Jumping

A video of Joshua jumping... and "carrying Su-nana"

Playing "Baseball"

JT and I were playing outside yesterday and he told me that we were going to play baseball. I was naturally excited to play a game like that with my son.

He ran into the garage and emerged with a soccer ball... hmmm I thought... we seem to be a little confused.

I was wrong, we are VERY confused about how to play baseball.

He showed me where the two bases were. I was instructed to stand on one. He stood on the other and said, "I am going to say hike, throw the baseball, and then we tackle."

So sure enough. He stood on a base. Held a soccer ball in the air. Yelled "Set, Hike!" Threw the ball. and then we tackled.

So we are a bit confused about our sports, but we had fun.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

My team, the White Sox, were eliminated from playoff hopes due to their inability to win against the Twins. So I decided to see if I could get some dirt cheap tickets to a game. I found some $5 tickets and took Joshua on Sunday night.

We made it through 5 1/2 innings and then, because it was 2 hours after his bed time, we left. Some highlights:

1 - Meeting the "Green White Sox"
2 - Seeing the bugs fly around in the lights up above.
3 - Seeing the dark -- Joshua was very confused about how the sky could be dark, but everything was light -- I guess big beams of lights don't make sense to a 3 year old.

Raspberry Picking

On Saturday we had a grand ol time picking raspberries as a family. We found a great pick-your-own place and walked away with over 2lbs for a great price.

Joshua's favorite part was the hay-bale maze. I carried Susannah on my shoulders and chased Joshua in the maze for a long time.

Lots of fun. Enjoy the pics.
