess - Andy will be an assistant for both teams.

Jack started with a big parade at a local park to kick-off the season and introduce EVERY team in the organization. That was one long parade.

The Golden Gloves

After the parade we headed over to our field and had our first practice and game.
Can you say too cute, hilarious and hot mess all at the same time!

First at bat for #12.

MY Golden Boy!

Of course, Jack had the biggest cheering section. Us Goshorns travel in packs!
Grandparents Goshorn, Uncle Eric and Aunt Leslie and Uncle Skip and Graham all came out to cheer Jack on!

Not too much noise from this peanut gallery.

Brooke did really well for being at a ballpark for over 2 hours.
With little lunch, no nap and all the fresh air and sun...
