T-BALL

Dominic has had 3 T-ball games so far (one was rained out). He's really enjoying it. We found him a bat light enough to swing & he's actually hit a couple pitches! Usually he's just out dancing in the outfield or goofing off with his friends! But that's what you're supposed to do in T-ball right? :] One of his friends (& neighbors) is on his team so he was happy about that. I love watching him in his little uniform!

Gino just enjoys eating his way through Dominic's games. He loves going to

the concession stand... he now knows that a quarter will get him 3 lollipops :] And they b

oth (ok, Andy too) need to have an ice-crea

m cone after each game too!

Dominic & Gino recently went fishing & had lots of fun! Dominic even bates his hook & takes the fish off when he catches it! Gino just touches them.

Every week we try to get together with my friend Sunshine & her little girl Addison. Lately it's been nice so we've been going to the park. The kids have so much fun together. I can't even tell you how much I LOVE watching our kids play together....we were inseparable all through High School so it's great to have kids close in age (Addison is only 3 months younger than Gino).

Our latest garage sale find was a Hot Wheels Jeep. The boys LOVE it! The battery doesn't last real long since our yard isn't exactly flat ....and Dominic manages to find every little hill possible to go up & down (when there's not mud close by). We now have a 4-wheeler & the jeep so they can race.... both very good deals we couldn't pass up :]

We are celebrating Dominic's 6th Birthday this coming Sunday.... since b

oth Momo & Emma are having knee surgeries on his actual Birthday (Wednesday the 17). He's excited about having a Batman party! Will post pics next week!!

Gino has been doing really well peeing on the potty lately..... but that's all he'll do. He keeps saying he'll do more on his "Summerday" (translation for Gino speak: Birthday). I plan on making him stick to that! We might get him potty-trained after all!!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed! His favorite place to pee outside is on daddy's truck tires though! :]

The kids discovered that their are 5 kittens down at the barn, so we spend a lot of time down there. Dominic has already named them all. He's got one little black one that just loves him...it's the friendliest out of the bunch, but we're working on it. And no, we will not be bringing one home, Copper doesn't need any kitty treats. There are 3 yellow ones & two black ones.

We are looking forward to warmer weather soon because Emma's pool is open now. Dominic was in it last Sunday but it was FREEZING! He did get in with only his arm floaties so I was very proud of him.... Gino, on the otherhand, I'm not sure how he's gonna be this year. Last year we couldn't keep him out!
